'Graceland has become Rachel's home away from home'Back in November, 2014 my daughter Rachel decided that she wanted to advance her riding in the hunter/jumper ring. At a local MHA show, she found her next trainer - Kim Laursen with Pyramid Sport Horse. We were delighted to begin training with Kim and not only did Kim immediately connect with Rachel, she found us an amazing horse to full lease and immediately began her training business at Graceland Equestrian Center. "We fell in love!" When do all three things fall into place at the same time - excellent trainer, perfect horse and amazing barn and facility!! Put it this way, Graceland has become Rachel's home away from home.
There is such a cohesive and friendly environment between all of the boarders and various trainers throughout the barn. Everyone cooperates and communicates positively all the time. This is a tribute to Peggy and Chuck Moore who are the owners of Graceland Equestrian Center. Not only do they provide a warm and friendly environment, but they are extremely devoted and dedicated to the care of the horses and facilities on their property. Chuck is constantly fixing things and improving facilities and Peggy is making sure that each horse and rider are cared for. They are a true team which makes all boarders feel very welcomed and a part of their team.

Graceland's environment is friendly and has been a wonderful experience for our whole family.After riding and boarding our horse at three different stables in the area, Graceland Equestrian is, by far, our favorite. The owners, Chuck and Peggy Moore, are right there and know you by 1st name. Graceland's environment is friendly and has been a wonderful experience for our whole family. My girls enjoy taking lessons by instructors who are skilled and enthusiastic. The training programs are suitable for people of all ages and skill levels. We were impressed with the lesson options offered to suit our busy schedule & advancing riders.
Our girls began with beginner level lessons and have advanced into confident hunter jumpers and now are enjoying the cross country course. They also enjoy trail riding on the beautiful Graceland trails. The stalls are clean and the horses well cared for with vet service readily available. We noticed that our horse is much happier here at Graceland. She not only rides better but her ground manners have improved markedly.

'...you feel of belonging to a big family and willingness of owners Chuck & Peggy Moore to help at anytime.'My daughter and I have been riding in Graceland for past five years, and must say that by far, this is one of the best barns which we have been member of in Bay Area. One of the comparison to other barns is that at Graceland, you feel of belonging to a big family and willingness of owners Chuck & Peggy Moore to help at anytime. The other comparison is that at Graceland, the professionalism that they maintain this 90 acres facility with is well beyond what I have experienced at other barns; like keeping the barn clean at all times, well maintained trials, well maintained indoor/outdoor arenas, feeding program, breading, etc.

'The wonderful groomed trails that meander through the lovely rolling hills of the property are perfect for conditioning my horse and keeping him very fit.'I consider myself very fortunate to able to board my horse at Peggy and Chuck Moore’s beautiful Graceland Equestrian Center. Around 4 years ago I was looking for a safe and sane place to board my horse when a friend, who was boarding at Graceland, recommended it. When I moved my horse to Graceland, I was competing in trail trial competitions and I was a little concerned that I wouldn’t fit in since I didn’t compete in 3 day eventing, which is what the owners focus on. But I found Peggy and the trainers at Graceland welcoming and friendly with riders of all disciplines. The wonderful groomed trails that meander through the lovely rolling hills of the property are perfect for conditioning my horse and keeping him very fit.
For the past couple of years, due to a change in my work schedule, I send my horse out to winter pasture, but I always come back to Graceland in the spring and it always feels like I’m coming home.
