Horse care philosophy:
All of us strive to maintain the facility for the well-being of the horses. We are firm believers in as much turn-out time as the weather allows to ensure the mental health of our charges. We keep our own horses at the facility and treat the boarders as well, if not better than, our own. While we do change blankets, and apply boots as necessary, we do expect that the boarded horses be visited, ridden, and groomed regularly by their person. Many of our owners report that their horses become quieter, easier to handle and happier after being with us for as little as two months.

Services and rates:
As of July 1, 2025 the board rate is $950.

For services beyond the scope of the boarding contract we bill at $30 per hour.

Lessons are available from Alice Van Bokkelen

Activities:
We host Jerry Schurink regularly for both flat and jumping lessons. We also partner with our local GMOs to host various clinics throughout the year. For more information and to keep up to date with things, follow us on facebook!

Liability:
All Boarders sign a boarding agreement which includes a release of liability. All truck-ins, visiting instructors, and anyone else who gets on a horse at the facility must sign our release form.

Barn rules:
Yes, we have them! ASTM approved safety helmets MUST be worn when mounted at all times. Clean up after yourself. Updated barn rules are posted in the tack room.
