Crestone Farm offers beginner through advanced Western and English horseback riding lessons in a relaxed environment, as well as Hunter/Jumper, Dressage, Equitation and Western Pleasure. The focus of our program is on horse care and safety in addition to horseback riding. We do not allow you to be "just a passenger on a horse". We teach riding and horsemanship skills. Grooming and tacking are included in your lesson. Children and adults of all ages are welcome. Riding lessons are held daily and year round by appointment.

What you need to take lessons
HELMETS: It is required that all riding students wear certified helmets!
We can provide helmets for new riders but strongly suggest that you purchase your own if you are serious about riding. A Troxel riding helmet similar to the one above can typically be purchased at PetsMart or Murdochs. All riders are required to sign a release form before riding.
ARRIVAL: Please plan to arrive 10 minutes prior to each lesson in order to prepare yourself and the horse ready to start promptly at your scheduled lesson time. This will ensure that you will maximize your lesson time.
FOOT WEAR: Paddock or riding boots are strongly recommended. At a minimum, a boot with a heel is required. The reasoning behind this is that with a heeled-shoe, you will not easily get your foot caught in the stirrup. Tennis shoes are not permitted for safety reasons.
JEANS: Breeches, riding pants, half chaps or chaps are recommended. If you do not own chaps or riding pants, then jeans are suggested.
GIFT CERTIFICATES: If you know someone who may be interested in trying out riding, pre-paid gift certificates are available for 1 hour-long or package riding lessons.
WE GO YEAR-ROUND: We teach all year as long as the weather and footing permits. I do reschedule when possible for weather related cancellations.
INCLEMENT WEATHER: Typically, WE RIDE RAIN OR SHINE (unless there are heavy storms, lightning or it is below 30 degrees). Your instructor will notify you accordingly.
CANCELLATION POLICY: Any rescheduled lesson must be made up within 7 days or the lesson credit expires. In order to reschedule, the instructor must be contacted at least 24 hours in advance of lesson time. There is a $20 rescheduling fee within 4 hours of the lesson time. Full price will be charged for any lesson not cancelled within 4 hours of its scheduled time, including cancellations, re-schedules, no call, and no shows. There are no refunds for unused or partially used prepaid lesson packages.
