Watching the international horse jumping shows is always interesting. They have buses that take you from the parking lot to the grounds and back and during the summer you can wait for a very long time for the bus to come (long lines.) Nice to see the horses in the barns and be able to sit outside and eat. More

When I go here I plan for the whole day, there is lots to look at. It is the place to see horse competition when the stampede isn't on. More

We got free tickets to an event here. Was a long drive, but worth it. Beautiful facility and very clean. There were things for the whole family here. You can even bring dogs. Lots of horse related areas and can get a education as well. Will definitely be back. Tickets are reasonable and you can spend the whole day there.... More

We attended 'The Masters' in September. We have gone a few times before. It is excellent! I will suggest a few things to consider if I may. There are many different levels of tickets for everyone's varrying pocket depth. If you are a real die-hard, must see every single jump, purchase the expensive tickets that will have you inside, behind... More
