Horse Lease

LEASING

Our horses are at Thunder Ridge Trails Ranch in the summers and then return to Hawkstone Stables for the winter. They are up for 1/2 lease from November to April: lessee can ride their assigned horse up to 3 days per week, and also receives a discount for lessons. Western tack is included. Lessons are required until the lessee is ready to safely tack and ride the horse independently. Most of the horses are great for beginners and quiet riding. Reasonable flat monthly rates (no extra costs for horse care) that are less than boarding or owning a horse.

Blue

19 years old
Percheron/QH gelding
16.1 HH

Blue is a retired ranch horse. He neck-reins like a dream. Very dependable, not spooky. He is good for walk, trot, but not loping. Great for someone looking for quiet, safe rides. $220/month

Frosty

17 years old
Arabian gelding
14.3 HH

Frosty is very sweet and friendly, he likes to nicker quietly to people. He loves children and is good for adults too. 100% sound. Dependable boy that's a simple ride, likes to walk and occasional trot. $220/month

Autumn

18 years old
Fjord Mare
15 HH

Autumn is a barrel of fun for intermediate or experienced riders looking for something dependable and safe to enjoy. W/T/L, rides English or Western. $250/month

Jeff

12 years old
Percheron gelding
15.2 HH

Everybody loves Jeff! He is such a good boy. He's broke to ride and drive. Great for walk/trot but takes a lot of effort to get into a lope. $250/month

Kimber

16 year old
QH mare
14.2 HH

Kimber is a very sweet, gentle soul. Broke to ride and drive. She may have the shortest legs, but has a fast walk and likes to move out. Needs an experienced rider as she's light for cues. $240/month

Jill

15 years old
Percheron mare
16.2 HH

Jill is a quiet, gentle giant who likes walking. Broke to ride and drive. Super safe on the trails. Will consider discount if leased with her best friend Judy for a mother/daughter, husband/wife, or any other pair who would like to go on quiet rides together. $220/month

Judy

24+ years old
Percheron cross mare
15 HH

Judy is super quiet and sweet. Retired from driving. She is older, so quiet, peaceful rides is what she's all about. Will discount if leased with her best friend Jill. $220/month

Mariah

24 years old
Few-spot Appaloosa cross mare
15 HH

Mariah is gaited and smooth. Very brave, no spook and is a nice balance of whoa and go. Not the best ground manners that requires someone with confidence and consistancy when on the ground. Pics don't do her justice, she is very striking with blue eyes, and you'd never guess her age to look at her. $220/month

Tucker

19 years old
Registered Quarter Horse gelding
14.2 HH

Anybody can ride Tucker with his easy smooth rocking-horse lope. Has some reining training. Great on the trail or in an arena. Excellent all-around horse for child or small adult. $250
