I am considering a job in Meridian, ID and am investigating boarding facilities. I think there are several people on this board from the area, but most of the threads I can find are several years old so I would like some up-to-date information.
I am looking to spend approx. $400/month. I would prefer a stall with a run and daily turnout but pasture board (with shelter) or just a stall with daily pasture turnout also considered. Quality of care is most critical but I am not a picky owner (proper feeding with a focus on quality forage along with proper water 24/7 all year is my number one priority). Human amenities much less important to me. I travel a fair amount and don’t want to worry about my horse’s care while I am away.
I am an amateur low-level eventer and dressage enthusiast! I would love a facility that offers lessons in all three eventing phases, but if I had to pick one, I would prefer in-house jumping lessons (hunter/jumper is fine) and trailer out for monthly dressage lessons. A place with access to trails without trailering would be awesome as would a few cross country jumps!
Would like advice on whether an indoor arena is necessary for winter riding? I live in Spokane, WA and winter riding is impractical without an indoor. However, I notice a lot of boarding facilities in southwest ID don’t have one so maybe it isn’t as critical?
Thanks in advance!
