Golden years, golden care.
At Stick & Feather Stables, we are passionate about creating a sanctuary where retired horses can thrive. Our mission is to provide a loving, safe, and enriching environment that prioritizes the physical and emotional well-being of every horse in our care.
​
Whether your horse has been a loyal companion, a competitive athlete, or both, we believe they deserve a serene and fulfilling retirement.
​
For more information or to schedule a visit, please contact us! We look forward to welcoming you and your beloved horse to our family!
We are a small farm so each retiree is truly a part of the family! Riding is not permitted on the property, but visiting and spending time with your horse is available. Our horses live in lovely pastures with trees for shade and a sturdy run-in shed to keep the weather out. ​All our horses live outside, allowing your horse to safely get their energy out and going to pasture with the other horses provides much-needed social time. Keeping horses outside as much as possible also helps their hoof and leg health since it allows them to stretch their leg muscles and keep the blood flowing!
However, in emergencies or inclement weather, we do have stalls available.

Our pastures are designed to provide your horse with an environment that resembles their natural habitat to maintain optimal health, as seen in the lifestyles of free-roaming horses living naturally.
