Cash Lovell Stables & Riding Academy Darwick Rd, Winston Salem

We had our sons 9th birthday party at the stables on Saturday and it was amazing!! Michelle Lovell Jones took such good care of all of our guests and birthday boy. The party room was clean and everything was ready for us when we arrived. I had been in contact with Michelle prior to the party date via text when I had questions about party details and she answered my questions right away. Everyone at the stables helps with the birthday parties. The young ladies that volunteered for our party showed the kids the goats and educated us on them and took us to see the chickens and one solo duck that hangs with the chickens. The pig was more than welcoming of belly rubs. I honestly can’t say enough about these wonderful ladies!! Everyone Finn met there wished him a happy birthday and made him feel so loved. This day was a very special one for him!! They made us all feel welcome and we had 15 kids + adults, it was a busy day!! Nice work ladies and keep up the great work!! You really have a special place and wonderful staff of volunteers!! Thank you all so very much!!

I booked my daughter’s birthday party here just last Friday. At first glance, it seemed that it was a bit expensive and didn’t think she would even want to ride! My husband and I are so thankful we had the opportunity host our special girl’s special day with the assistance of Michelle! Jocelyn was not afraid in the least bit! She wanted to get back on again and again, Michelle was very patient with all of our crazy kiddos, her helpers at the barn were very polite, and She even stayed a few minutes late to allow us one last group photo with Mr Phil!!! Thank you so much for a fun experience 🙂

We did the birthday party package, and it was great. Of course, the horses were a big hit, but they had actually had a play area with games set up in the area where the kids were waiting their turn-- with an attendant (huge bonus). This made the experience so much fun for the kids. We felt really safe with Michelle who fitted all the helmets and make sure the kids got on and off the horse well. The party room was really well equipped with lots of counterspace to set up the food. Given that it came with a sink and several outlets, we had no problems bringing food and setting up an already heated crockpot with meatballs. This was really great.

Absolutely unmatched environment for learning about horses and how to ride them. My 5 year old, 7 year old and I (44) all take riding lessons at Cash Lovell stables. Parker and Cashlyn are master horsewomen with a noteworthy talent for instructing riders of all ages in a manner that is safe, supportive, effective and tailored to the individual level of the rider. The barn manager, Kathleen, is fantastic and ensures an efficient and safe environment for the horses and riders. Cash Lovell Stables is a truly special place that fostered an immediate love of riding and horses in our entire family - cannot recommend them enough!

I took a small break from riding due to college and life, but as horse people have the same feeling, horses are my happy place and I joined Cash Lovell Stables about 3 years ago. Even though I grew up around horses a large portion of my life, I can tell you that my horsemanship has drastically improved through being a member of this barn in its excellent lesson program and working with the wonderful people that make Cash Lovell Stables home. I was initially a bit nervous to go since I am an adult but there are plenty of other riding adults and you can create a great community of folks.They are not joking that this is a family barn, all ages join and work together to make Cash Lovell Stables the special place that it is. I sincerely hope you check out this stable because it is truly one of a kind.

My five year old started riding lessons several months ago at Cash Lovell after I found a great deal on a Groupon. She loves her instructor Kelly! After a few turns watching her younger sister ride, my 9 year old wanted in on the fun and has really connected with her instructor Alex. This is a great stable that stresses safety, values and work ethic. The summer camp program was amazing and my girls are already talking about going back next year. I don't think I've ever felt so comfortable leaving my kids somewhere before. We feel very lucky to have found Cash Lovell.

Such a wonderful barn! My daughter has ridden at Cash Lovell Stables for 7 years now! Parker and Cashlyn are such wonderful mentors to all of the kids at the barn. I’m so very thankful that we chose to ride at Cash Lovell all those years ago. My daughter is surrounded by an amazing group of women and role models thanks to them. She doesn’t just show up to ride, she’s learned how to care for the horses, the value of teamwork, and developed a strong work ethic. I truly feel this is something that other local barns do not offer.

I highly recommend Cash Lovell stables. I have been riding here for little more than a year and it has become my second home. I love the horses and the people. I just recently switched to saddle seat and I absolutely love it! Cash Lovell is a wonderful place to ride.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Cash Lovell Stables. I have boarded my life long horse here for going on 2 years now. She gets the best care, and the staff are very accommodating to each horse's unique needs. You will not find a more passionate and hard working group of workers at any other barn. I feel so safe having my horse here, and confident that she is getting the care and attention she needs. CLS hands down has the best grain and natural supplements of any barn I have been to in my 14 years of experience. Furthermore, the lesson program here is the most unique that I have ever seen- in all the best ways! It is incredibly dynamic as they offer saddle-seat, hunt-seat, trick riding, barrel racing, and more! I have never seen so many different styles of riding under the same roof. The trainers and owners, Parker and Cashlyn Lovell, are incredibly experienced and two of the NICEST and most inspiring people you will ever meet. Another great aspect to this barn is that you can compete if you would like to, but there is no pressure if showing is not your thing. Something else I highly respect about this barn is that if you do show, you learn that winning is not everything. If you win that is wonderful, of course! But what is more important is that you are respectful to your horse, do your best, and encourage people around you. The top priority of this barn is horse care, and building a bond with the horses to understand them even further. None of the horses here are mistreated in the slightest, honestly they are all incredibly spoiled (as they should be) which makes them happy and live a positive life. This barn has wonderful people of all ages. There is no drama here (woohoo)! I cannot recommend this barn enough for lessons and/or boarding.

I have been going to Cash LoveilStables since my 15th birthday back in 2016 because my parents and I remembered I use to love doing it when I was much younger. Over the duration of my time here from 2016-2018 I had such a caring, heart filled, cheering, daily oriented experience. Sure that the lessons get tougher each time you go there for a session or two, But the most important thing that many people don’t realize is constant hard work goes a long way. Mrs. Parker and her daughter who I’am very close friends with always tries their absolute best to reach young as well as older kids about integrity both with in yourself and the horses in order to become a pro rider at the stables. From my experience the lectures at the en or beginning of my lessons that Mrs. Parker gives is supposed to be a eye opener and remind you of what you learn while riding can help you conquer life’s toughest challenges. The camps that I have been to are super fun and it allows precious, old, and new riders to explore as well as expand their knowledge on how much hard work goes into taking care of their horses and teach kids/teens about how Cash Loveil Stables works more in depth. You’ll also meet tons of people during camp as well the friends that I have met personally I still come in contact with today! The people at Cash Loveil Stables for example do always check in with you and are very friendly/family oriented which I mentioned earlier (means they accept you as their own family and highly respected) whenever you don’t come to your lessons because Of a very jake packed schedule they’ll always try their best to reach out to you! Their horse shows that I have been to are incredibly fun, entertaining, exciting and impactful. The competition for my experience hasn’t really been to terribly heavy they are mostly causal, light, enjoyable and relaxing. Cash Loveil slStables also holds occasional Christmas parties, Halloween Parties and etc. Mrs Parker along with the rest of the crew works extremely hard towards maintaining the foundation of the barn and keeping it clean! One final thing I have to add is the flexibility is superiorly efficient and strong when you need your lesson plans moved towards a later date they will have you covered! They’ll also provide you information way early in advance if they have a scheduled week or month for then to go out of town to a competition! As long as you subscribe to their email on their website or ask Mrs Parker she’ll be your beat lady to hook you up! Overall Cash Loveil Stables is a outstanding place and you certainly will never regret going there l!
