**UPDATED 07/24/10**

HIGH COUNTRY STABLES STIMULUS PACKAGE FOR 2010!

High Country Stables is offering our version of a stimulus package on all stalls w/runs and box stalls in our main barn!  We are drastically dropping our prices on our stalls because there are too many GREAT boarders out there with nice horses who cannot afford the high prices of stall boarding these days, and we feel that EVERYONE should be able to have the opportunity to board in a great place with fantastic friendly boarders and receive awesome attentive care for their horses with great quality hay!  There is no guarantee on how long we will be offering this stimulus package, so get in on these GREAT RATES while you can!!  We will NOT change your move-in rate unless we have an across-the-board increase in board, which we have NOT had in 2 years! 

Stall w/run, south aisle, main barn:  Normally $395.00 - NOW $365.00!!!!

Lg. Stall w/run, north, aisle main barn: Normally $425.00 - NOW $395.00!!!

The weather is BEAUTIFUL, and everyone has been enjoying riding outside again!  Summer is a great time to move in because our out-of-town students take their horses home for the summer while other students have graduated and will move on, meaning this is the time we have new openings!  This is also a fantastic time for new students to make reservations for the fall to ensure they will have a spot when they arrive in August!  We currently have 1 opening in our large stalls with large runs on the north side of the barn, which have sliding doors on them.   We currently have 2 openings in our private paddocks, and we have several openings in our shared paddocks.  We do have some availability in our regular stalls w/runs and box stalls, so reserve yours now while we still have openings. Make sure you get settled in before things start getting busier toward the end of summer and take advantage of our special introductory summer rates!  This way you can be settled in before next winter,  so you can take advantage of our indoor heated arena, attentive care for your horse, high-quality hay, and great atmosphere! Month-to-month boarding agreements, no long-term contracts unless you opt for our prepaid 3- or 6-month prepaid discount!  If you are looking for a great place for your horse and a relaxed fun atmosphere for you, check us out!! We have GREAT boarders! NO barn drama, no snobby boarders, just a great place where you can relax and enjoy your horse without having to spend a lot of money on gas driving back and forth to the barn! We have quite a few CSU students who even bike to the barn! Spend your time with your horse, not on the busy road burning gas and be able to ride all year round with a great bunch of boarders!!  We have a fantastic group of women boarders who ride together both on and off the property and get together for lunch, dinner, etc.  Our CSU students are great!  We have a great relaxed and friendly atmosphere that is very welcoming to families with children as well.  LIMITED trailer parking is available as a courtesy to our boarders.
