Lessons are given and group trail rides and events are often planned! Whether you're the weekend warrior or dabble in the show world, all are welcomed. Lauren is also excellent with rehabbing and lay-off horses. I highly recommend SRF if you're looking for laid back yet knowledgeable people.

This is a review of the rodeo at Pond Hill Ranch, held on Saturday nights each week for ten weeks…read morein the summer. It was an enjoyable rodeo with a variety of events, skilled competitors, an announcer who continually explained what was going on, and a friendly crowd of all ages including well-behaved children. On the night we went, the events included bull riding, calf roping, barrel racing, and a ranching event that I'd never seen elsewhere. In the ranching event, a trailer was driven onto the field, a team of three cowboys on horseback had to single out a tagged cow from the herd and lasso it, the cowboys had to convince the lassoed cow to get into the trailer, then they had to persuade one of their horses to do the same, and after securing the trailer's rear gate they had to pile into the truck and honk the horn to stop the timer. As the announcer explained, this event was designed to replicate real elements of a working ranch, and the competitors were professional cowboys doing ranch work at Pond Hill full-time. The bleachers filled up with about 1000 spectators, so we were glad we arrived early because there was no assigned seating, but even people who arrived after the start of the event found places to sit. There were concession stands with typical fairground food, but we didn't try any because we brought a picnic dinner. There were no picnic tables, so we ate in the grassy parking area before the event, but most people ate in the bleachers. There were several port-a-johns, though for a crowd this size ideally there should have been twice as many, and there was also a shop selling horse tack, cowboy apparel, and similar items. The seating was in open-air bleachers with no protection from rain or sun, so fortunately the weather was ideal when we went. The parking in the grassy fields went smoothly, guided by two cowboys on horseback directing each car where to park, and the departing traffic after the rodeo flowed pretty smoothly as well, helped by the fact that the spectators were a courteous crowd. This was a wholesome, family-friendly event and a wonderful reminder that America's ranching and cowboy heritage is found nationwide, not just out West.

I worked at Quiet run for about 6 months, what a nightmare. They are awful to their employees, they…read moretear them like dirt. They also screw them over with paying them for work and then didn't pay me for 2 weeks of work. I quit, no one should be treated like that. They are not good to their horses, each one only gets about 30 minutes of turn out time. Other than. That they are left sitting i their stalls until they are used. When a horse is no longer up to their standards, they will have them out down. I witnessed this first hand. So sad that these people do this. Mo and Mel should be ashamed of themselves. My son was asked to work there with me, they refused to pay him and offered lessons. This was not what he was told when he started working there. Needless to say he and I are out a few paychecks.

The owners literally referred to the staff as, "the help" and showed virtually no appreciation for the work they did. When my friend was injured on the job, due to their mismanagement of the grounds and the treatment of their horses, they proceeded to bad mouth her to the staff and lie about what happened. They then refused to meet with her about the injury she sustained - literally opting to set up a meeting time with her and then ditch and leave early to avoid addressing her issues. They treat the horses like objects, not living creatures who are dependent on them for care and safety, and they treat their staff even worse.
