I would just like to say the LionHeart Ranch has been a wonderful addition to our weekly schedule…read morefor my daughter. Bethany ( her trainer) has been so patient and inspiring for my daughter to work with. The ranch itself is such a wonderful peaceful place that i know when it comes time for my daughter to own a horse we will be boarding it at LionHeart. The staff is amazingly friendly and all the horses on site seem well taken care of and happy. Thank you LionHeart for being the perfect escape for both of us.

First, let me say that Lauren is a great barn manager, cheerful and helpful. She even became my…read moredressage instructor when my regular trainer left. The place is kept very clean and the guys that work there are very kind. My complaint with the place is the fact that many of the horses are ill-tempered - making walking down the aisle in the paddocks extremely dangerous. The cobblestones are very hazardous when wet and the prices are a bit on the extreme side for your average horse-crazy aficionado. The plus is that they have a large covered arena and round pen. The turn out areas are well groomed and their parking lot is capacious. My hope would be to encourage the management to insist on ground work with the aggressive boarders. Also, the one clinic I attended that Lionheart sponsored was a total waste of time and money given the fact that I was only leasing the horse at the time. Lastly, my hubby and I attended their Halloween celebration and weren't told in advance about the price for lunch/parking. One of the barn dogs got into a fight with one of the guests that brought their pugilistic canine and I had to separate them before it got ugly - because no one else was intervening! So...there it is...the good, bad and ugly of my experience at Lionheart.

She charged us $100 more than the $500 agreed price due to HER mistake. She is a mean lady that knows she has leverage because she is dealing with your pet. I paid what she asked but vowed I will never use that woman again and will warn my friends.

They have a very large, grassy pasture area and the stalls are quite large. I've been following Saint Ignacio, a handsome and well-mannered gelding who retired from racing in June.

My eye for length of stride became accurate and my horses felt comfortable with my confident attitude. I couldn't have been happier with my progress. Randy and Ben never made a lesson easy on me; from half set with no stirrups to their priceless schooling horses that taught me more than I would like to admit.
