WHOSE BARN IS IT ANYWAY? As a beginner, this was a shame. I…read morewould have (prior to this experience) recommended anyone to SRRC, and often did. Now, I wouldn't recommend this barn to anyone because I had a contractual dispute regarding a lease with Teicia Walker and Marc W. This led to being unceremoniously blocked and then banned from the barn based upon lies and carefully worded threats framed to the barn owner, Gina. (I was paying $550, while another lessor paid $275, others less so- all the while I had to purchase move-x injections, food, made signs for dietary restrictions, always brought fresh nutritious snacks, pampered the horse every time I was there, stayed long hours to prepare him for shows where I wouldn't be showing him, and obtained my own tack trunk, investing in the horse I loved so much). I wanted to resume lessons with another trainer after a time, and Gina allowed me to book. I received a call back from Gina shortly thereafter with an elevated and disrespectful tone stating she doesn't do drama-- I didn't call with drama, I called to book a lesson. Essentially, I was told that if I were to return to the barn for lessons, Teicia would remove her horses from there, which would then lead to a loss of revenue. I was taken off the schedule (sounds a lot like extortion). Is it Teicia's barn or is it Gina's? The inability to discern why, when I had done nothing wrong and only tried to right the course to train with another trainer after a cooling off period, and on the original horse I had trained on previously, I was still told no unless things were worked out with Teicia. There was no working anything out with Teicia as she had been busy defaming my character and making up ridiculous lies to justify removing me from the barn. I wanted to go on days she wasn't there and just leave afterwards, even this was not considered. This is NOT the barn I thought it was, it is only suitable if you enjoy drama, enjoy being defamed, and having your character assassinated because you would not remain silent while being ripped off. Quite a grift, buyer BEWARE.

I'm so happy to have found this barn. Everyone is incredibly welcoming and they have so much to…read moreoffer.

I barn-hopped all over North Jersey for almost 12 years before I met Sarah. She was teaching…read morelessons at another barn in the area and as soon as I spoke to her, I knew I would never look back. Sarah has an unparalleled talent for coaching riders of any age/skill, as well as a natural gift for training horses. She has a wonderful way of tapping potential in her riders and horses, and bringing out the best in them. I couldn't find anyone better to learn from! I happily drive 40 minutes to get to the barn because there is absolutely no one who compares to Sarah. I would never dream of boarding my horse anywhere else :) The barn truly acts as a family, perfectly balancing fun, relaxation, and competition. From children to adults, everyone is supportive, friendly, and kind. If you want a great place to learn, with a great trainer and awesome community, check it out!

Hayride: -Tractor drawn carriage with no sides. -Sit crisscross applesauce facing inward to avoid being hit in the face by branches. Western BBQ: -Served hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, soda and water, and s'mores. I was expecting more in the line of meat but it's worth the experience for the price. DJ/Music: -The DJ played a variety of country tunes in the beginning. Once everyone was fed, the music shifted to line dance tunes.
