Reviews
tripadvisorI stayed in the Buttons room and it was clean and comfortable on arrival. My host greeted me and brought me to the small apartment where I would be staying. She was helpful and accommodating to my schedule. The view of the cross country out of my front window was beautiful. I would highly recommend Stable View Farm for a quiet, relaxing stay close to Aiken. I will be staying here again in the future.
MoreAs an out of town guest, I booked a stay by phone for a wedding I was attending at Stable View. The farm itself is lovely, the management staff, not so much. The entire management of the wedding was handled extremely poorly. They booked me in an area, charged my credit card ($109) only to call me days before the wedding to tell me that room in the Hunt Box area is not available (reserved for groomsmen) and that my only option would be to upgrade to a room Bo more than twice as much ($225). Seriously, it's a horse farm. They would not absorb the additional cost but they were real quick to say the bride would. After thinking it through, we opted to bring our RV ($44.50) instead so we nor the bride would incur the unnecessary additional expense ($116). They tried to give us grief about the change and not permit it but they reservation got changed from a room to an RV spot. Upon arrival a check was handed to me rather than the credit for the difference of the fee. The bride/groom however were not refunded immediately, they had to wait until the deposit was processed. One had nothing to do with the other. They grass area was not cut for RV parking when it clearly could have been for incoming guests. They blamed everything that went wrong on the bride though a quick conversation with her clearly identified it was indeed the mgmt group that was at fault. The property is not lit well enough to host weddings. It was dangerous terrain just getting to the parking lot. Though they take reservations for their accommodations, they don't answer the phone. The rehearsal dinner was in the barn and the chairs were filthy. Total disappointment considering how much this young couple put out for this to be at an advertised wedding venue. They are trying to capitalize on a market that they clearly are not groomed properly for. The location for the wedding was facing into the sun. The wedding arch was poorly located in that all pictures taken had their trash truck in them. My suggestion is to hire someone that is exclusively an event coordinator for the property that understands it's supposed to be they most special day of ones lives.
MoreWe compete in Area 3 a lot and this was great for my horse and daughter. We will be back again for their series of shows this next year. Not sure about the other reviews but one of the best places I've stayed for a horse show.
MoreMuch like the previous review, the facility itself is great. When it comes to hospitality, there is zero. We stayed/are staying for a few months during the off-season, renting an apartment and an 8 stall barn. With no warning, notice or giving us alternative options, the owners decided to start a massive construction project directly outside our apartment, barn and paddocks. We moved the horses immediatly because of the dangerous situation. Anyone that knows horses would know that this is not safe and puts the horses in emmenant danger and unnecessary stress. The owners only reached put to me after I put a stop payment on my check which they deposited anyway along with an additional check. Emails where bullying and threatening in nature demanding that we pay or get locked out. Currently they have deposited and are holding not only the initial check for the month for the stalls and apartment but also an additional check for the apartment rental, and my security deposits. The only tghing they care about is their money. Hospitality and understanding are not in their vocabulary. Don't waste your money here, you'll never see it back if there is a problem nor will they be forthcoming with a resolution. You will experience a complete lack of empathy and an overload of bullying. Sad and pathetic. Photos are of directly outside of our barn and apartment. They saw no issue with doing this work, giving us no notice nor options and expect that we still pay even with the horses having been immediately removed when I saw they started drilling massive holes.
MoreMy family rented the 3/2 bungalow for our nieces wedding.The property is beautiful and well kept but very dark at night. The only sign of life, are the focal lamps pointed towards the main barn. The bungalow was nicely appointed with excellent bedding and great mattresses. The kitchen had everything one could ever need to prepare a simple meal or a feast. We particularly appreciated the washer and dryer as we were able to travel home without dirty laundry. The listing of amenities notes they have cable TV and they probably do, but the cable in our unit was disconnected. We asked a staff member about it, but they were unsure and said they would have someone come down and look at it, but we never saw anyone. We also wanted to inquire about an additional rental but the two phone numbers we had just went straight to voice mail, so they lost out on that, but the bigger question is what if there had been a problem at our rental....busted plumbing, etc.? Really? Who is responsible for making sure things are proper and guests are taken care of? Not one staff member ever called or checked in to see if things were running smoothly but they did call and ask me to pay for the rehearsal venue which I thought was incredibly rude since I was simply a WEDDING GUEST! Then the woman on the phone sounded put out when I told her she had the wrong person. I mean, who does this? It was so inappropriate. We had a wonderful time at Stable View for our nieces wedding, but I expected more hospitality and southern graciousness with this being a southern wedding venue. Again, the property is beautiful and our unit was extremely nice, but I will not rent nor will I recommend Stable View. Rude and aloft staff are totally unacceptable.
