We offer riding AND non-riding sessions for all ages and levels of experience (though we specialize in beginners of ALL ages). We can also create a special “horsey experience” tailored to you and your needs. We welcome visitors with special needs. All sessions are by appointment only.

We DO NOT offer trail rides.

Our private farm is located at 7 Anthony Lane, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

Be our guest as we introduce you to the horses at our small, private stable located 7 miles from downtown Saratoga Springs. We work hard to make sure our facility is clean, safe, and quiet. Spend some time learning a little “horsey language” and slowing down your day for a bit. We offer both riding and non-riding horse experiences as well as traditional riding lessons. We call our Horsey Hostess sessions “Social Hours” because working with horses is all about developing relationships, mutual respect, and clear communication!

A note from Casey Walter, The Horsey Hostess: “Horses constantly communicate through body language, both obvious (to us) and subtle. Current research confirms that they even have social rules or etiquette around greetings, moving as a herd, and levels of friendship or closeness. As The Horsey Hostess, I will help to “translate” what my horses may have to say and give you the tools to clearly convey your own thoughts. Whether riding or not it is mutual understanding that makes a great horse-human partnership.”

“When I moved to Saratoga Springs in 2016, I returned to horseback riding after a 20 year hiatus. I found myself lingering with the horses long after my lesson had ended and noticed the sense of well-being and balance that the horses helped me to find. I also noticed that when I spoke about riding with people, they would often say, “Oh! I love being around horses!” or, “I used to ride, I wish I could do it again”. I began to study equine assisted therapy programs, equine behavior, and traditional riding programs but I wondered how I could share with people the beauty of and value in spending time with horses without the need to either be “in therapy” or at a “riding stable”. So, I created The Horsey Hostess!”

“The social lives of horses are remarkably similar to our own; when horses and humans are allowed time to properly mingle, memorable moments transpire. Horses’ non-judgmental, naturally mindful, and often loving presence can lead you to a deeper understanding of yourself and others. My greatest hope as “Hostess” is that during your session you will make meaningful connections and enjoy yourself!”
