Facilities
The Dream Arena
The Dream Arena is 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 heated tackroom and bathroom.
Main Barn- Stabling Area and Little 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.
New Addition
The New Addition houses ten box stalls with rubber mats and drop-down doors. It has it's own heated tackroom and 2 sets of crossties.
The Mare Barn
The Mare Barn contains 12 spacious rubber-matted box stalls.
Outdoor Rings
Ring #1 has sand footing and is 156' by 312'.
Ring #2 is grass (156’ x 312’) and often holds a dressage arena or gaming lanes. We use Ring #2 when we play polocrosse.
Ring #3 is a grass show jumping ring (200' x 260'). We have 2 full sets of show jumps.
The Sami Curtis Ring is a grass show ring located at South Side (the opposite side of our quiet country road). Built for the first "Help Sami Kick Cancer" event in 2015, it has since been named in memory of Sami Curtis, a local horse loving teenager. For more information on Sami's legacy please visit Help Sami Kick Cancer.
Laneway to Outdoor Rings and Paddocks
We have 2 major laneways which makes getting to the rings and paddocks very easy and mud-free! They are plowed when it snows and a sand/salt mixture is spread if it's icy.
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 The Grey Barns. We add and expand the course and jump selection yearly.
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. There is always plenty of riding to be done around the edge of the fields. In the winter, we try to maintain a groomed track for sleighing and riding.
The Grey Barns
The Grey Barns are located at 136 Post Road. There are multiple paddocks with run in sheds, and the horses help to mow the cross country course.
Fly control:
During the summer months, HDA uses all natural “Fly Predators” along with a flock of free range hens to virtually eliminate house/stable/face flies on the farm. This drastically reduces the amount of fly spray needed. It also saves wear and tear on the horses feet and legs.
