✨ Staff Introduction | Shady Grove Horse Ranch ✨

We’ve made a lot of changes here at Shady Grove over the past year, and as we head into the new year, we’d love to officially introduce our incredible staff.

After a long search to find the right people for our barn, we truly feel like we’ve hit the jackpot.

🐴 Meet Our Guides: Courtney Lane & Katelyn Caya

If you’ve visited the barn before, chances are you’ve already met one (or both) of these amazing ladies.

Courtney is a Montana native with years of experience in the saddle and has blessed our little mountain town with her knowledge and expertise in horses. She also worked tirelessly all last summer helping get the barn into the great shape it’s in today.

Katelyn joined us from Georgia and, despite running her own lesson program, is always around to lend a hand or guide a ride (or two). Her dedication, horsemanship, and passion for helping others shine through in everything she does.

These ladies are deeply committed to providing top notch care, not only for our hardworking horses, but for every single guest who walks down our barn aisles.

🤍 Shady Grove is proud to be all woman owned and all woman operated business.

✨ Please keep us in mind when planning your visit to Mentone. We strive to create a truly magical experience with memories that last a lifetime. 🐎🌿
