I surprised my mother to go horseback riding for Mother’s Day because it’s been her dream to ride one and she ADORES horses! Though my mom was nervous at first because both of us have never ridden a horse, Alicia made sure to keep us well informed and made our visit fun and easy!! Tango and Jag were the most beautiful horses, we had a blast and will be coming back again soon! Thank you Circle T Ranch and thank you Denise for making this possible!! ❤️

If I could I would give this place 10 stars. I came to Circle T completely inexperienced, I had only ever sat on a horse while it walked around. I came here wanting to just take a couple lessons just to get on a horse. I had so much fun on the first lesson and I couldn’t stop coming out! Denise has helped me learn everything I know now and is really good matching you up with a horse that goes with your experience level and confidence. I only started regularly riding in February and with Denises help I’ve learned how to jump just after a few months along with Dressage. I started showing before the quarantine and won a few ribbons on a horse I was able to lease through Denise. All of these horses are so friendly, easy to ride and beautiful, and the ranch is quiet, relaxing and you can ride in and along the river. Denise even went out of her way to go with me to help pick out the proper tack that I needed for my riding style.

Doesnt even deserve 1 star honestly. They neglect their horses, didnt feed or water my baby, didnt seem like they were running him either. This is basically abuse and im moving my horse to another stable as soon as possible.

Paid a visit to Circle T Ranch on a family vacation to California. What an amazing facility. Theres a variety of animals to pet, play with and love on, especially the adorable donkey. My three sons had never been on horseback and were quite tentative. Denise did a great job of matching appropriate horses with each of us. We had a wonderful trail ride along the river bed, with Denise constantly making her way up and down the line ensuring each riders sense of security and comfort. We even got a fabulous family photo at the end of the ride! I would definitely recommend Circle T Ranch without hesitation and will return on our next visit!

This place is magical! All it takes is one experience at Circle T Ranch with Mrs. Denise and you’ll be hooked, just as I was. I race to get there on the days I get to go, and I always leave with happiness in my heart. I feel so blessed to be around such genuine people who have such a passion for horses. I continue to learn and grow all thanks to Denise (and the horses of course!) It’s an amazing experience I’ll never forget. Thank you Denise and family for supporting our military, special needs and everyday people just looking for a way to decompress!

Shout out to a wonderful woman Denise, she really make us feel welcome and at home. She talked about her days, her animals and funny stories. We had a great time with the horses and her dogs (bubbles I loved you) A place to go back! You will not regret it!

Denise takes care of all horses at the ranch as if theyre her own-- their care is taken very seriously and she does as much as possible to ensure that all horses are in a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. My horse struggled with weight and soundness for a long time and Denise helped us try different things until we found what worked best for her. She and the trainers at the ranch also ensure that a rider learns how to care for horses, in addition to learning to ride. The friends I made at Circle T have left an extremely positive impact on me and I treasure their presence in my life.

My daughter boards her horse here and also gives riding lessons to young children, including my grandson.We own horses and live in MN.When we visited, we spent time at the ranch. The place is clean, safe for the animals and well organized.The owners are kind, trustworthy and generous in their dealings with my daughter. Overall, a really nice place to board a horse, or take riding lessons.

I have been taking lessons with Denise for five months and I absolutely love Circle T Ranch. My weekly lessons have made me a stronger rider and have also become my favorite mental boost. The Ranch is serenely beautiful and all of the animals are so friendly and sweet. I have had the opportunity to ride several different horses, which has allowed me to become more confident when Im in the saddle. Denise is a wonderful teacher and I enjoy her warm smile and laughter during my sessions. Circle T is a gem in small town Lemoore!

I have been part of the Circle T Ranch family since December of 2017... My 11 year old daughter has been taking lessons from Mrs. Taylor, as well as competed in the Circle T show team, both in Hunter and Dressage. She gets noticeably better every time she goes into the show court and it is because of how she is treated and taught.When it came time to purchase our first horse, Denise was amazing at lending a helping hand. She didnt stop at just the basics, but drove with her horse trailer to every single place we went to look at a horse. When we finally purchased a horse, he was well taken care of, fed top of the line grain and hay.When we moved to town, there wasnt a single thought in our mind about having my 11-year old train here. This place has become a second home to my child, who has special needs, and she has improved TREMENDOUSLY by being a part of this barn.They are amazing people, honest, fair, friendly, and welcome everyone with open arms. I recommend circle T ranch to every person who wants to ride, novice or expert, this ranch has it all!!!!

I have boarded my horses here for almost 2 years, and have absolutely loved it here. The owner is great with communicating any issues with horses, and has a fantastic lesson program. My horses have never been healthier. They are fat, shiny, and happy!! I have gained so much confidence in riding since coming here, and have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of my time I spend here! Fantastic facility for boarding.

