This place is a PARADISE…read more My friend introduced me to this convenient yet uncrowded barn. Manuel, the owner, is most likely this nicest man you'll ever meet and both himself and his wife are very patient and kind people- always smiling! With the help of Manuel, I scored a awesome lease situation and now pay a very fair price to ride a great horse all month long. He even offered me free tack to use as a loaner until I got all set up with my own gear. The barn and property are clean, tidy, and casual. Beautiful views and trails, and lots of peace and quiet at this location. If you're a positive horse person, you'll love it here...

What a relaxing place to ride and get away from it all! Since moving my business here, it has been…read morea real pleasure to come to work. Cindy has been SO accommodating and the horses are happy with the excellent care they have received by the staff. Abel and Tony have taken the time to see that the horses get what they need. There is new footing in the round pen and the arena thanks to Leanne andTeri. I look forward to riding and training here for many years to come! Plus, it's great having an indoor arena to ride in during the winter! I highly recommend this facility after having ridden at several others.

I recently moved my horse to BHE from a barn in SoCal and I have been so very happy I did! Kate and…read morethe trainers hear TRULY CARE and I can tell how much time they've spent with my horse. My horse has had a chronic problem with white line disease in his hoof and BHE has not only brought in an excellent farrier (shout out to James McCracken!!) but the team has treated his hoof TWICE A DAY! and he's finally on his way to recovery. Like most owners, I just don't have the time to be at the barn every day and I rely upon the team to take care of my horse. I am so grateful to have found a barn that makes a point of giving each horse what it needs (and without upcharging me for every added thing) rather than just tossing some hay in their stalls and leaving the owner to figure out the rest. BHE has an extensive staff of experienced people who work beautifully together and go out of their way to provide the kind of personalized care I would do on my own if I could. I will also ratify what others have said about the atmosphere at BHE. I am relatively new to the horse world but I have definitely experienced the snooty, catty, gossipy behavior that gives it such a bad rap and BHE IS NOT that. Any time I have spent there has been such a pleasure. If you're looking for a barn that will be the "happy place" for both you and your horse, I think you'll enjoy being part of the BHE family.

I don't know why I Even loaded my truck full what a Mistake. I was at least taking the Dry, but come am it was a Nasty mess, I couldn't even use it Nor could I give it away. I was also Picking up for 2 friends and they passed hard.

I grew up riding. It has been a forever passion of mine that, after moving to SF, I quickly had to…read morerenounce. For the past 5 years I have been desperate to fill that gap but it just never seemed to work out for one reason or another.... As fate would have it, I ended up meeting one of my now dearest friends (on Yelp! no less) who also felt the huge hole left in her heart by lack of horse time. We embarked on a quest to find a stable that would get us back to where we used to be as riders and then some. We spent countless hours scouring the internet, making lists via Google docs and driving all over the Bay Area visiting potential stables. We rode at a few here and there, but none ever stuck. We were getting discouraged, especially after one of the trainers we had hoped to work with ended up moving to SoCal. It was actually through her recommendation that we found Sara...and well...the rest is history. Sara has been one of the best things to happen to me (and Kim). She is everything you could possibly want in a riding instructor, mentor and friend. Her horses are above and beyond what you would find in a typical schooling horse and she takes impeccable care of them. Kim and myself have grown tremendously as riders under Sara's care. She pushes us, is beyond patient, enthusiastic, honest and supportive. She herself is an expert horsewoman with years of riding and professional show experience under her belt. Riding with Sara is my therapy. Every week I'm like a giddy child eagerly awaiting my horse time. I don't know what I would do without her!
