What riders say about Wheeling stables

Oglebay Stables

Kenna has been nothing short of amazing! She’s friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. As an adult taking lessons I couldn’t ask for a better instructor! She went outta her way to help my disable son ride a horse for the first time too! Love coming here and would recommend Kenna for lessons for sure!
