Maplewood Equestrian Centre

Maplewood is the friendliest barn in Ottawa. The horses are extremely happy, the staff is very respectful, the owners are very professional and give a lot of valuable horse tips. I've been riding there for 4 year and have never been disappointed in any of the coaches and even school horses. The coaches are extremely nice, patient and give you so much important knowledge. I've been volunteering there for about 3 years and the barns are always kept clean and safe.
I wouldn't change barns for anything!

I've been at Maplewood for a few months now as a part-leaser of a boarded horse. The whole team welcomed me with open arms and I've settled in nicely with everyone being super friendly. The owners are accommodating to my schedule and always ensure safety and happiness of clients and horses. The barns and arena are kept in immaculate shape and the turnout schedule is rotated and consistent to ensure pasture upkeep. The barn runs pretty seamlessly and consistently with the set of rules and expectations in place which makes it a great atmosphere to ride in. I have nothing but good things to say!

I've been riding at Maplewood for about 7 years now and I've never had a reason to leave. They have helped me grow and improve as a rider in both a respectful and a professional environment. The atmosphere is extremely joyful and the people are respectful and nice. I always look forward to my my weekly lessons! As a student and employee, this is an ideal place to learn how to ride horses since their main focus is to have fun :). The coaches are very patient and help you work to achieve your equestrian goals, and the lesson prep leaders never hesitate to help. I have nothing negative to say about the staff as well as the owners, they are all very kind and lovely people.

Great Stable! Lovely staff and coaches! Owners are so so welcoming and nice. I’ve been riding here for three years now and i don’t have any complaints! Thanks for everything!!

My 8 yr old daughter just finished a 1 week camp and had a wonderful time. Despite being the youngest camper there she was well received and given appropriate attention and opportunity. The staff (and horses) were all very friendly and professional (they went out of their way to accomodate her peanut allergy). The camp is clean, inviting and well organized. Highly recommend to anyone!
