We had an amazing time riding with Kim. Hilltop Ranch is a small family owned ranch with a couple…read moreof horses and a silly pig. Kim talked to us to see our comfort of riding and experience level. Then we headed over to the barn to see what horses were feeling up for a ride. She chose the horses and saddled them up. Kim truly loves her horses and cares for them with so much compassion. She brushed each one, sprayed them down so the bugs didn't bother them and saddled them up. She made sure our stirrup's fit properly and we loaded up for the ride. Once out of the gate we headed for the trail and then through the woods, crossed a creek and even met some of her neighbors along the ride. We trotted and galloped, my goodness I loved EVERY second of it!!! The horses listened very well. They look to Kim as their leader and will not run without her doing so even if you try to get them to. We will definitely be back when the weather cools down. I love that she doesn't run her horses in summer much because of the heat. This is a wonderful place to ride.

I love horses so I was really excited when my husband booked a ride here. The property is really…read morebeautiful and our attendant, Ian, was very friendly and enthusiastic, and the horses were very sweet. However, the whole experience is pretty basic. It's good if you've never ridden before because the horses are mostly content to move slowly. It seemed like a lot of the horses were rescues and/or older so they're not running anywhere. The place feels less like a stable/horsefarm and more like a home for horses that partially sustains itself by offering rides. The horses didn't seem very well maintained, either. I don't want to leave a negative review because it wasn't bad, it was fine, just not especially exciting or fun. I'd recommend for people who are scared of horses and want to get over that fear, etc.

Plenty of beautiful horses, a petting area, a tree house & a park. We reserved time for the pony ride and petting zoo but it felt like we were rushed through our experience. The women who helped us immediately seemed frustrated because they overbooked 2 large parties along with our reservation, her vibe didn't feel welcoming because of their lack of organization. My kids did the pony ride literally 2 rounds (they wanted to keep going) then they had about 10 minutes in the petting zoo. That costs me around $60 & they do not take credit cards.

I like that they match you with your horse according to your skill level, weight and height, days before you arrive. Everything was organized so we could get the most out of our horseback riding experience. The prices for an hour long ride were very affordable. If you're funny about helmets bring a scarf to wrap your hair. We rode down through a clearing into the water, up and down long scenic fall leaf-covered hills. The instructors took a group shot of us for a nice keepsake. I highly recommend Sheeder Mill Farms for groups of all skill levels.

She was in a pasture with 7 other horses, fighting for food. She had abscesses, and the owner/trainer told me to ride her with those abscesses while she was lame and clearly in pain. She had awful rain rot from not being in shelter, and cuts all over her from being bullied just trying to get food. there is NO grass, knee deep mud. The property is extremely small, no more than 3 acres, with WAY too many horses, and only 10 stalls. Last time I counted there were 25 horses. The conditions are sickening. There is trash everywhere, water troughs are filthy, horses come up lame left and right because of the mud and rocks. They were sliding down the pastures because they couldn't get to water safely. There have been situations when i have been lied to about the care of my horse, and questioned whether she was even fed. There was barely any shavings in her stall, and come feeding time buckets were shared around between horses and rarely cleaned. I am younger and new to horse ownership, but i know that this is no place for a horse to be kept. As far as lessons, i wouldn't recommend it. I got no where, and the owner/trainer does not know nearly as much about riding as she says she does. I was taking lessons on lesson horses, who had visible ribs, and were so underweight they look like they'd been abandoned. The lesson horses shouldn't be in a program, they are underweight and overworked. I am beyond embarrassed to have ever been associated with this barn. The fact that the owner is so blind to see what she is putting her animals through is horrific. New families and boarders are taken advantage of and a fake front is put on making Underhill seem like a great family friendly and welcoming environment, however it is the opposite.
