Hi all! I’m looking for a good barn in the burbs with an experienced trainer for jumping lessons, but bonus points if they have horses available for lease in the future. I have a lot of riding experience, but little formal training (my grandparents own a barn in the Quad Cities, so I’ve been riding my whole life, but only took lessons here and there). I rode all the time growing up but took a break when I went off to college, and now I’m ready to get back in the saddle! I live in Wheaton and work in the city, so ideally closer to home is better, but I’m used to commuting. Here are a couple of places near me that I’ve reached out to so far:
Hawks Landing Stables - Hampshire, IL
Stanley Luke Farm - Countryside, IL
Thanks for the help!
