What boarders say

Wonderful, caring owners/staff. Our horses are happy and calm, and look great. The facility is well taken care of too. I have really enjoyed being at this barn.

Laura Hoff Current boarder

This is by far the best boarding facility that I have ever kept my senior horse at. The owner is amazing and takes pride in what he does on the farm.

Allison Fortuna Former boarder

Highly recommend. Jason and Jen are great, always working hard to keep things clean and genuinely care for the horses.

Michelle Kramer Former boarder

Absolutely love it. No drama and everyone is so friendly and kind.

Sara Fortuna Former boarder

At the barn: Jason Jorgenson (owner / barn manager) and Brenna Asch (barn hand).

Questions boarders ask

What are barn hours?

The barn is open to boarders from 8am to 9pm.

What kind of grain do you offer?

Your choice of a 12% protein pellet or a 12% protein sweet feed, available with stall or paddock board.

Is there a discount if I supply my own grain?

No — the listed rate is the base price. We'll feed any grain or supplements you supply at no extra cost.

What do I need to move my horse here?

Up-to-date vaccinations, worming, and a negative Coggins test before the horse comes onto the property.

Do you have a vet and farrier?

Yes. For most issues we use Anoka Equine Veterinary Services, less than 15 miles away, and we have a farrier on call whenever needed.

Are the arenas open to the public?

No. We keep the facility quiet for our boarders.
