Fun on The Farm
We are a full service equestrian facility offering Training, Guided Trail Rides, Summer Youth Camps, Lessons and
 Overnight Camping trips along with various Riding Programs in beautiful
Sand Ridge State Forest with direct
access to the trails from our property.  There is abundant wildlife and beautiful scenery.   We are not a fancy
facility but a family facility where we hope you feel like you are part of our family.  We have a heated lounge with
direct access from stalls to the indoor arena area.  In the office you will find seating, refrigerator, TV and  DVD
player with plenty of books and magazines for your reading pleasure.  We have an outdoor wash rack.  We do have
riding instructors available at the stable for those desiring educational opportunities.  We also have direct access
to miles of trails and fire lanes in the scenic Sand Ridge State Forest where the  7,200-acre boasts sweeping
expanses of native oak-hickory, extensive plantations of pine, sprawling open fields, grasslands, and completely
unique sand prairies. For a refreshing, invigorating taste of unspoiled nature and an opportunity to experience a  
truly unique environment, Sand Ridge State Forest is ideal.  With 55
miles of trails and over 150 miles of fire lanes
offer the average horse rider an excellent opportunity.
