Rancho Rio Equestrian Center

I have had my horses boarded at RREC for over a decade. It pains me to write this review, but our community needs to be made aware of the poor quality of their service.First, the positives- one of the owners(owner B) is there everyday caring for her own horses, so getting ahold of her is quite easy. Also, there is easy access to the river trails.Now for the unfortunate parts:1. The entire facility is in such disrepair that over the span of 6 months, my horse had no water for nearly 2 days because the automatic water bowl was completely broken and nobody noticed. I personally witnessed 3, fully grown trees FALL OVER! Two of which landed on pens and hitching rails. Further, the stalls dividers often break or fall down! Not to mention, there are shar wires and paneling impinging upon the feed areas. 2. They nickel dime you into the poor house. They require first and last month payment upon signing your contract. If you want a tack room, it's an extra $10/month. If there is an extra shade structure (all of which were built decades ago by horse owner and cost the facility absolutely nothing), it's another $15/month! 3. Serious safety concerns! The fencing which makes up the stalls often breaks, falls completely down, or the rods come in welded and stick into the stall. Sharp wire jut into many stalls as well. One of the riding instructors gives lessons to upwards of 10 BEGINNER students at the same time, most without helmets, and has kids interacting with horses completely unsupervised.4. Obvious discrimination. There are several boarders to whom the facility rules flat out don't apply, but everyone besides these people are held to them.5. The most frustrating thing is the unbelievable lack of concern for boarders. Any time there is a legitimate request made (moving stalls until repairs are made, safety concerns, repairs), they are met with the line, "We would fix that, but the owner won't allow it." I asked numerous times to get in contact with owner A(the person who is rarely seen), but was met with pushback each time. The lack of accountability from the owners and never ending safety hazards/disrepair have forced out numerous people, including myself. I recommend finding somewhere else to board horses.
