My daughter has been riding only a year and we have been truly impressed by the professionalism and quality of her teachers at Falcon Ridge. She had been on horses before taking lessons (semi-annual trail rides and a week 'camp' at a North Fulton Stable) but her skills really have improved greatly. At 12 years old she is so confident with the lesson horses and there were several horses from which to choose when we were contemplating leasing. The owners are on-site and are VERY hands-on. A great experience and a joy to be there! We love Falcon Ridge!
