About Hickory Ridge Ranch

Hickory Ridge Ranch is a horse boarding facility in Rincon, Georgia, a fast-growing community in Effingham County that sits just north of Savannah. As Rincon continues to expand, quality horse boarding options nearby have become more important for horse owners who want to stay close to home without sacrificing their animal's care. Hickory Ridge Ranch fills that role, providing a dedicated boarding environment in a still-rural part of the county that hasn't been completely swallowed by suburban development.

Horse Boarding

Services & Process

Horse boarding at Hickory Ridge Ranch means your horse has a safe, managed place to live with daily care handled by experienced staff. This typically includes feeding on a consistent schedule, stall or pasture options depending on your horse's needs, and routine maintenance like mucking and fresh bedding. Horses also get regular turnout time, which is critical for their physical and mental health. Owners can generally visit during facility hours to spend time with their horses, and some ranches coordinate farrier and vet visits on-site for convenience.

Service Area

Hickory Ridge Ranch is located in Rincon, GA, and serves horse owners throughout Effingham County, including Springfield, Guyton, and Clyo. It's also a realistic option for Savannah horse owners who want their horses kept in a quieter, more rural environment just 20 to 25 miles north of the city.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between stall board and pasture board?
Stall board keeps your horse inside a barn stall at night with turnout during the day, offering more shelter and closer monitoring. Pasture board means the horse lives outside full-time in a fenced field, which is often less expensive and suits horses that do well in open environments.
What health documents does my horse need before boarding?
Most Georgia boarding facilities require a current negative Coggins test, which screens for Equine Infectious Anemia, along with proof of core vaccinations like Eastern and Western encephalomyelitis, tetanus, and West Nile. Having these ready before your first visit speeds up the intake process.
Can I bring my own feed and supplements?
Many boarding facilities accommodate owner-supplied feed and supplements, especially for horses with specific dietary needs. You'll want to confirm this upfront and label everything clearly so staff know exactly what to give and when.
How often will my horse be checked on each day?
At a standard full-care facility, horses are checked at minimum twice daily during feeding rounds, morning and evening. Some facilities do additional check-ins throughout the day, particularly for horses with health concerns or those that are new to the property.
What happens if my horse needs emergency veterinary care?
Most boarding facilities have a veterinarian they work with regularly and will contact your vet, or an emergency vet if needed, on your behalf. It's important to leave clear contact information and authorization instructions when you board, so the facility can act quickly if something comes up.
Is Rincon a good location for boarding if I live in Savannah?
Rincon is about 20 to 25 miles from downtown Savannah, making it a reasonable drive for daily or weekly visits. The area still has the rural character that horses thrive in, which is harder to find as you get closer to Savannah's more developed corridors.
