Our riding camps are popular

My son loves this place. The activities are fun and the coaches super-friendly. He has learned so much attending the summer camps here and is very comfortable handling horses. I can’t say enough good things about this stable - just that it is 5-star!

Unicorn Stables is a fantastic stable. I spent over a decade away from horses, but my first lesson with Unicorn felt like coming home. The instructors are kind and everyone is so welcoming!

It’s an absolute magical treat for my daughter, they’ve got a very nice facility. The horses are well kept the managing staff, and everybody keeps that place running absolutely ship shape tight.

My daughter just turned six, and just finished up a one-week horse camp. It was AWESOME! Great facilities, seems to be well-run, friendly place. On the final day, all the kids did a riding demonstration and parents were invited to watch - the look of pride and happiness on my daughter's face: priceless. Family memories for a lifetime, and a formative, empowering experience for her.

Visit to Unicorn Stable was an unforgettable experience. We learned the fundamentals of horse riding, including proper posture, balance, and the use of basic commands. We were amazed at how responsive and eager to please the horses were, and we felt a deep connection with the majestic creatures.
