Vicki from Rolling Acres Stable was able to save us a spot in advance. She was good in communicating, and our horse ended up boarding at her place for 6 months. Vicki has lots of experience with horses, and was very helpful in getting our horse settled. She typically keeps 2 horses together in a paddock, and tries to make it a good pairing. Our horse was challenging, but Vicki still did extra services for her (like giving wormer in the spring). I found Vicki to be kind and helpful, and a good source of information about our new state. The barn facilities were safe and in good repair. Highly recommended!

They have a nice indoor arena which has an open plan with the barn so you can see the people and horses in their stalls when you're riding. The arena walls are safe and flat, not the kind you get your leg caught on if your horse runs you into the wall. The footing was very nice and clearly dragged frequently. The have a nice heated observation room, clean bathroom and heated very large tack room. The people who owned the barn were very kind and welcoming and the boarders were nice and seemed close with each other. They have many beautiful horses and seemed to focus on western disciplines as would be expected for the stock horses they specialize in. I can't wait to return!

That's what I get to do here. I've ridden many of the horses and ponies and have always felt safe. Shae owns the barn, trains the horses, and teaches lessons. All of her horses are loved, well-cared for, and do well with riders at all levels. She is a patient instructor, cares about her clients, and is passionate about her business and horses in general. She's also a certified saddle fitter. Weather-permitting, lessons are outside year round. From the outdoor arena, there's a lovely view of a beautiful grassy field where the horses love to graze with a gorgeous tree-lined backdrop. During inclement weather (when it's simply too cold or rainy), there's a very nice, large indoor arena. Lessons are private and semi-private and priced fairly. Shae teaches all ages. I am super happy at this barn. I think the world of Shae as an instructor, trainer, business owner, and person. You're in good hands here, and if you enjoy it half as much as I do, your life will be brighter when you take equestrian lessons at Free Spirit .

If you are looking to start taking riding lessons in the hunter, jumper, or polo disciplines this is without a doubt the best barn in West Michigan. You can board your horse here or take lessons on some of the amazing Meadowview horses. No matter what your level of experience, Meadowview can help you achieve any riding, training and showing goals. From my first pony ride to becoming a national champion, Cathy, Hillary and the whole team at Meadowview have been there every step of the way. I trust them entirely to give my horses the best care possible. They exemplify professionalism and horsemanship and I am honored to be one of their most successful students. Hillary herself is an extraordinary rider whom I admire greatly. I highly recommend attending a summer polo match or Lake Effects Horse Show.
