Full-care boarding and private riding lessons on the Stables of Bay Horse Inn — a quiet, well-kept facility run by a family that loves these horses as much as you do.
The Stables is the sister property of Bay Horse Inn — Indiana's premier wedding & event venue. Tucked into the trees off State Road 135, our barn offers full-care boarding, beginner and intermediate riding lessons, and a calm, well-managed environment for horses and their people. Whether you're stepping into the saddle for the first time or looking for a place to bring your own horse home, you'll find honest care here.
A full indoor riding arena, well-kept stalls, and fenced pastures on quiet country grounds — the kind of facility you'd want your horse to come home to, whether you're across town or across the country.
Transparent rates with no surprises. Every horse on our property is treated like one of our own.
Everything your horse needs, handled daily by our team — so you can simply come and ride.
Ideal for young or first-time riders. A focused half-hour to build confidence in the saddle.
A full hour for riders ready to develop seat, balance, and a real partnership with the horse.
Most of our new students have never sat on a horse before. We start slow — leading, brushing, learning what each horse needs — and build from there. Parents are welcome to watch, and we take safety as seriously as we take the fun.
"The barn smells like cedar and the kids leave grinning every time."
