We love the integrity they hold as a business, the affordability to ride weekly, and appreciate the expertise in coaching us on their lesson horses! (There are all types of horses for all abilities).

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Z Equestrian in Costa Mesa! My 6-year-old daughter takes English riding lessons with Miss Emily, who is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and truly amazing with young riders. Both Miss Lexi and Miss Emily are wealths of knowledge and handle their students with such care. They don't just teach you how to sit on a horse; they focus on building strong foundations and fostering a genuine love for the animals. The communication is seamless, and the pricing is very fair. In a hobby that can get expensive quickly, we find this so much more fulfilling (and affordable!) than a Magic Key to Disneyland. My daughter is already dreaming of riding every single horse in the stable!

How absolutely blessed I was to find Zequestrian! Everything, absolutely everything, is perfect. Zara, my instructor, is patient and reassuring. I'm 100% comfortable in everything we do. She's intuitive and positive, gently correcting my mistakes in a way that makes me feel good about trying and really complimenting my successes. So much encouragement! She's knowledgeable and astute, I learn so much in the hour I'm there. I'm exactly where I want to be and feel inspired to keep going. The stable is always clean and organized. It's a joy to walk on the property. If you're looking to take lessons or have a child you want to get started, look no further...go to Zequestrian. Sara made it very easy to get started and has made me feel so, so welcome. Love, love, love this place- everything about it.

They are very strict about the temprature range for when they bring out the small animals. It had rained the night before & so the electric rides were not yet open (a bit of standing water). I was told that the owner is a lawyer, so hence the necessary detailed entrance waiver. Petting & feeding the various guinea pigs was very therapeutic. They stay in a tray next to you, not on lap. We enjoyed feeding the larger animals as well. Watching the varieties of chickens scurry about, as well as children's reactions, was amusing. Deffinately a place for small kids, & older adults as well. We stayed more than 1 hour.

She asked us to send a trailer on a certain day then asked him to wait while another family tried the same pony.

I swear she knew I needed a little extra TLC! It made the whole experience so enjoyable and stress-free. I even got to do a tiny bit of trotting, which was such a fun bonus.

I would rather not ride then be under the leadership of these arena clowns. The barn is part of a larger facility and everyone looks at Vogel Equine as an abusive situation. You would have to be blind to buy a horse from this woman. I guarantee you will overpay. It really is about the bottom line here.
