I love riding at Knoll. They have wonderful teachers and lesson horses for all ages and levels. Knoll has three huge outdoor rings with great footing and jumps. Plus an indoor! I happen to lease but boarding is also an option. They take great care of their horses and property. Clean, organized and well maintained. Plus right across the street from the Brentwood train station! We have a great community feel with barn parties and events. I highly recommend Knoll Farm! read more

I had such a great experience for my first horseback riding lesson here at Knoll Farm! I booked over the phone with Holly who was my trainer and she was super helpful and courteous during the process. The farm itself is located in a very easy to find location right across from the LIRR train station in Brentwood. My 1/2 hour lesson with Holly was awesome! She made me feel comfortable and safe the entire time. She allowed me time to bond with the horse before mounting and I got to feed him at the end! The other staff member I interacted with in the office was also really great and seemed friendly. It was a great lesson, I would love to come back and ride again. read more

Knoll Farms has been my horsey happy place for about ten years. Great horses and trainers. Lots of space and rings to ride in with indoor and outdoor rings so you can ride all year round. Located across from Brentwood train station makes it convenient to travel from the city. read more

I'm a boarder at Knoll Farm and couldn't recommend this place more! The owners are extremely kind, helpful, and sincerely care about you and your horse :) Also, the barn manager is the sweetest and is always available! Knoll even organizes little events, like a costume contest for Halloween, and it's so fun! And for accessibility, it's great that the stables are right across from the LIRR stop Brentwood, so you can't beat it. Overall, it's a really warm community here, even with the other boarders and students! If you're looking for a place to board your horse, I super recommend Knoll Farm - I'm super happy to be here! read more

Farm is poorly managed. Owners are MIA. Tack is falling apart. Owners do not provide a safe environment for horse and rider.

Amazing facility! Bar none, best one near the NYC metro area. So good that I take the train and/or battle traffic. While they focus mostly on dressage, they do have a great hunter/jumper instructor, Laura Hagen, who is incredible. Knoll has great facilities- a large indoor, and 4 outdoor rings. read more

This equestrian facility is about half way out the Long Island Railroad, an easy stroll from the train station on foot which is imperative for us Non-Auto New Yorkers. The facilities are older, a dark brooding office with air like molasses almost makes you want to pull out your bag of Reveal 100 Watts, until you see the lovely horses come dancing past the windows. With extensive outdoor arenas and a huge lighted indoor, multiple barns with Anne Gribbon's super-fancy dressage mounts mixed with a big selection of school-horses to take lessons on, this place is above par. The complex of little buildings feels like a beach compound on the outside, with lovely flowers and some big grain silos that I was told are no longer in use. It is a fun place to explore and the people were laid back enough to let us browse a bit once they saw that we weren't going to let ourselves get kicked or bitten. The instructor I was paired with was fantastic- young, friendly, knowledgeable and great with analogies. It's a little pricey if you consider that it costs $14 to get there and back to the city, and there is an annual charge of $20 for insurance (only in New York!), on top of the $50 hourly rate. I think it's cheaper for group lessons so I may try that next time. But I will definitely be back! read more

Love this place. I came here as a beginning dressage student and my riding improved by leaps and bounds under their instruction. When I moved back to California I was sad that I couldn't stuff Doreen in my suitcase and have her come with me and help me train my current horse. Definately miss the atmosphere and top notch instruction. read more

Knoll Farm is perfect for urbanites without cars (like me!) who want to become better riders! The farm is across the street from the Brentwood train station, so no taxi is necessary to get there. So far I have only used the indoor arena, which is just huge and really the perfect facility if you want to ride at night and in the winter. (There are also a number of outdoor rings as well). My instructor is Laura Hagan and I want to strongly recommend her. Her focus is hunter/jumper, and I find she is extremely observant and tactful in working with me. I am making progress quickly with her approach. I am a beginning rider but I know she works with many experienced riders as well. I have only ridden one horse so far but he has been terrific, very responsive for a schooling horse and quite calm and patient in the ring. Highly recommended! read more

excellence facility. I showed at Knoll back in the 80's when Anne own the place. The new owners are fabulous. They have great school horses and my trainer from my old barn is now at Knoll. The train station is directly across the road so it;s handy for the Manhattan crowd to come out for lessons. There is no drama at this barn everyone is welcomed with hellos and smiles. They encourage you to come and play with the horses whenever you want. Prices are reasonable also.. read more

Words cannot describe this amazing wonderful farm. I love love love this place. My daughter takes riding lessons there for equestrian. She has improved so much in less then a year. Where as other places she did not show this much improvement and advancement for competitions The trainers are the best!!! The staff and other riders are friendly and polite. The atmosphere is serene and quiet its a happy place and I highly reccomend it for everyone young old beginer to advanced!!! read more

Although the facility is a bit on the older side I really enjoyed the experience. Its pretty amazing to be able to choose from so many amazing instructors with so much talent. I just wish they had more talented dressage school horses. But the arenas are great and its nice to just sit and watch all the amazing upper level riders take lessons. I dont' think the prices are unreasonable considering where I now board in California its $85 for a private 1/2 hour lesson...and that's not even from F.E.I level trainers. read more

Outstanding facilities include 5 barns, multiple outdoor rings (even a grass ring, 2 jump rings and 1 dressage ring), an impressive indoor arena with mirrors, plenty of grass turnouts, VERY competent staff and instructors, in addition to HAPPY horses! The staff embraces everyone and is happy to help you in any way. They take a personal interest in helping you achieve your goals. They give the horses EXCELLENT care!

They are diligent about even turning out their school horses to pasteur. This is a 5 star facility hands-down! If your looking to have your child compete, their equestrian team offers many events. Check out their website calendar and that will give you an idea. They can meet your needs as a student, boarder, or just someone who is looking to lease or purchase a horse.