Denise is great! She takes the time to work with individuals on their goals in horsemanship.My granddaughter and I took lessons together; my granddaughter had fun and I was challenged with trail patterns and encouraged to better my seat and communication with my lesson horse.Her facility is safe and well kept in a quiet area in Lemoore, where you can work on jumping through Western pleasure.

Circle T Ranch has done so much for so many families over the years. It has been a place of comfort and support for people going through hard times, and a place of learning and fun for all. I’ve personally seen it change the lives of foster children, abused children, children with disabilities, and adults looking for something more. Whether you just want to come pet some horses and drink some wine, or improve your horsemanship and riding skills, this is the place! No other barn in the area compares.

I met Denise, by a simple google search, looking to start taking riding lessons at the age of 24! I called her, spoke to her briefly and quickly had a private lesson set up. I was put at ease by her knowledge, presence and patience. While I had some knowledge of horses, it was mostly from brief childhood experiences, and reading. I was basically a BRAND NEW RIDER, I had never sat in an english saddle, and wanted to learn to jump! It had been a life long dream, and I was determined to do it! Denise was not put off by my age, nor was she afraid to tell me like it was and she started from the ground up. Basics first, safety first. I started like she starts all her young riders, and I EXCELLED! I started off taking 1 lesson a week, and progressed to 3, and joined her show team. I was LIVING MY DREAM!! Right there beside the 8, 10 and 12 year old team mates and LOVING EVERY MINUTE! I have since left California, and still think back on my time at the Ranch often, seek her advice, and DREAM of coming back for a lesson. I have yet to find a single instructor like her, that gives me just the right criticism and praise to get me where I need to be. If your looking for a down to earth instructor, who has been there done that, and can take someone from beginning level to upper levels look no further. I got extremely lucky with my google search that day, I hope this helps yours.

I don’t even know where to start!!!! Denise welcome me and my 2 horses in with warm arms! I had previously never had to board my horses, so this wasn’t my version of happy. However, I’m so so glad to say, I couldn’t be happier out there with the BEST care they receive, the family friendly environment, and the grounds are beautiful!!! Love Circle T so much, and so so thankful God brought Denise into my life!!!! Kudo and Sister love her too!!!!

My kids (5 & 8) started taking weekly riding lessons at Circle T Ranch at the start of the year and I’ve been very impressed by how confident they’ve become as beginning riders. My firstborn, who was initially scared of being on horseback, now trots without fear and looks forward to his weekly lessons. Many thanks to the owner, Denise, who is very in tune with both horses and kids. The horses on the ranch are beautiful and well-cared for, and the dogs and cats on the ranch are a bonus for my kids who love to play with them after their lessons.My only reason for giving a 4-star instead of a 5-star rating is the lack of a covered/shaded riding arena. It would make riding in the summer months so much more enjoyable, but I also realize that it would cost alot to put up such a covering over the large riding ring.

I’ve boarded my horse at Circle T Ranch since 2014 and recommend it to anyone looking for a place to keep their horse or take lessons. My horse isn’t an easy keeper. Denise has cared for her as one of her own and continually worked with me to adjust her care to fit her changing needs. Nicely footed arenas with jumps, poles, obstacles, and lights for riding in the evening. Tons of professional resources at your disposal and an environment that supports riders who want to trail ride along the King’s River and also travel to high-level competitive shows. Highly recommend!

The team at Circle T Ranch has been awesome for our 6 year old. My daughter has ridden a few horses and has learned how to be around horses, how to properly lead a horse, how to halter and saddle, and how to ride western. English is also available. Highly recommended!!

Circle T Ranch has made my “little girl’s dream” come true. I have ridden and boarded my horse there for 5.5 years. Denise, the owner, cares for my horse like he is her own. I have learned more than I ever expected in become a horse owner and rider.We have traveled to the beach and mountains, lakes and rivers to ride. I have enjoyed every minute of my experience at Circle T. The ranch is clean, comfortable and professionally managed. Lessons are progressive to meet the needs of the rider- always interesting and challenging- just when you need that extra “something”!I have been 100% pleased with all of my experiences at Circle T and would highly recommend this ranch to anyone looking for a great riding experience.

This ranch is a little piece of heaven! The owners take attentive care to each and every animal. They treat every client like family. They are very knowledgeable with horses and how to probably take care of them. They also give extradonary lessons, which you learn as much as you possible can. It truely is a safe haven for horses and people! I would strongly recommend this riding stable to anyone and everyone.

Just finished a lesson with Erika. She is so encouraging. I am learning how to jump, in a western saddle by the way, and Erika is so good at working with me and not forcing me beyond my comfort zone. Yet my horse and I have emproved so much in just a few lessons.I also board at Circle T. My horse has never been in such good condition. Her coat is so shiny. She looks better now than when I kept her at home.Thanks Denise for taking care of my baby like she was your own.
