Why us?
What makes us different and why should you spend time here? 
  •  We listen and cater to the individual needs of our clients. Although we offer a menu of options, we often create new items upon request. We offer a non-judgmental and safe environment for learning, growth, healing, and change. 
  • We are a quiet, private facility, catering to individuals, not the masses.  People come by appointment or by registering for an event. We do not have a constant stream of traffic. 
  • Our facilities were developed with detail in mind, are top quality, comfortable, safe, inviting, and like a second home to our clientele.  We are not in a strip mall, sterile office or a storefront on a main road. We are not a busy boarding/show barn.
  • We love animals and people very much.  Therefore, we have offerings for both. We are way more than horses.  We help horses, dogs & other animals as well as people! We just happen to have a horse farm name. :)
  • We offer an alternative to the norm and think outside the box. Whether your interest is in horsemanship, holistic healing, or just learning how to have fun, we have it all and want to help. Give us a try and you'll surely want to spend more time here!
