Falcon Ridge Stables

"This stable is located next to the football field where my son plays. During a game delay we decided to walk down to the stable to talk to someone there about my daughter taking lessons. Just wanted to get some info and possibly look at what they offer. She's been doing lessons for about year and half and I'm looking for someplace more advanced for her. Anyways, we made it half way down the driveway and some lady/girl in the stable starts running her mouth saying there's literally a sign that says "no outsiders allowed". I'm not sure if she worked there or if she was just a entitled brat that rides there. I'm thinking she was a rider as she was with a couple of other young girls. Either way, not the the type of girls I would want my daughter riding with. On our walk out of the place we could not locate any signs that said "no outsiders allowed". If this was my business I would be welcoming potential new customers and make sure that other customers aren't running their mouths and setting new customers. Whomever made the comment needs to remember that they were once an outsider themselves ."

"This barn is amazing, I’ve been riding here for years with Charity and she is amazing! They have an excellent selection of lesson horses and sale/lease horses. Everyone here is awesome and very knowledgeable!"

"My daughter has been riding here for almost 5 years and it has become her second home. Her love for it rubbed off on me and now I'm riding too. Charity is amazing and the barn takes excellent care of their horses which is the most important thing for me after safety."

"My littles girls have gone there on Saturday mornings for the past two years. Inviting and friendly environment. Everyone is really helpful and the family focused feeling is there. Highly educational and well ran."

"I'm not quite sure what "Redhead" is referring to but we've been at FRS for about 3 years now and I've found the instructors, albeit "unaccredited highschool girls", extremely experienced who have shown in local GHJA as well as AA shows around the entire South East. At any barn you go to, schooling horses are just that: for schooling. They use these horses because they're well-trained in routines of beginning and intermediate riders and generally safer in the most part. My daughter has advanced extremely well over the last 3 years having moved to this barn from another where she rode for 2 years and didn't even canter let alone jump. Now, she has moved up from "beginner" to a more high end "intermediate" rider with being pushed to move up from "flat" course equitation to competing in IEA and a GHJA competition for hunter/jumper in 2'4" jumps last spring for which she took Reserve Champion. The current instructors challenge their students and push them to be professional as well as focusing on technique. We've recommended and had two friends move to this barn from another local barn where they weren't satisfied. As far as the owners go, there are a lot of riders and responsibility to running a horse farm and most lessons take place on weekends or after school during "off business" hours. But they do live on premises and have always been available to me if needed to answer questions. Riding is like any other sport, you get out of it what you put into it. I've talked to many people who've switched barns out of FRS reputation and many drive long distances just to come here for the instruction and shows."
