Emerald Pine Stables - Burlington, Kentucky

Collette is absolutely an amazing trainer. She’s kind, understanding, and knowledgeable. I’ve had bad falls in the past with previous trainers that knocked my confidence completely down. This is the first time I’ve felt like I can get back to where I once was and more again. Not even a month in and I already have exceeded my personal goals for myself and am excited to see my progress as I continue. I used to overthink and dread lessons, as I was always an anxious mess and never felt like I was making any progress, but now I’m actually excited for lessons. Everyone there is nice and professional. Lesson horses are truly lesson horses that let you work on yourself during the lesson and not feel like you’re training them instead. You do pay a bit more cost wise here, but it’s worth every penny as you get so much more out of your lessons and the horses are at a much higher caliber training wise than most lesson horses at other barns. Even if you don’t want to show, Collette establishes a great foundation for riding and makes it fun! Barn is well kept, horses are happy and well cared for, and it’s easy to get to. I have 0 complaints.

**Review for Emerald Pine Stables in Northern Kentucky**

Our family's journey with Emerald Pine Stables has been truly remarkable over the past three years. Conveniently located near our home in Burlington, Kentucky, this haven has become a second home for my nine-year-old daughter, Jillian.

Colette, the trainer at Emerald Pine, is unparalleled in her expertise. Her ability to connect with Jillian and guide her with both patience and professionalism has been pivotal. Under Colette's watchful eye, Jillian has not only honed her skills but also earned numerous blue ribbons at various shows.

But Emerald Pine is more than just a training ground. It's a community. Jillian has forged numerous friendships here, making each visit as much about camaraderie as it is about riding.

For anyone looking for a harmonious blend of top-notch training and a warm, welcoming environment, Emerald Pine Stables is a clear choice. We wholeheartedly endorse it!

I took my first lesson today, after a long time out of the saddle following a bad fall elsewhere. My confidence was shot, and I was literally shaking as I drove up to the barn. All I could think about was the bad fall, and the judgement that I'd felt from others when I told them how nervous I was. But not here. Empathy abounds here, and as an adult re-learning how to do something she loved so much as a kid, empathy is necessary. Colette is patient, professional, and honest, and I trust her implicitly even after only one lesson. My love for horseback riding is back in full force, and my confidence is creeping back after too long without it. I've been on a cloud all day, confident and happy, and so eager to come back. And only after one lesson! I can only imagine where I'll be after more. Thank you, Colette!

I'm sure it's a great place to learn horsemanship. I worked there I never rode...the horses are beautiful and sweet.
However they do have one horse who has kicked a person. Truman is his name.
