Soft Landing Stables, LLC

Soft Landing Stables is a hunter-jumper show facility offering full-care and field board, horseback riding lessons, and leases to local equestrians. SLS provides competitive hunter-jumper riders and their horses with top of the line care and a supportive environment.

Soft Landing Stables is proud to call long-time trainer and 'r' rated hunter and equitation judge, Lyndi Prettyman-Caruso, our resident trainer. Lyndi offers private and group lessons for our riders as well as coaching at local rated and unrated shows. She guides beginner or advanced riders toward their goals, whether they want to compete and win at "A" shows or develop a balanced seat for trail riding.

Soft Landing Stables is conveniently located just 20 minutes from Capitol Hill, 30 minutes from downtown DC, and 15 minutes from Old Town Alexandria. The 40 acre facility offers 25 acres of well maintained pastures enclosed by three-board oak fencing, and nestled quietly within the privacy of the surrounding treeline and Potomac River. The horses are kept in large pastures (up to 10 acres in size) and have plenty of room to run and play.
