Facilities at 169 Post Road
Dream Arena
The Dream Arena is our new 72' by 172' indoor with sand footing. It has 5 attached box stalls with drop down doors and Nelson automatic waterers. The Dream Arena has its own tackroom and bathroom.
Stabling Area and Small Indoor
  
Our main barn houses a large heated tackroom, bathroom, two classrooms, and a stabling area.
The stabling area offers six cross-tie stations and five rubber-matted stalls. It is conveniently located between the tackroom and small indoor riding arena, making it a great and safe place for grooming, tacking, lesson prep, and unmounted instructional learning.
We have a refrigerator for boarder/student use, along with a snack machine.
During the summer months HDA uses all natural “Fly Predators” to virtually eliminate house/stable/face flies on
the farm. This drastically reduces the amount of fly spray needed, and saves wear and tear on the horses feet
and legs.
New Addition
The New Addition is under construction (six box stalls completed) and will house ten box stalls with automatic
waterers and tack room.
The East Wing
The East Wing contains 10 spacious rubber-matted box stalls.
The East Wing Extension
Attached to the East Wing the Extension currently holds two oversized box stalls.
Outdoor Rings
Ring #1 has sand footing and is 156' by 312'.
Ring #2 is grass (156’ x 312’) and usually holds a dressage arena and gaming lanes.
Ring #3 is a grass show jumping ring (200' x 260'). We have 2 full sets of show jumps.
Ring #4 is a warm-up ring (130' x 260').
Ring #5 is a great place for beginner riders who are ready to work “in a field”.
Laneway to Outdoor Rings and Paddocks
We have a $16,000 laneway which runs parallel to Post Road and makes getting to the rings and front paddocks very easy and mud-free!
Cross-Country Courses
We have two cross country courses with jumps ranging from 18 inches to 3’ (including a bank complex and ditch). The first course is adjacent to the Sugar Bush, while the other course is located at 136 Post Road. We add and expand the course and jump selection yearly, and this year will be building training-level obstacles.
Sugar Bush
The Sugar Bush is located adjacent to our parking lot. It has some trail obstacles and jumps along its paths. It proves to be a great first "trail" or cross-country experience for our younger riders and is a nice place for students to cool out their horses/ponies after lessons. Every year our students enjoy hunting Easter Eggs in the Sugar Bush.
Trails and Fields
We have some nice trails along the creek, and through the woods. In 2010 we would like to improve the current water crossing and create some new trails. There is always plenty of riding to be done around the fields. In the winter we try to maintain a groomed track for sleighing and riding on.
