There are 70 - 80 horses at these barns. Quality of feed is high. Workers are reliable and responsible. Tack rooms are clean and organized. Lakeside has a great reputation in the local horse community. The best farriers, veterinarians, & trainers gladly come here to service the horses. Prices for boarding, lessons are average for the region. Good value.

I boarded my horse here for 5 years. After the economy collapsed, I was unable to pay the last…read moremonths rent. I'd been paying $750 a month for full board for 5 years. The owner was riding my horse, training him and taking care of him completely. After paying $750 for five years, after one month, she "put him out to pasture", which lessened my bill from $750 to $300. He dropped several hundreds of pounds in weight, due to the fact that he was super, super passive- she knew this about him. She called me and told me he wasn't getting any food because the other horses were overbearing and he was overly passive. There was nothing I could do as I'd moved out of state and was working on having him shipped back east. She did nothing to isolate him so he could get some food for himself and watched him starve. I owe her $300. She neglected my horse and starved him after having him on her property for years over a $300 bill. I had moved out of state and told her I needed her to make sure he got on the trailer I'd scheduled for him. She refused. She told me (after taking care of my horse for 5 years) that she refused to show up for a trailer, that she "didn't do that" ... and that I'd have to be there, or schedule someone else to show up and meet with the driver. Of course, in the end, she was there .... of course .. she was there. She made me schedule another person to be there, but, of course, she was there, looking for her $300. I had my boyfriend's mother meet the driver, whom knew nothing about horses, but she agreed to help me because Lakeside told me she would not meet the driver. The owner of this "equestrian center" put my horse on a trailer and refused to send him off with any hay (FOOD). I was unaware that the man driving my horse, would not provide food for him. It was my responsibility to feed him. Lakeside, though she was there, even though she told me she would not be there, did not call me and tell me she was sending him off on a 3,500 mile trailer ride without any food. From California to the east coast of the country. The driver told Lakeside Equestrian Center this and she could have very easily sent him off with two bales of hay- my mother n law would have paid her for them. But no, she didn't. She put him on the trailer with zero food, on a trip from California to the east coast. He was on the road for almost two weeks, with no food. Not sure how the driver or Lakeside can just watch a horse starve. Horrible, horrible, just really horrible. When he arrived on the east coast, he was very thin- I was surprised he was still alive. I worked for months to put weight on him. Never board your horse where money is the main priority. Eventually, you will pay the price ten times over.

I've already been here twice and I want to keep coming back! I recommend this to all my friends who…read morevisit Sacramento. They are in a cute little ranch. When you come in, you can bypass the line to get in and just drive through the cars because they already have the parking included in the ride. We did a 1 hour ride at first and the horses are super fun and nice. The workers are super friendly and they are very knowledgeable. The second time we booked a 2hr session and we learned how to groom and saddle the horse for an hour and then the second hour we rode around the ranch. It is really pretty during sunset. Highly recommend this place! I would definitely come back again. Also, 1hr rides are free for military/veterans. But don't forget to tip!

We had a couple of scary incidents on the ride (not anyone's fault) a drone flew over and scared the horse but they remained very safe during. I felt very comfortable. I would highly recommend coming for a ride. The farm also has quite a few other animals that you can enjoy like cows, llamas, goats etc. Thank you Trail Brothers.

If he looked a little thin, they feed him more . If he wasn't looking right, I got a call and we figured things out. All the horses get the same treatment. Everyone there loves any shape or size horse. The arenas and fields are fun & safe to ride in. All the horse owners are good and fun people to ride with. When I get my next horse this is where he (or she) will live!

I started taking riding lessons with DaNae in late summer 2024 and I am so genuinely pleased with…read moremy experience so far. I went to Los Lagos as a beginner rider. I'll admit, it's pretty daunting to pick up riding as an adult. It's *a lot* to learn! But I appreciate and love how DaNae motivates and challenges me each time I'm there. The facility is so beautiful and it's a huge perk to have a covered arena! And if we can't ride on rare occasions, we've got educational lessons. Everyone I've met at the facility has been welcoming. And I've also been really lucky to take my lessons with a great group of girls. I recently heard that DaNae purchased the property and it's so clear that she's putting so much love into the space. I can only anticipate positive changes ahead. Looking forward to continuing my riding lessons and can't wait to see how much I'll learn in time. Who knows...maybe I'll have a horse of my own and board it at Los Lagos someday!

Becca and Keith have been exceptional at building her confidence and teaching her how to ride, take care of a horse, tack a horse and even coach a mindful piece of managing your emotions around the horses.

She looks forward to summers with the horses, the craft, fun and unforgettable memories. If you are looking for a place/horse trainer/coach this is 100% the place and we highly recommend it!

After getting on my horse, Mr. Bee, I was given a quick tutorial on how to tell the horse to stop and how to turn left or right. Pretty simple! I had such an amazing experience. The trail ride is about an hour long and the horses were so well behaved that I felt really safe. It felt so relaxing riding around the ranch and enjoying the nice peace and quiet. It's nice to have a location close to Sacramento for horseback riding. I had a LivingSocial deal that got me a trail ride for $19.00/person. I believe their normal rate is around $38.00/person. If you enjoyed your ride, be sure to tip your guide! I totally didn't know and failed to bring any cash with me so I felt horrible for not tipping! :( But thank you so much for an amazing first time experience!
