My youngest child has been riding at Cameron for almost 3 years, my older daughter just started this spring. We also bought a pony from Marleta this year. She is the sweetest pony and has thrived at Cameron. Part of what I love about Cameron is that the kids learn what it takes to care for a horse. During a camp they learn how to clean their tack properly, how to muck a stall and care for the horses. My girls love being at the barn whether they are mucking stalls or riding. In my opinion if you’re going to ride & or have your own horse you should learn how to care for it, even muck their stalls every now and then. We have had only positive experiences with Marleta, Kersten and Jamie. They don’t baby the kids, they want them to learn and also be safe. They have never pushed my kids to do anything they aren’t comfortable with. I appreciate that there is no drama at the barn, it is a very family friendly environment. We have always tried to respect the trainers time (it is just as valuable as ours) and let them know if we won’t make it to a lesson, in turn they have always been very gracious in letting us do makeup lessons. We love being at Cameron Equestrian Center, my girls ask to go to the barn even on the days they don’t ride. I think they’d live there if we let them..
Pros: awesome trainers
