Royal Point Equestrian: Relocated & Revamped

Equestrian enthusiasts will want to check out Royal Point Equestrian. Formally Pink Crown Farms, Melissa Maitland moved her business onto the property and has revamped the business. They are a multifaceted horse business that does not necessarily have a specialty but offers anything within the English style.

Royal Point Equestrian offer lessons, camps, boarding, trading, sales, etc., and they are the one-stop shop for horses in ETX. Customers can either use Royal Point Equestrian horses for lessons, or board their own there.

“But we want to make it known that we're open to the public for riding lessons,” Maitland said. “We board horses, we train horses, we do sales, but I think the biggest thing Longview needs to know is that we're here. For both adults and young kids we are here to teach riding because previously it was not open for that, it was more private.”

Royal Point Equestrian offers help for all stages of riders, from beginners who have never gotten on a horse to advanced riders interested in competing, traveling, etc. They will travel across the state to several different competitions, including an IEA (Interscholastic Equestrian Association) team, one that gives opportunities for kids who do not own horses to get the show experience. They do summer camps, a Christmas camp, and have plans to offer several other camp-like opportunities. Royal Point has three trainers, Melissa Maitland (owner), Kristen Stinson and Heather Kilby who all work together to make the operation run smoothly.

“I grew up in East Texas, Longview area, and now I’m back,” Maitland said. “I’m happy to be back and we just want everyone to know that we’re here.”
