Horse Boarding
Stall Boarding
Our primary service here at MMS is our full-service stall boarding. We accept all breeds and ages of geldings and mares, NO stallions. Our board rate includes:
feed 2x daily
hay (both in a manger in the stall year round and in feeders in the field through the cold weather months)
daily stall cleaning and shavings
daily turnout
blanketing during winter months (you must provide your own blanket)
application/removal of fly masks (you must provide your own fly mask)
*Proof of current negative Coggins required before a new horse can enter the facility
Our facilities feature a modern cinderblock barn with eighteen 12x12 stalls (photo shown is one of these stalls) and one 12x20 oversized nursery stall, a locked tack room, grooming area with wash bay, large outdoor riding ring, and permanent large round pen for ground work. Both of our large turnout pastures have a run-in shed for shelter. See gallery below for more images of our facilities.
We do not offer pasture board or self-care options.
RATES:
We require a $250 refundable security deposit upon entry to the barn. Should you ever sell your horse, move, etc., you will get all of this deposit refunded to you (provided it hasn’t been used to cover any unpaid fees/bills) within 7-10 business days of leaving the facility.
Monthly board rate is currently $400 per month per horse. Should you come in part way through the month, we will pro-rate the board charge for the remaining days in the month. Board is due on the 1st of every month, even if you come in on a partial month initially.
Respite Board
Here at Misty Mountain Stables, we also offer overnight respite board for those transporting horses through our area. We have a small pasture dedicated for this purpose, and enough room to accommodate most standard sized horse or stock trailers should you wish to drop your trailer for the night. We have several hotels within a 10 minute drive of our location. Horses are provided with water and pasture to graze, any feed or hay is the responsibility of transporting party.
Photo is of respite pasture. The field is large enough to allow ample room for horses to run and stretch their legs after long hours in a trailer but small enough to allow for fairly easy catching of flighty horses. Entire field enclosed with sturdy 4-rail wood fencing.
Rates:
Overnight respite board is $25 per night per horse. We do accept PayPal for easy payment when you’re on the go!

Our hay loft has drops directly down to the mangers in every stall. We feed locally sourced mixed grass hay.

Our spacious round pen is ideal for ground sessions at liberty or light riding.

Our oversized 12x20 nursery stall. Currently occupied by Misty to give her more space to help with her arthritis, this stall can be rented (provided we have availability) for a slightly higher rate than our regular stalls.

Should it snow so much we can't get the tractor to our round bale feeders, we carry square bales for the horses before turnout.
