Provided by YP.comA great place to board your horse, take riding/jumping lessons, lease a horse, have a birthday party or bring a group for a field trip. Everyone at the stable is considered part of the "family" and there is always something great going on. Horse shows on site as well as showing at local shows. Responsible & reasonable owners who live on site.

Provided by YP.comIt was our daughter’s seventh birthday. East Cobb Stables was not prepared when we arrived despite re-confirming two days prior (rain or shine). The children had nothing to do while the horse (singular) was saddled (approximately 30 minutes of the two hour party) and the children were not allowed to leave the pavilion.
The pavilion was filthy and unsanitary with bags of horse bedding stacked in the food serving area along with standing rain water on the serving counter, table and chairs. The tables and chair were dirty and there was no help cleaning. This was not a ‘hosted’ event.
The single horse and handler for ten children was not enough. The handler was unable to manage the horse while helping the child mount the horse and a parent had to be pulled away from corralling the other children in the pavilion to help. In desperation to give the children something to do gifts were opened while the riding continued which meant some children didn’t get to see their gift opened or provide the recipient the ability to offer thanks. Nobody was allowed to play with their toys because it would scare the horses.
Several times someone from with the home came out and yelled at the kids to get back in the pavilion. They weren’t supposed to pet or play around the horses in the barn. We were assured there would plenty of activities for the kids – this simply was not true. When discussing the options with what appeared to be the owner we were only offered the promise that many others have enjoyed the party. This did nothing to remedy the problem.
We had to remain until all the parents arrived to pick up their children and restlessness continued. This was a terrible experience from beginning to end.
