Can anyone give me a good feel on the horse boarding/eventing scene in the Charlotte area? Would be looking at living closer to Indian Land, Fort Mill / Weddington area and would love to find a nice, quiet, drama-free adult amateur barn. Ample turn-out is a must, as well as lights to ride after work in the winter. I would prefer to not be at a “riding academy” of sorts, but can make it work if needed. A friend recommended Kingfisher Park which looks ideal, just a bit too far North. Any advice would be amazing!
Join the FB group Charlotte Area Equestrians & Charlotte Metro Equestrians. I’m just north of Charlotte in Concord and boarded at Cypress Hill but that would be way too far from the SC/NC border where you’re looking at. There’s 3D Horsemanship in Waxhaw, Braedside Farm in Fort Mill, and Deanna Corby Dressage in Waxhaw. I don’t know anything about those places personally, but they may be a good place to start.
Kingfisher is definitely too far, but it’s an amazing facility, so you’ll have to go at least school there sometime. For $40 you can use their dressage arena, jump area, XC course, trails and galloping lane!
