The Four Winds is a family-run barn and once you are here, you will be part of the family! The Throckmortons know a ton about horses and go out of their way to provide great care. Over the weekend with our huge snow, they had it all cleared the next day. Jasmine checked on the horses and even gave my horse a pill since the roads were bad. They also have multiple arenas for riding. It is a very welcoming and inclusive facility, open to all types of horses and riding disciplines.My horse gets great care there. Thank you all!

Trust. What is the most important aspect of a horse training facility? Trust! Our 12 year old daughter has been riding at Four Winds for more than two years and I can’t emphasize enough how much I trust the Four Winds staff. This is a family run business that is made up of THREE generations of Throckmortons! The family name is synonymous with English riding, hunter, jumper, etc. They know horses, they know rider’s abilities, and they know how to build your trust from day one forward.We are honored to be part of the Four Winds family. It’s not just a group of riders, trainers, administrators, etc. This is truly a family and that is how you’re treated. We are incredibly protective of our daughter, but have no problem dropping her off for hours at Four Winds because we know that everyone there is a close knit group that watches out for one another. Safety is the first priority and it comes through each day. Following that, it’s ensuring that everyone has an incredible experience. Linnea has built the training business into a first class operation that will benefit you from the first day you mount.We recently bought a horse from the Throckmorton family and did so with complete confidence because of our Trust in them. They will never take advantage of you and their business is done with a handshake and a smile.You’d be a fool to go somewhere else for your training or boarding. I don’t know everything, but I know this business and this family. They really are heaven sent.

Fun place, love to show there.

Great people, horses are well taken care of and loved!

There arent enough businesses like The Four Winds in this world. To say that they are great is an understatement. They define excellence. They teach excellence. In character, in integrity and in form. The quality of training youll receive here is second to none. From the moment we stepped foot on the property 2 years ago, we were welcomed with open arms to this family run business. The 3 generations of Throckmortons all of whom are warm, friendly, compassionate, unbelievably humble and have developed a culture of gratitude within the barn itself. Everyone knows and cares for one another. Never is anyone excluded nor is there an expectation of a riders abilities to be a part of this team. All are welcome here. On any given day youll find more experienced riders helping out less experiences riders whether its tacking up their horse, explaining a course or giving them a pat out the back. When a new face comes to the barn, people ensure that they feel welcomed. Our kiddo could hardly lead a horse around when we first started and now shes competing and setting personal goals for herself. 2 years ago, we set out to find an environment for children to thrive in. We found it here.

Ive been a part of the Four Winds family for years and have now introduced my children to this wonderful facility. Excellent care for horses and clients alike. I cant recommend it enough!

Everyone at the Four Winds has been super helpful and it is a wonderful atmosphere. When my horse was being transported to the four winds he got there a day early and I was not yet in Fort Collins and they got him situated and in his stall for me. The trainers are so wonderful.

I thought that I picked a good place for my daughter to take riding lessons, but I was wrong. Only after 7 lessons, I was told by Nicole that she talked to Linnea and they decided that my daughter was not advancing fast enough for them and therefore we can no longer go there. That we were kicked out. Nicole flat out stated because my daughter did not advance in just four lessons that she can not go there anymore. To tell parent that their child is not good enough in just four lessons and because of their size is discriminatory, rude and disrespectful. Out of respect they should have told me that they only give lessons to those who are tall and will advance quickly from the very beginning. Horse riding lessons are meant to be fun and to learn how to ride as well as how to take care of them, not how fast you advance, especially in a private lesson. The nerve of four winds to tell us that we are kicked out because of her size and that she didnt advance in four lessons is something a parent and a child should never have to be exposed to. Four winds ought to be ashamed of themselves for running a business that way. I strongly recommend that you dont have your children take riding lessons at this place, so that way you and your children dont have to be exposed to a discriminatory, rude and disrespectful business (people). You dont want your children going home crying.

I have nothing but great things to say about The Four Winds. Everyone is incredibly welcoming. I’ve taken lessons with Linnea and Lily who are great trainers and give me quality tips to improve my ride which has been very hard for me to find at other barns I’ve ridden at. They are nothing but sweet and encouraging. Both trainers found my first horse and facilitated getting him back to the barn. I am now a paranoid horse mom and Jasmine the barn manager is always very available if I have any questions or concerns. Always quick to respond and very nice.I highly recommend this facility for all levels of riders, if you need training for your horse and as a boarding facility.

Such a fantastic place filled with amazing people. Im so thankful that I was able to board my horse at Four Winds and get to know everyone. Linnea of so full of knowledge and energy she knows so much and just by listening to her teach you learn a lot. So thankful for her and the whole Four Winds family!

I have been riding for 2 years now only at four winds i refuse to go any where else it is such a fantasic riding academy definately reccomend

As a boarder is it great barn that takes great care of their horses. Linnea and her assistants are invested in every student no matter what level they are at.
