Indoor Arena
Our large indoor arena offers kick boards all around for horse and rider safety. We also have dust free fiber footing that ensures the best shock absorption and traction for high performance horses.
Paddocks
Skyland offers thousands of feet of oak board fencing surround acres of grass paddocks . This allows a safe and enjoyable space for horses to enjoy the outdoors. Our paddocks are all seeded annually and carefully managed so that your horse is provided with the best turnout possible. We also have small rehabilitation paddocks for those horses who cannot have access to rich grass or are recovering from an injury. We love turnout and believe it’s essential to having horses that are happy. However, we do not turnout when conditions are icy, slippery or muddy. Alternative forms of exercise are arranged during those limited turnout times.
Sand Ring
Our newly built 100x200 sand ring offers excellent footing and a large grass area surrounding it.
Our beautiful grass ring is built with a sandy loam soil, so it’s never hard or slippery. It’s a fantastic opportunity to get out and enjoy a stress free ride anytime of day!
We are also in the process of constructing derby style fences to allow our horses and riders to prepare for special classes throughout the season.
Tack Room
All of our clients have access to storage for their saddles, bridles and equipment in our large tack room. We also have a microwave, refreshments table, water cooler and fridge available at all times.
You will often find fresh made snacks, lemonade or occasionally a chilled glass of Chardonnay (Adults only of course!) waiting for you after your ride!
Stalls
All of our stalls are constructed out of Ash with custom steel doors that are extra wide. The stall sizes vary from 10x11 to 16x12, the majority are 12x12. The grill door allows for more ventilation and for us to be able to see into the stall at all times. They are bedded deeply on wood shavings and mucked twice a day.
