Facility charge = $30.00
Our clients use some or all of our facility when visiting for lessons - bedded stall, wash stalls, grazing areas, parking, trails, indoor and outdoor arenas, client lounge areas etc. So the addition of what is commonly called a ‘ring fee’ seemed appropriate given the overall costs of maintaining the facility.

Dressage Training Program
Training program starts at $1200.00 per month
Any combination of horse and rider will vary in ability and experience. We will design a program specifically for you and your horse to best address your individual needs - from owner/riders working to move up the levels; to owner/investors wishing to have a professional rider train and show their horse.
Once we understand you and your horse we can better determine how to help you achieve your goals which is why it is impossible to make one price suit all clients.
We try to provide you with a realistic expectation of what the costs involved are. Any prices quoted that are not on your specific boarding and training contract are for information purposes only.
Rehabilitation board and retirement board are priced according to the needs of the horse.
Leasing or Purchasing
We can advise and help you source appropriate lease or sale horses.
Secure Trailer Storage
We have limited availability for 24 hour secure, covered trailer storage to provide the best protection against Virginia’s winter weather.
