Lincoln Equestrian Center

In a world full of Chaps, 10 Gallon hats, and people who look at you like you are a fruit loop for putting that "sissy" saddle on your horse, this place is an Oasis!! Yes, it truly is an ENGLISH riding/show stable, where I have yet to meet one person who has a western saddle of any type, not that there is anything wrong with western, only the western people who criticize those of us who follow a different beat.. There are 3 trainers who's specialties include equitation, dressage, hunters, jumpers...etc. The barn is kept IMPECCABLY clean, even the kids there clean up after themselves and their ponies. There is a beautiful indoor arena, complete with mirrors in some places so you can check your "seat." A hunt course outdoors that has the size worthy of being called a hunt course, and also a nice dressage arena located just beside the hunt course. They also host clinics with some really great clinicians and occasionally host shows.The wash stall has hot and cold running water, and is located IN the barn away from the dirt so your newly washed horse stays CLEAN. The barn owner is also a horse person and she really cares about each and every person and animal who boards there. Everybody I have met there has been friendly and helpful. The kids are very well mannered, in fact they are the best group of kids I have encountered at any stable ever.This is definitely what I am used to, being from the Cappo area of Orange County. The only thing missing that i think is essential, especially in a cold weather state, is a hot walker....but that's it, and really...hot walkers are for the lazy, right??
