About Double C Ranch

Double C Ranch is based in Charlottesville, Virginia, a city that blends its university-town identity with a deep connection to the surrounding rural landscape of Albemarle County. The ranch offers both horseback riding and horse boarding, making it useful for a wider range of customers than a single-service operation. Charlottesville sits at the edge of the Blue Ridge, and the terrain in this part of Virginia is well suited to both recreational riding and year-round horse care. You can reach Double C Ranch at (855) 520-6290 to ask about current availability for either service.

Services & Process

On the riding side, Double C Ranch likely offers guided trail experiences and possibly lessons for riders at different stages. For horse owners, the boarding service is the real differentiator. Full-service boarding typically includes daily feeding, stall cleaning, turnout time, and access to riding areas. Partial or pasture boarding options may also be available at lower price points for owners who are comfortable managing some of their horse's care themselves. It's worth asking directly about what each boarding tier includes.

Service Area

Double C Ranch serves the greater Charlottesville area, including Albemarle County and surrounding communities like Waynesboro, Staunton, and Crozet. Horse owners from the Shenandoah Valley sometimes board here for the facility's convenience to Route 64. The ranch is accessible enough to draw riders from the broader Central Virginia region.
