Crossroads Farm

I love my time at crossroads farm. I’ve been riding here for a little over three years, and purchased a horse almost two years ago. They have 4 excellent hunter/​jumper trainers to accommodate every level of rider from beginner to advanced. We participate in all levels of competition as well, from local schooling shows up to the weeks long out of state rated shows. There are 4 big grass turnouts for the horses to play and 4 arenas to ride in. The facility is kept very clean and in good repair. I rode at several other barns in the east valley before here, and this is by far the best I’ve found. The employees and trainers are all very horse-​wise and safety is always the priority. The kids and adults that train here are all very friendly and helpful, and everyone gets along. The barn is also home base for an IEA Team, as well as the ASU equestrian team. My family’s experience at crossroads is so great that I hope to have my 6yo start riding out there this summer too!

Calla has been lessening here for two years. They take rally good care of our horse Todd.

I thought Crossroads Farm lessons were good enough until I went to a different stable. The group lessons are not very effective and the tack is not in good shape. One lady actually fell off her horse because the stirrup strap broke.
Hopefully they have improved since I was there which was about a year ago.

Crossroads Farm is an excellent hunter-​jumper barn with a trainer owner (so emphasis is on riding and horses instead of profit)! A wide range of riders who have everything: ponies, quarter horses, thoroughbreds, and warmbloods.
The prices are excellent, too. I was surprised to find a barn within 30 minutes of the South Mountain area that is reasonable with excellent training and a fun, down-​to-​earth crowd.
