About Cimarron Ranch Boarding and Training

Cimarron Ranch Boarding and Training operates out of Stillwater, Minnesota, a city known for its scenic St. Croix River valley and strong equestrian community in the surrounding Washington County area. This facility combines horse boarding with hands-on pet training, making it a practical choice for horse owners who want more than just a stall. The ranch setting gives horses plenty of space and a natural environment. If you're looking for a boarding option with training services built in, Cimarron Ranch covers both under one roof.

Services & Process

Horse boarding at Cimarron Ranch includes daily care routines like feeding, turnout, and stall maintenance to keep horses healthy and comfortable. Training services go beyond basic obedience, addressing ground manners, desensitization, and riding readiness depending on what each horse needs. The ranch environment means horses have access to pasture time and natural terrain, which supports physical and mental well-being. Owners can stay involved in the training process or trust the staff to work with their horse directly.

Service Area

Cimarron Ranch primarily serves horse owners in Stillwater and the surrounding Washington County communities, including Woodbury, Oakdale, and Lake Elmo. Riders from the greater Twin Cities metro area also make the trip out for the ranch's training programs. The facility is accessible from both the Minnesota and Wisconsin sides of the St. Croix River.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does full board include at Cimarron Ranch?
Full board typically covers daily feeding, fresh water, stall cleaning, and regular turnout time in the pasture. Some facilities also include basic health monitoring, so staff will alert you if your horse shows signs of illness or injury.
Can I visit my horse whenever I want?
Most boarding facilities in the Stillwater area allow owner visits during daylight hours, though some have specific visiting windows to keep the routine consistent for the horses. It's worth confirming the policy when you tour the ranch.
What kind of training methods do they use?
Cimarron Ranch focuses on positive, relationship-based training that builds trust between horse and handler. This often includes groundwork, desensitization to new stimuli, and consistent handling routines rather than force-based correction.
Do I need to supply my own feed and hay?
Many boarding facilities provide standard hay and grain as part of the board fee, but specialty feeds or supplements are usually the owner's responsibility. Bring a list of your horse's current diet when you inquire so the staff can confirm what they can accommodate.
Is this facility suitable for green or difficult horses?
Because Cimarron Ranch offers active training alongside boarding, it's a good fit for horses that need extra work or haven't been handled consistently. The staff can assess your horse's specific challenges and tailor a training approach accordingly.
How far in advance do I need to book a boarding spot?
Availability varies by season, and spots can fill quickly in spring when many owners are transitioning horses out of winter arrangements. Reaching out at least a few weeks ahead gives you the best chance of securing the right stall or pasture option.
