I am so happy to be part of Mangold Ranch Versatility community!

I decided to lease a horse from Mangold Ranch to become a better rider, and to prepare me for ultimately purchasing my own horse. In the months I have been here, I have learned so much from Megan who has become my mentor, trainer and friend. The fundamentals of Natural Horsemanship, basic riding skills, trail riding skills, and safety around horses are all areas I in which I have personally grown, thanks to her. I have witnessed anxious, skittish horses arrive for training, and after spending some time with Megan the horses leave calm and relaxed. I have watched Megan work with children during lessons and during summer camp, and I would recommend her without reservation to work with even the youngest child. Megan is also great about helping people find the right horse if they are looking to buy, and I can account for that first-hand. Freddie, the horse I was leasing, turned out to be the perfect horse for me, and I ended up buying him. Freddie was born and raised at the ranch, and is the best trail horse and companion I could have ever hoped for. I will be forever grateful to Megan for matching me with my right horse. In addition to all of this, I have to mention Thursday nights and how they are the highlight of my week. It’s “Ladies’ Night”, and several of us meet every week with Megan for a fun night of riding together and laughing together while we spend time with our horses and work on our horsemanship skills. I love the community of people I have met at the ranch, including not only Megan and the Mangold family but also all the other riders.

I recommend without hesitation Megan and Mangold Ranch Versatility for anyone of any age who is looking for boarding, leasing, training, lessons and/or purchasing a horse.
