Kneipp Farm: Horse Riding Lessons & Boarding

Krel Hartjen

My kids ride here and say it great!

John Morgan

Very nice facility! Well kept and horses look very well cared for. Top notch indoor and outdoor arena. Setup and jumps are very impressive.

I rode here for a little over a year but I was never that impressed. Overall, I found the head trainer/barn owner Maria to be really temperamental and unprofessional. She snapped at us when we talked to her and she was very impatient with me in lessons, sometimes swearing at me. Maria has a “tough” approach to teaching and training, which might be helpful for some, but it felt like it went way too far and I ended up leaving some lessons in tears. She seems knowledgeable but doesn’t know how to engage well in lessons at all, especially with anxious riders. As far as horse care goes, I can say that the horses appear to be well taken care of with clean stalls and daily turn-out. They also get regular farrier/vet visits. But given the poor dynamic I would have never kept a horse here.

I've been riding with Maria for over 20 years and my family has had a few different horses boarded at her farm. She provides great care and our horses really appreciate daily turnout. She has extensive knowledge in the Hunters/Jumpers/Equitation and I've trusted her over the years to help bring along my young horses and ones that need higher level training & tune-ups.
