“What should you know about Michael Hochstetler? Quite a lot! Known for his exceptional ability to prepare horses for the big leagues, Michael remains the trusted expert riders turn to for success.
Michael is a licensed 4-star international rider. What makes him different is his immense knowledge of horsemanship -something he believes is the root of all good riding.
Additionally, his impeccable attention to detail makes the difference between a happy horse and rider. Drawing from a lifetime of experience with every kind of horse and rider combination, he is equipped to develop each situation into a positive learning experience building trust and confidence.
Michael’s students have been placed in the top 10 medal finals such as Macley, Pessoa, and USET.
Michael has always had horses in his life from a young age. He decided to follow his love of music and kept horses as a hobby. After a while, he was being sponsored by the likes of Range Rover, United Airlines, and Purina(where he and his horses graced feed sacks).
He competed all over the world for many years. The travel and long days were rewarded with lots of success. His next chapter is here at Love Creek Farm focusing on his latest rescued mare Ivy.”

I have been a part of Love Creek Farm since October. I am from Pennsylvania but recently relocated to the area. I graduated from college in 2024 with my degree in biology and I am on my way to becoming a science teacher. I have a huge love for animals, especially horses, and take joy in coming to the farm to care for each one! I am also a boat captain, so I love to fish in my free time. My other hobbies include spending time with my pets and family, watching movies, painting, and photography.
