Lifestyle and Special Interests
Equestrian Programs
There is an abundance of equestrian resources for riders from novice to expert with interests ranging from hunter jumper and dressage to therapeutic and casual trail riding with everything in-between.
The rolling hills of the river valleys provide for picturesque trails in every season. Barns, pastures, indoor and outdoor riding rings dot the landscape. Owners and trainers and a ready social-group are waiting for you and your horse.
If you don't have your own horse, there are plenty of opportunities to ride the barns' horses or lease one with a rider or two. We know that finding the right place for your equestrian interests is just another piece in the puzzle of where to live. We have many connections and would be pleased to introduce you to them to assist you in the process.
