absolutely nothing good about this hole. If you want your horse to suffer send it here. This maniac should not be allowed near any animal.

Lets Ride Farms

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I am so pleased with boarding my horse at Lets Ride Farms. Joal is a very nice person who takes very good care of my horse.

She goes above and beyond what I could ever do personally to care for my horse myself. My horse is always well fed and groomed when I can't get there to do it myself. She also gives my daughter riding lessons which are very reasonably priced. My daughter has learned so much from Joal including self discipline and a higher self esteem.

I would highly recommend her to anyone. I have never smelled a hint of alcohol or heard her speak with foal language.

So I think the other review I read must have been from a very bitter and disrespectful person who is out to ruin someone's lively hood. Shame on you!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have justed started to take leason with Joal B. I am having a great time.

Her prices are great and I have learn more in the 1st leason then ever from anyone else on horse back riding from anyone else ever. This is a great place! Joal B horses are calm and great to learn on. I will be leasing a horse for the winter so I can ride when ever in her very large barn.

Joal is so nice and takes extra time with out seeking to get more dollars. I go every week for a lesson and love it! .......... .............................................

Yes its a wonderful place to board and Joal is very good to deal with. The only person (an ***) that says otherwise is nothing but a trouble maker that has not a friend and is so desperate for attention. She has been kicked out of every barn and house shes ever been in, she looks like an old ugly clown and thinks shes smart and pretty, total entertainment lmao, so any negative posts about Joal and Lets ride farm are made by a retaed that has NO life, totally disregard the pos basement dweller LOL

LETS RIDE FARMS, COLEMAN MI

I would like anyone reading the below post to know that I was extremely upset with Joal upon leaving her facility. I would like to remove my post, however this site will not allow me to do so.

I ask that anyone reading this post, please ignore it. I do not wish any ill feelings to Joal.

Original review Nov 06, 2011

If you love your horse, never take it to this boarding place, owned by Joal Brisbois. She is a drunk and a mooch and puts your horse in danger.

She over charges, she uses terrible language, she allows young boarders to bring in horses not suitable for a boarding facility. She is rude and will make you feel very uncomfortable when you go to leave, she is a convicted felon. The fences need repaired and she has dogs that she allows to chace and *** the horses.

Beware of this farm. It is not suitable for boarding and should be closed.

I have to say that I agree she has some anger issues that need to be taken care of I personally never met this so called lady in person but I am here to tell you she threatened to beat my *** and invited me over while she waited with her shot gun, she called me and I simply asked why she was calling me and bam she turned in to a angered *** calling me every name she could think of.. oh *** yeah that is a place I would like to board and take my animals and kids riding lessons. She needs some help..

In defense to the barn, if you would have done as you were asked when you picked up your colt, there would have never been an issue. But she called you because you called the potential buyer of the colt asking what happened to his eye.

You then freaked out that it wasn't any of her business, which it was! You both lost your tempers and said things that were not adult like.

Well I have to say April and Joel or who ever did the post about myself and my colt first off its a done deal im over the drama and have been for a long time. I have the colt he is happy healthy and down right perfect now!

And second off joel it took me a while to figure out what you were talking about Google and anonymous post and for the record I didn't write the above because trust me I would not of been afraid to sign my name on that post because like most I have nothing to hide so who ever wrote that post acting as if you were me get all the facts prior to posting as me! And FYI joal I don't need to post on a *** Google pissed off consumers page!!

Guest

Joal has two disorderly conduct charges. She was ordered to have treatment as well!

I don't know her but I know she is drunk as stated per the police reports!

Look it up in the Coleman Public records! It's a fact!

I boarded and worked at Lets Ride Farm for 2 years and I AM the young boarder that is stated above. The person that wrote this was mad because I was bringing in a stud that I had bought and she didn't think that I should have been allowed to bring him in, even tho she had a gelding that wasn't even going to be pastured near the stud.

The only negative thing I can say about my time at the barn is the Dog. Yes he chases the horses and bites at them, she has a shock collar on him and shocks him when he does so. As for the fencing, we repaired them anytime anything got broken. I left a couple months ago due to my own financial issues and so I don't know of the conditions of the fencing and stuff as of right know but I am sure she has kept up on them as we did when I was there.

As for her being Belligerent, well I would rather have someone that tells me like it is, rather than someone that sugar coats everything. As for the over pricing, really?!? she is the cheapest in the area, and the only way to go cheaper is to keep your horse at your own home and then you don't have FULL access to the facility.

As soon as I get my financial state back in order I will be returning.... :) ,) :zzz :roll

Guest

my horse is very happy here, everything is kept clean and she is well cared for. the owner is very accommodating, all this negative stuff written is from a *** person by the name of wendy adams, she is from clare mi at the time, and from what i have been told, is useless fat and lazy and mentally impaired.
