Location
20 miles north of Aiken, South Carolina. We are thrilled to have discovered
Johnston, SC. It is a lovely area with amazing weather, friendly people,
and plenty of equine activity. We are one mile down a dirt road at the
junction of route 193 & route 121: accessible, but private. Your
horse will love it here!
Facility
We designed our new barn to catch the summer breezes: large matted stalls,
grilled partitions on all sides with large grilled windows in the back
of the stalls. Each stall has a fan and automatic fly spray system.
The roof is insulated and we chose the most reflective color available.
Our new 10 stall barn will be completed January '08.
Riding areas
We have a large jumping field, a dressage schooling area, a 66' round
pen and a few trails through the woods. We will be adding cross country
jumps to the trails and enclosing the dressage area.
43 acres of pasture
The property is fenced and cross fenced with horse guard fencing into
large pastures suitable for full time use for 1-3 horses each. All pastures
have shade; either large trees or 10’ X 20’ run-in sheds.
Pastures are well maintained and picked up regularly.
