“When we go out to Hidden Hollow, my wife and I instantly feel the peace. It’s a place where all life is cherished. The horses grazing, the cats rolling in the grass, and the goats are all one lovely break from all our cares. It’s a special place for veterans like me and our families. My wife loves the free riding lessons. Hidden Hollow is a true treasure.”

"My two grown sons learned to ride at this farm and now my daughter is learning. Not only does this farm teach you how to ride but Steph treats every kid like they are her own. She makes them feel special. My daughter loves going there and I wouldn't take her anywhere else. You can't find any other farm that has a special person like Steph to teach kids more then just how to ride."

"Best barn I've ever had the chance to be a part of and ride at. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Thanks to Hidden Hollow, Stef and Deb I'm able to ride for the first time again since last year. If it had been another barn I would never have been able to get back on a horse this soon after surgery. Stef is the best trainer I have ever had. We worked at my pace and she kept checking to make sure I was okay. Thank you to everyone at Hidden Hollow for helping me get my life back!!"

"I've known the folks here for 20+ years back when I first started riding with Stephanie in the early 90s. The entire staff has never been anything but accommodating, compassionate and professional. The facility is always cared for, animals are always taken care of in every aspect and everyone is made to feel welcome." 

"They're all good-natured and encourage learning and growth regardless of what level rider you are. I'll always be grateful for all I've learned and been allowed to participate in. Everyone gets a chance here no matter how much money or experience, no matter their abilities and it's a great feeling."

Our Dream

We're working hard toward realizing our longtime dream of an indoor riding arena. This new facility will help us do more work for more people. 

On rainy days and during the cold Hudson Valley winter months, we'll be able to keep our riders and horses working together!

Won't you help us make this dream a reality?
