I arrived a few minutes early and was welcomed by Nora, and automatically felt at ease. Nora is a very kind, patient and a very skilled instructor. While making small talk and asking questions to get to know me she also watches to understand where you are at in your riding skill before you even mount your lesson horse. It was the first time I had been on a horse in about 30 years and even with my mind spinning from the joy and excitement I felt totally safe. Thank you Nora for keeping a wonderful place like Oak Valley Stables available and affordable.

Mrs. Nora is always so sweet. Literal angel and you can tell she cares by how gentle she is. The place is amazing and so are the horses. Would recommend.
