horse leases

Leasers and boarders may visit and ride their horses when we're open. We look forward to seeing you when you visit, but remember we must practice certain accomodations and adhere to WA State "Safe Start" guidelines. We look forward to seeing you at Horse Camp, or in riding lessons this summer. Sign up now for camp at camphorsecountry.com! Call (360) 691-7509 for a gift certificate to lease a horse, reserve a riding lesson or trail ride or pony ride and save those carrots for your horsy friends. Remember if you don't use all your horsy hours in a given month, you can save them and ride later when it fits into your schedule. All horsy hours must be used by the end of your lease term.
