As someone who has been riding for more than 20 years and has been around horses my entire life, I…read moredon't write reviews for barns lightly. I've also worked in veterinary clinics that treat horses and large farm animals, so I'm very familiar with what proper horse care, safety, and professional management should look like. Denver Equestrian Riding School truly stands out. The horses here are absolutely wonderful--well cared for, happy, and clearly loved by everyone on the staff. It's obvious the team puts the horses' health and wellbeing first. They are attentive to the horses every day, and having a highly respected veterinary group located less than two miles away provides another layer of confidence that the horses receive excellent care. The facility itself is fantastic--well run, organized, and welcoming. Whether I'm in a private lesson or a group lesson, the instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely fun to ride with. They create a learning environment that is both safe and encouraging, which is something every rider should look for. What really makes this barn special is the atmosphere. Everyone--from the staff to the riders--shares a true love for the horses. It feels less like a facility and more like a community. There's a real sense of family here, where people support each other and enjoy being around these incredible animals. If you're looking for a place that truly cares about the horses, the riders, and the overall experience, Denver Equestrian Riding School is exceptional. I'm grateful to ride here and always look forward to my next lesson.

Attended Horses and Happy Hour on July 19, 2024. It was not a pleasant experience, and I didn't…read morefeel I received value for my money at all. I mentioned many times that my "horse" (the owner corrected me and said it was actually a Pony) was tired and did not want to do anything but walk in a straight line back and forth inside the arena. The pony refused to pick it up to a trot or even a cantor. I do know how to ride a horse, and the owner of the facility was rude and kept chiding me and asking me if I was afraid and questioning my ability to ride a horse or pony. I repeated myself to my assistant and to the owner, who both brushed aside my comments that the horse was tired and did not want to or could not perform. I don't think they should have used this particular animal in the first place, since I overheard them saying she had been in a show earlier in the day, and her eyes even looked exhausted/sleepy. Her name (the horse) is Mystery. I think they should have picked out another horse for me when I voiced my displeasure and it was apparent that this horse did not want to follow my instructions, or anyone else's. I did not want to have to resort to being mean or cruel to the animal to "force" it to do anything. I had to brush my own horse before and after this farce of an experience. Very highly Not Recommended. Also, our entire time inside the arena actually on the horses was about 30 minutes. Thirty minutes on a horse, even if that horse or pony was in good shape, is still not a good value for 145 dollars. The happy hour was awkward and comprised of the owners standing in the middle of the room; the conversation was about them, and a bit more about them.

I came to this barn confidently jumping 1-meter classes, and I left scared to even canter. My…read moreexperience here completely shattered the confidence I once had, and I truly wish I had left sooner. I took lessons for about a year and a half, and while things were great at first--even leasing a horse so I could start jumping again--everything quickly went downhill. The horse I leased was kept in a pasture with aggressive horses that wouldn't let him eat. He became extremely skinny and exhausted. I repeatedly told the owners he needed to be moved, but they ignored me until he was literally skin and bones. Later, he developed a lump right where the girth goes. Again, I told them, and again they ignored me--until it got so bad he needed surgery. If they had bothered to listen at any point, it could have been handled easily. I watched multiple horses come in healthy and happy and leave with behavioral and physical issues. It was heartbreaking. Another major issue, and the reason I ultimately stopped riding here, was the constant problems with billing. The moment I started asking basic questions about what I was being charged for, the owners turned rude and nasty. They even accused me of not paying--until I had to show them the actual receipt because they can't even keep track of their own finances. They constantly told me I owed random amounts of money they couldn't explain and then magically changed the totals later like nothing had happened. They constantly hounded me nonstop about paying on time, yet every time I went in to pay, no one was there. I called, showed up almost daily, and still couldn't find anyone, but they continued to harass me about being "late." Their invoices were so confusing that it was impossible to understand what I was being charged for. And the amount for one lesson a week somehow changed every single month. When I finally decided I was done, my statement said I owed $65. But when I went in, suddenly I owed much more. When I asked for an explanation, the owners immediately came out and started being rude and attacking me, even though they couldn't explain their own system. One of many incidents I will never forget involved a new student in one of our lessons--a girl who was clearly on the spectrum and trying her best. Instead of being supportive, Tara, one of the owners, barged into the arena and interrupted our lesson even though she could have used any other arena. And began openly making fun of her and mocking her in front of everyone. It was cruel, disgusting, and completely unprofessional. That girl never came back, and I don't blame her. I wouldn't be surprised if that experience pushed her away from riding entirely. This place is disgusting and horrible to the horses and to the people. I cannot recommend this place to anyone. And I hope to find a new barn where I am treated with respect and where my skills--and the horses--are truly cared for.

I rode at a place in parker for over a year and never felt 1/10th of the love and hospitality I have has here. Not to mention I got more out of my 1st month here than I did in the entire year at the other barn. The instructors here understand the balance of giving the rider what we need and what we want and let you learn in a way that works best for you. I ALWAYS am greeted with a huge smile and open arms by everyone who comes here (trainers as well as other riders) it has become another family to me. Their young riders volunteer with the horses and put in the work on the backend as well. Longview also takes in the old, abandoned and neglected horses others have over looked or turned into the glue factory so don't think they neglect their horses its the exact opposite they are giving those that other have a 2nd chance!!
