We are located near the intersection of Ga Highway 20 and East Cherokee Road in Cherokee County.
Being a private facility with only 6 stalls allows us to provide customized, individualized care for your horse. This also limits contention for use of the arena.
The farm is located on a very quiet, gently winding foothill road with only neighbor traffic. Golf carts are a preferred method of travel. There are several equestrian facilities nearby with riders frequently about.
Owners live on the premises.
One part-time employee assists with cleaning stalls, maintenance of grounds, and other farm work, as needed.
All disciplines are welcome.
All ages are welcome. Younger riders will need a guardian or trainer present when riding.
Established in 2011.
Owner has over 30 years of experience with horses. Owner rides frequently and has a hands-on approach to caring for horses.

Care of Horses
Boarding horses receive the same care as our horses. We provide full care including blanketing in the winter and dispensing deworming medicines.
We provide night turnout in the summer.
Horses are turned out daily, except one day a week of rest in the stalls, usually Wednesday.
We will work with owner’s preferences, as long as they can be reasonably accommodated.
We use premium horse feed and supplement with premium hay, if needed. Managing all the horse’s weight is a top priority. We will accommodate your feeding preferences, including beet pulp, owner provided supplements, etc., as long as within reason.
We provide assistance with light duty extra needs like soaking a sore foot or wrapping a leg.
All veterinarian expenses, including medicines, wormers, etc., are the responsibility of the horse owner.
Farrier tends to horses every 3 weeks, allowing for flexible scheduling. Or, bring your own farrier.
All farrier expenses are the responsibility of the owner.
