She is one of the best horse people I've ever come across. She was super fun, knowledgeable and not at all snobby about things we didn't know. The lesson consisted of an hour of training off the horse and then an hour to practice basic riding. We wanted to trot a little bit, but ran out of time and Colleen didn't want to go too fast and risk either of us getting hurt. It was definitely a good move sales-wise, because now both of us really want to come back and continue lessons. It's a bit of a drive, but I'm sure we'll return and recommend it to others!

He matched her with the sweetest trainer Kelli who took the time to decorate the, already beautiful, horse's mane with roses and put a unicorn horn on his bridle. Kelli engaged my niece throughout the entire 45 min lesson with different games. The lesson ended with the horse "taking a bow." After the lesson we sipped on hot chocolate and Kelli took us on a tour of the beautiful property to see the other horses, goats and chickens. It was a magical experience, and one Jessie will remember forever!

Not only is Jill a great trainer but she is very understanding of rider's and their horses. I can not imagine having a better group of boarders at a barn and we all have so much fun together. Jill has managed to craft a very unique experience at McCrae Farm with amazing people and horses. Cannot recommend McCrae Farm enough for anyone looking to board their horse or take lessons. Jill specializes in French Classical dressage but we also have clinics on Quadrille riding, Working Equitation and Liberty.

I really think it's the people that made a horse barn a great place to be. The owners and knowledgeable and caring. The other boarders are fun and have become family. The yearly group activities are not to be missed! Group camping trips, barn contests and holiday parties...it's so great! This place is mainly for the trail riding enthusiast and is located just off the Caledonia Conservancy Trails. With that said there are a few Dressage and Western riders who enjoy showing too. The board price is very fair and more importantly the horses are very happy. Please note: This barn is not a public riding facility. You can't rent horses to ride here. But if you own a horse and need a place to board...Dreamcatcher is the place for you.

Parsley ("her" horse) is all she talks about to anyone who will listen. With her being the youngest of 6 children I would never drive 30 minutes twice a week if this didn't change her world. Schoolwork and chores at home are finished at record speed so she can keep her riding privileges. Our shy little girl is becoming more extroverted and confident the more time she spends with her horse and Kristina. You cannot go wrong with this instructor, she will positively impact your child in more ways than you can imagine! We love you Kristina and Parsley!!
