Honestly, there's so many wonderful places like this that take in animals, especially horses that are going to the kill shelter or that have been abused. The same way how they help people connect to the horses. Horses are so healing and wonderful. It's hard to phantom how anyone could abuse any animals. As I walked around, I was able to enjoy the property and to learn more about the program. I really can't wait to go back, I think I missed a few animals. I want to ride a horse and to see more, but to really talk to the owners. They, are extremely passionate. This area is beautiful and I can't wait to discover it on horseback. Thanks again for such a fun night, Great chuck wagon food, and music.. I WOULD RECOMMEND

The staff is very friendly and accommodated a last minute schedule change with incredible courtesy. My reason for 4 stars is we booked a 1.5 hour tour and our tour was about 1 hour and 10 or 15 minutes, so a little short. The area for the ride was easy to find with Apple maps and the surroundings were gorgeous.

From the stalls being cleaned three times per day, to feedings three times per day. On top of that, they feed supplements, blanket and place fly masks at no added fees. Truly, the care is unbeatable and the facility is pristine. They do constant barn checks and workers are amazing and live on the property. They also run a dog boarding service, which I utilize. It doesn't get any better than Liz and Joanne! I would never take my horses anywhere else...we compare their facility to the Ritz Carlton for horses!

The owners of El Rancho Rojo are Joanne and Liz and they will tell you anything you want to hear in…read moreorder to get you to board there. I had numerous issues which I brought to their attention and every time Joanne would start yelling and screaming and throwing a conniption fit. When I first arrived my horse had very calm horses on either side of him. Shortly thereafter Joanne allowed a high strung horse to be stabled next to my horse which created issues. I asked Joanne if she would move the high strung horse and she did not. There very small riding arena has 4 to 5 inches of sand which is not suitable to ride in as it will cause suspensory issues to your horse. A sand based riding arena should be 1 to 2 inches. One of Joanne's horses chewed and destroyed my very expensive halter I kindly asked her to replace it she said she would but after 4 weeks it still hasn't been replaced. They lock up the feed room and do not allow you access to your own supplements and grain which is unheard of in a barn. Joanne did not disclose that her neighbor to the east hates her so much that he fires up the lawnmower or something very loud daily to disrupt the horses and your experience while at the barn. Joannes cursing is offensive and she's constantly ranting and raving. Joanne and Liz created a very stressful environment for my horse and myself and therefore I would never recommend this place to anybody under any condition or situation.

I can't say enough good things about MM Show Jumping and the incredible community here! This is…read morehands down the best barn community I've ever been a part of--everyone is so supportive and fun, and we do activities both at the barn and outside, which makes it feel like a real family. Monica's training has helped me learn and improve rapidly and has built my confidence so much as a rider. She cares deeply about both her clients and the horses, ensuring they receive the best care every single day. The facility is also absolutely beautiful, and Ricardo, Lupe to Jerry make the experience even better. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found this barn. If you want fantastic care for your horse, amazing lessons, and to be part of the best community, this is the place to be! :)

The community here is genuinely kind and welcoming, making it feel like a second home. For me, one of the biggest highlights is how well the horses are cared for. The team is incredibly dedicated, ensuring the horses are always in great condition. The barn is spotless, well-organized, and runs smoothly. It's rare to find a place that combines excellent coaching, a warm community, and top-notch care for both riders and horses. I couldn't be happier with the experience my wife and I are having here.

They only have two riding horses for like 30 kids so while two kids ride, 28 kids stand out in the sun waiting for hours for their turn. And they only let a kid ride once.

My fiance & I got Groupons for 3 horse riding lessons at Twisted Tree Farm. The stables themselves…read moreare very pretty and set into a calm area of North Scottsdale with views of Pinnacle Peak. It'd be a really cute place to take engagement or family pictures, if they let you. Twisted Tree Farm caters to real riders, like the kind that do jumps and that sort of competition. We didn't quite realize that when we got the groupons...my fiance trying to post and such was a funny site. We just wanted to learn how to ride horses and get to run with them cause trail guides on the hour rides in the desert never let you. Our instructor Victoria was really nice, knowledgeable, and patient. She let me go slowly (those horses are giant) and made sure I felt comfortable with everything. Twisted Tree Farms seems like a great place to go if you want to learn english-style, jump-style horse riding. If you are just looking for regular horse riding lessons like we were, someplace else would probably be better.

She promised to keep the price low and include all training if I helped her break horses to ride & give lessons (which I did love BTW, but it was A LOT of unpaid work, especially because I also had a fulltime job elsewhere an hour away). Linda never trained the horse at all and would not allow one of the more advanced riders at her stable to help me get the initial training in. No joke, she isn't an US citizen (at the time) and needed the $4000 to get a lawyer because of it. I was scammed for the money!! I had to sell this sweet horse for half that amount because I physically couldn't provide the training he deserved. Proceed with caution before purchasing any of her sale horses and never skip the vet check.

I cannot emphasize enough that a…read moreretired horse who provides a safe mount for any trainer's business is to be honored and cared for life. Tiffany let Rhen's teeth go untreated and his weight get so low that when we picked him up we were horrified. His eyes were infected and he looked as if the last brushing or bath was months ago...Tiffany benefitted from Rhen for years until he was not able to jump - she used this loyal servant up and actually was going to give him away on Craigslist. I have never been so ashamed of a human let alone a horse trainer. Tiffany is a despicable example of horses for profit which is exactly what this world could do without. I encourage any horse lover to steer clear from Desert Equi-Sports out of love of horses. How would you feel if you were tossed out and unloved suddenly?????????
