Wonderful place 7/6/2011

I was looking to get back into Saddleseat riding after four or so years of trying different disciplines. After some searching online, I found Palos Hills Riding Stables, asked some of my contacts from my previous Saddleseat barn about this stable's reputation, and after positive response from them, I set up a lesson. more

Why Palos is the ONLY barn for Us! 11/19/2010

I came from another barn that did take great care of my horse BUT, it is the little things that make the difference that Martha offers that make me SO happy at Palos. My horse Emma has never been so happy and calm (for a mare) as she is here. My husband and I have met great people who are now our friends, and have never felt more at home. With Martha, if you want to show, you show, if you just want to trail ride, thats what you do. But a goal or two sure doesn't hurt!!! Thanks Martha, Emily, Patty, Annie, and Fernando for all you do. more

Learn to ride here! 1/17/2010

This stable has over 50 years of experience in instructing Chicago-area horselovers. Located directly across the street from miles of forest preserve trails, it has an indoor riding area with a comfortable viewing lounge and a large outdoor ring. The riding program includes all disciplines as well as a top-notch show team. Four 'school shows' are held during the year to give riders an opportunity to demonstrate the skills they have learned. Summer and holiday camps are available and well-filled. All in all, a perfect place for someone who has always wanted to learn to ride or for the person who already has! Pros: Very experienced instructors, wonderful horses, convenient Cons: None I can think of more

do not go here 12/28/2009

I went here for a while and it was horrible. the horses were very high strung for beginner riders, the instructors would yell at 10 yearr olds and younger for crying. the stupid instructors would leave me with a horse that would try to kick me while they read a magazine and used there phone and also talked with with there friends when she was suppose to be teachin me how to ride and there has been about 15 accidents in 6 months and two involvin broken bones and that is just th beginer class. they would also fill a 20 foot by 45 foot arena with 12 riders on horseback with horses that wuld kick and bolt away from eachothr Pros: none there is nothing good about this stable Cons: terrible place for beginners more

No barn snobs here! 9/23/2008

I've been to other barns in the area and having many years of professional animal care experience under my belt I can say that this is one of the best barns I've been to. Sure it's small but all of the horses are very well cared for. Beginner classes are just like beginner classes every where else but if you really want to learn talk to your instructors and they'll make sure you get on the right track. With school shows and outside shows there is something here for everyone. It's also important to note that this barn specializes in saddle seat riding but offers hunt seat as well. Pros: well cared for animals, good instructors, horses for all abilities, many opportunities! Cons: small indoor arena, beginner classes can be very crowded. more
