Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Stillwater a good location for a boarding facility?
Stillwater sits in the St. Croix River valley, which means naturally varied terrain with wooded areas and open land that horses and riders both enjoy. The area is less densely developed than many metro-adjacent locations, giving horses more space and a quieter environment.
Can I visit my boarded horse whenever I want?
Most boarding facilities allow owner visits during daylight hours, though some have specific access policies for early mornings or evenings. It's worth confirming visit hours and any access procedures when you tour the farm.
What's the difference between full board and partial board?
Full board covers all daily care including feeding, stall cleaning, and turnout. Partial or pasture board typically costs less but may require the owner to handle some feeding or care responsibilities.
Are trail rides available near Summer Haven Farm in Stillwater?
Stillwater and the surrounding area have access to trail systems along the St. Croix River corridor that are popular with riders. Confirming whether the facility offers guided trail rides or simply access to on-property riding is a good first question to ask.
What vaccinations and health requirements does my horse need before boarding?
Most boarding facilities require proof of current vaccinations including rabies, West Nile, and flu/rhino, as well as a negative Coggins test. Requirements vary, so ask the farm for their specific health documentation checklist.
Is Summer Haven Farm suitable for both experienced and novice riders?
Facilities offering horseback riding services typically accommodate a range of experience levels. If you're new to riding, let the staff know so they can pair you with a calm, beginner-friendly horse.
