An African American woman visited the farm within the past 2 weeks. She was totally disrespected…read more She was cursed out by the owners, the husband and the wife. They also allowed their 4 dogs to approach her. She was very scared and they were very insensitive, very rude. She was told she had no business near the horses all the while it was their staff that escorted her to the back. to look at the horses as she was interested in horseback riding. Shame on these owners

It really teaches how to care for a horse, how to ride and the responsibilities of owning a horse. Children get to ride 1 hour a day.

I have been going to Lakeside since Sept 14. I was brand new, only did riding on vacations with a…read moregroup. In just a few weeks , I had learned so much, there's actually a lot more skill involved than just getting up on the horse and walking with it! Joy had been patient , she knows her horses and she knows who would do well on what horse, just by looking at you ! The horses are all nice. It's in her huge backyard, there is plenty of room to learn in her ring. She offers the best price on town , and I feel there's a little more effort into her lessons because these are her own animals! Joy will teach you the ins and outs . She knows everything, feeding, cleaning, brushing , riding.. "Those who can't do, teach" is NOT how you would describe her because she DOES know everything and also teaches you what she knows!!! Absolutely love it here, it has been one of my best decisions!

Pulled my back out due to the deep wet stalls and paid over $100. In doctors bills. A lot of their horses are in standing stalls with soaked 12" deep packed wet sawdust on wet rubber mats with no fly spray or baking soda. I saw a broken leg and hove issues on the poor horses and the older lady who I think is the owner hitting the horses. The sawdust and floor mats were heavily soaked. Sawdust and hay were previously added ( dumped on top of old ) without cleaning or drying out the stall. Rubber mats are ruined and worthless. Stalls were a foot deep in a wet mess. I hope the owner either sells or puts out more money to hire proper care because no animal deserves to live in those conditions. @lastchancerance @humainesociety or any other animal rights organization, somebody please help these horses escape from this place.

Had a wonderful time today. Sky was our guide and she was awesome. She made our ride super fun…read more There were 4 of us and it was my husband's first time ever riding a horse and we all made it out alive :) Thank you Sky for making our experience unforgettable.

Loch Alsh is a small park centered around a reservoir in the middle of suburban Ambler. Most…read morepeople don't know it's here but it is a pretty break from all the suburban houses and stores. There are picnic tables to use in the warmer weather but the main activity here is fishing. Note - there is no swimming or ice skating allowed. There are three drawbacks to Loch Alsh Park. The first one is that it is noisy as right next to it is the 309 Highway. Second you cannot walk all around the lake as some of the land bordering the lake is private. And finally, St. Mary's Lake and grounds which directly borders Loch Alsh and would be a wonderful and natural extension to this park is also private. Still it's good to know about this small scenic spot if you are in the Ambler area.

Ashford Farm has been my happy place for over 30 years.

Caroline's husband, Bill, and daughter, Jane, help with barn operations, feeding and caring for the horses and menagerie of dogs on-site while expertly matching horses with riders of all ages and levels. The barn is beautiful but not fussy. The horses are friendly, well-mannered, and well-loved, and the lessons are safe and fun. My lesson groups have changed as I've aged, but I'm constantly challenged and enthralled with my weekly riding lesson at Ashford Farm.
