Looking for barn near Jacksonville Fl

[eclipse]

I have a barn mate that’s relocating from Calgary to the Jacksonville, St Augustine Florida area next month. She currently leases and will be looking to buy once settled! Can anyone in the area recommend barns for her … she’s an adult amateur, like to take a few lessons per week, currently showing in the 3ft and 3ft3 jumpers! Has shown at TBird and Spruce and is looking for amateur friendly, and a barn that shows but one where it’s not mandatory to show if you don’t want to! Also we aren’t used to having a groom so that’s also not necessary

Thanks everyone

I would look at HaddenLoch with Claire Lee. She has a great group of adult amateurs. But Jacksonville\st Augustine is a huge area so if drive time is important, a smaller area to focus on would be helpful.

I don’t think they know exactly where they will be living yet but hopefully she will sign up and can give a bit more information

Claire Lee at Haddenloch (nearer to Ponte Vedra / Nocatee), Nashea Powell at Coriander (more near Jacksonville proper), or Michelle Moen at M&M further south in St. Augustine. Unfortunately, it’s not a big horse scene in JAX but Ocala is a few hours south.

I am no longer in that area of North Florida, but I can second the HaddenLoch recommendation.

Just talked to her and she has a job interview at a vet clinic in that area so she will definitely check them out! Looks like that’s kind of the area that will be good for her

M&M was actually one of the barns that she found and talked too so that’s good to hear someone recommend them
