🎒🐴 Back to School = Back in the Saddle! 🐴🎒

With school back in session, it’s the perfect time to plan your School Year Lease — running from September 1st through June 1st!

Whether you're a rider (or a parent of one!) looking for more time in the saddle beyond regular lessons — without the full cost of horse ownership — leasing is the ideal solution.

✅ Flexible options available:
• Ride 1x per week,
• Choose a partial lease (3–4x/week),
• Or go all in with a full lease!

💰 Choose monthly payments or save with discounted payment in full.
🐎 We have several wonderful horses available now, suited for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders. Ride indoors, outdoors, or enjoy trail rides — all year round.
AFTERSCHOOL LEASES optional, that’s right- Drop off and pock up later!

📸 Horses pictured below will be available for lease — stay tuned for more details coming soon!
Message us to schedule a meet & greet or to learn more about our available lease horses!

PHARAOH: 6 year old QH mare, Green but sturdy mount. Loves trail rides and being out of the ring. She will jump a course with an advanced rider, or trot around with a confident beginner. She’s been shown since she was 2 and does super in the ring, just needs some miles.

REGGIE - 16 hand, 9 year old QH gelding. Super fun guy! Currently shown by an intermediate rider. New to the show ring but is doing well! WTC. Lives to be low and slow but will pick up and move forward when asked.

BUDDY- Halfinger gelding, SOLID WTC, quiet kick and go mount. Rides and drives, we are thrilled to have him for the school year. More photos to come.

River- not pictured yet! Beautiful moving 15 hand Bay mare. WTC, rides like a couch! Needs a firm rider then will do whatever is asked. Spent the summer at camp and kids rode her and jumped! Would be great for a student looking to advance their riding skills. River also is a sturdy trail mount. Ba****ck, backwards, upside down, she doesn’t care!

“Camp is hot.
Camp is fun.
Camp is hard work.
Camp is working on all of the skills that you don’t have time to work on during lessons.
Camp is meeting new friends.
Camp is learning to be kind.
Camp is learning to be humble.
Camp is a testament to how much our campers love to be at the barn.”

It’s not glorified. Horses are hard work. Horses are endless work. But horses are also an immeasurable amount of joy, whether you’re on them, around them, or learning to care for them. 

My passion for horses began at a “horse camp” 20 years ago, and I hope for them “horse camp” stays with them too. Here’s to 3 days of camp done, one to go!
