barn with a social conscience – My daughter and I rode at this beautiful farm for eight years. It is because of this farm that my daughter learned respect of animals, resonsibility, compassion and good riding skills. Over time, we got to know the owner very well- she was (and is) an excellent role model for my daughter and for many of the other children who ride at Manito. At Manito, their actions match up to their words. The animals are very well cared for, loved and respected. The owner's compassion and dedication is what ... read more

The best barn – I have been riding at Manito for eleven years and feel that Manito was very instrumental in developing way more than my riding abilities. What makes this barn different is the family atmosphere, their integrity, honesty and interest in their students. I started out as a volunteer and eventually joined their staff. This helped me form character, a work ethic and an understanding of the amount of care necessary to keep the horses happy, healthy and content. The owner always treated me well and she seems to have... read more

A no go – As a former instructor at this farm, I do not suggest the farm to anyone. In my short time there they was always a difficulty in keeping instructors. The owner was never on the farm and was usually difficult to reach. Although the horses were well maintained and were at a range of abilities, I found it difficult to allow students to reach their full potential. The owner seemed more concerned about making sure she got paid than allowing the students to grow and be acitve riders. I never felt comfortable around her a... read more

a place I call home – Manito Equestrian center is like my home. I have been riding there for at least 10 years and I have started to voulunteer about 2 years ago. I am very disappointed in the review from loveshorses08. Every single horse at Manito has had a wonderful life ever since Lisa brought them to manito. all are well cared for. These horses have been given a second chance, a chance not all horses receive. Eagle was loved by everyone and it was sad to see him go. And if you loved Eagle, than why make up such horrid li... read more

Decent place – Manito is a nice place that has good horses and a nice facility. The arenas there are nice and big but don't get raked often enough and the outdoor has way too many rocks and has hard footing 96% of the time. The horses are cared for, stalls are nice and the water is always clean, all of the horses seem really happy. Nice riding instructor and knows how to bring the kids along in their riding skills. My daughters riding has advanced greatly since she started riding there. The barn is also getting out there mor... read more

Beautiful, friendly experience for all ages – I've been riding at Manito for several years. Instructors are all courteous, knowledgable, professional and helpful. The grounds are gorgeous and immaculately maintained. Safety and ecology are number one priorities for owner. Horses are cared for lovingly and have a wonderful home. I have progressed considerably as a rider since beginning lessons at Manito and became captain of the equestrian team at my school. Experience with many different horses has broadened my equestrian sk... read more

Horsemanship – All 3 of our children have had the opportunity to ride, take lessons, attend birthday parties and hayrides at Manito over the years. The setting is tranquil. The instructors are friendly, knowledgeable, and responsible. The owner is caring and compassionate. This is an excellent riding facility for anyone interested in quality horsemanship.

Top notch! – Manito is peaceful, beautiful and wonderful. I give it a five star rating and would recommend it to any parent or adult rider. I heard of Manito when I lived out of state; their reputation in my circles is top-notch.My family ran their own horse operation for many years so I am aware of the challenges that farm owners face. This owner cares a lot about the horses, the children and the environment. I have been at Manito for years and these facts are consistently obvious to my family and to me.Additionally, my chi... read more

Horrid place – This barn is super expensive and for the price you would think they would put out some nice riders but they don't. Most of the riders at this barn have horrible equitation and can't ride worth a darn. The barn owner is never on property and she is just in it for the money. Instead of putting money towards the horses, she is driving around in a Lexus. One horse there is terribly sick and he isn't on any medication like he should be. He was in a lesson where he couldn't breath anymore and he went down with a beg... read more
