    I am interested in hunt seat and dressage students who are interested in learning, both in the saddle and out…about riding and horses. I teach students from four years and up.

    Special programs during the summer for all students including horse showing, gymkhanas, “barn ratting”, and Pony Club D and C programs. I believe that riding is an activity that teaches coordination, and self-confidence, and responsibility…on top of just being a lot of fun and a chance to be dirty and happy!

Overnight Boarding
Overnight boarding is available depending on scheduled events. All overnight boarders are placed in the show stalls. The owner must supply buckets, feed and bedding. Shavings are available for purchase at $8.00 per bag. All overnights are $15.00 per night, per horse, per stall. Please call ahead for reservations. A current Coggins test (within the last 6 months) is required prior to horse entering barn.

The two arenas north of the boarding barns, the round pen, and the dressage ring above the round pen are part of the boarding barn area and are available for use by the boarders (with the exception of a few events at the facility that require the use of one or more of these arenas). There is access from the barn area to the trail system and the cross country course. The stadium, indoor arena and the arenas below the indoor are available for use when events are not in progress.

Training is not provided by the barn but can be contracted separately with the trainers that board and/or train here at the facility. All trainers are required to file certain insurance requirements prior to teaching at this facility and are required to pay a per lesson training fee. Anyone that hauls into the facility who is not a current boarder must pay a $5.00 per horse haul in/parking fee. Use of the cross country course is not included - a separate fee and signed release are required for such use.
