Main Barn
The main barn is impressive. Thoughtful design allows ample ventilation and natural light to pass through many windows. The upper windows in each exterior stall showcase the height of the barn, drawing your eyes up. Subtle and tasteful green details are found throughout the structure.
Light filters through the barn entrance of the large cupola.
There are a total of 54 spacious stalls spread over seven stable lanes. Along with the main barn, there are two additional smaller barns on the property.
Each stall is 16-19 square meters with rubber matting and a solarium, allowing the horses to be comfortably dried or warmed individually.
Along with individual solariums in the stalls, solariums are located above the grooming stalls to keep the horses warm before and after training.
The largest solarium is situated in the wash stall, allowing horses to be bathed year round with warm water.
Tack Rooms
There are 6 tack rooms for boarders to store their saddles and personal belongings with spacious cupboards throughout the barns. A common lounge, changing room and nice showers are also available to riders and visitors.
Training Spaces
In 2021, a new indoor arena was completed. It’s 26.8 x 68 meters, equipped with LED lighting and a high/low tide system to provide perfect footing for training.
There are two large horse walkers for daily exercise with a large lunging circle in the middle of each for multiple uses.
The 250 meter covered racetrack offers a chance to condition horses in any weather conditions and vary the horse’s exercise. There is also a sand racetrack on the grounds as well.
