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 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!

Trainers of all types came and went over the years, some better than others, but this is not unique to GBEC. One thing that never changed was the dedication the barn owners had to the care and welfare of their boards. Tami worked nonstop from the morning to night, and she always contacted owners if she noticed a potential problem, etc. She was EVERYTHING to that facility and she always made herself available to boarders.

I volunteered at a horse rescue for a couple of years and became familiar with being around horses. However, I was never taught how to tack a horse or to ride. Jerry teaches Western with neck rein training. He told me that by the end of camp I would know how to tack / untack a horse and that I would be able to ride and control a horse. He was right!!! I learned everything he taught me and more! I am so grateful for my experience at JB Ranch. His horses are very well taken care of, very well. He and his team are responsible, informative, and provide appropriate training for all levels of riders. One of the main focuses is about being safe around the horses and when riding. The trail rides are extensive and enjoyable. If you want to really learn how to ride, this place is it. Jerry's place is, by FAR, the best ranch I have been to. I highly recommend it and hope that you look into it too. Check out Jerry's bio here: http://jbranch.com/whoisjerrybestpitch.html A remarkable man who I am honored to have been trained by.
