Miniature horses and ponies as well as standard size horses are available.

Camp runs from 8 a.m. - noon. Visit our calendar page for available camp weeks. Lessons (Western, English, Hunter/Jumper) – designed for able-bodied individuals who wish to learn how to ride a horse and enhance their riding abilities.

Competitive Riding and Games on Horseback – a fun way of using the horse to promote a positive atmosphere and to showcase the skills and efforts of disabled and able-bodied equestrians (coming soon). Driving – a way to enjoy the freedom of the horse, without actually riding the horse, by riding in a horse drawn cart (coming soon). Miniature Horses – for petting, grooming, showing and hugging. These little guys are perfect for individuals not able to ride or aren’t comfortable up on a horse.
