Crepe Myrtle Acres Horseback Riding

A Bittersweet Update…

This past year has been full of unexpected turns, challenges, and change. Some days have tested me more than I ever thought possible but they’ve also brought growth, strength, and a clearer sense of where I’m meant to be.

After a lot of thought (and many tears), I’ve made the difficult decision to bring Crepe Myrtle Acres Horseback Riding to an end. What started as a dream became something truly special.. a place built on hard work, heart, and the love of horses and people who became family.

For all lesson inquiries or anyone wanting to continue their riding journey, please reach out to Melissa Harrelson at Relentless Farm and Arena. Melissa shares the same dedication and passion for teaching and horsemanship that Crepe Myrtle Acres was built on. You can reach her at 910-984-6835.

To everyone who has supported me, trusted me, and believed in what we built, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Crepe Myrtle Acres will always be a part of me, and I’m forever grateful for every horse, every ride, and every memory. 💜 Here’s to growth, grace, and the beauty of new beginnings.
