Equestrian facilities include an impressive 66' x 144' indoor arena, a 75' x 200' outdoor arena, and a barn offering eight stalls and a tack room/lounge warmed by a Harman pellet stove. The indoor arena also incorporates a flexible six-stall utility barn suitable for hay, equipment, or additional farm use. Pastures feature substantial pressure-treated round-post fencing with Black Lightning® poly-coated cable designed for horses or other livestock.
