At Honey Brook Stables, we emphasize giving our horses plenty of turnout in large fields that are not overgrazed.
Our stalls are large and roomy, and kept clean and dry with pine shavings. We advise safe feeding practices, with a basis in lots of forage, and work with our owners to be sure that each horse has his individual needs met.

At Honey Brook Stables, we specialize in starting young horses the right way and working through behavior issues with “problem horses.”
The Honey Brook Stables training program is unique because we offer several training packages, to fit the needs of you and your horse. Packages include bonuses such as creating a weekly update video of your horse so you can watch their progress and follow along with training, as well as a weekly lesson so you and your horse can work together and continue to progress.
During your Private Intensive, you will be working with our local instructor, Kaitlyn McGarvey, and our stellar group of school horses, with each horse carefully chosen to help solve a specific problem you’ve been having or teach the skill you need for the next level of riding.
Kaitlyn McGarvey is our local instructor and loves to create partnership between horse and rider, whether that is working with a person and their own horse or with their school horse in each lesson. Kailtyn offers private and group lessons each week.

She has worked in many disciplines from eventing to liberty performance and has a unique gift in solving relationship problems between horse and rider.
Kaitlyn's friendly, thoughtful, and kind approach to riders and horses alike make her lessons enjoyable and effective. She has the lovely ability to bring together the rider's goals and aspirations, the horse's ability and readiness, and identifying how to help them move towards their goals and dreams.
Kaitlyn helps riders of all levels and ability, whether they are just starting out and looking for correct basics, preparing for competition, or looking to rebuild balance and confidence.

Grey Molly has been a character since she came into our lives as a yearling. She is known for always finding the dirtiest spots to roll, and showing off that dirt on her grey coat.
Grey Molly is a favorite of students for learning canter and is a big solid TB/ Percheron cross who carries all riders.
Ellie was a homebred surprise of Callie’s Uncle. He bought Ellie’s dam at an auction and a few months later – surprise! Ellie arrived.
Ellie learned to carry a rider, pull a cart, and jump courses before coming to Honey Brook Stables to join our lesson program. She has a wonderful temperament and has been compared to riding a couch!
Ace is a special guy. He has been part of our family for 20 years. Ace is a Kentucky Mountain Horse, a gaited breed, although he trots, gaits, paces, canters, and jumps with lesson students.
He may have the smoothest canter in the barn and is a little guy, so carries our small adults and child riders.
Henry was a star in the fox hunting fields before becoming one of our school horses.
He is a Thoroughbred off the track who excelled despite numerous physical limitations throughout his life. Now, at 21, he mostly does walk/trot lessons.
Catfish came to us after many years as a camp horse. Catfish is a solid little Quarter Horse who walks, trots, canters, jumps crossrails, and trail rides. He is level headed but likes to go!
He loves to connect and just hang out in the field too.
Sergeant helps our students with practicing bending, lateral work, and the ability to keep a horse a frame.
He loves riders who don’t mind going slow and giving him time to get comfortable, but will try very hard to do whatever he is asked.
Bella is a stocky mare who works hard, and is steady and kind.
She challenges her rider to help her keep a steady frame and really teaches her riders to feel the subtle difference that good balance and self carriage make in movement!
Rocky may be the smallest of our group, but he has one of the biggest personalities.
Always on the move and aware of everything, Rocky teaches our child riders to stay focused and patient in the saddle, and is a favorite of adult students for groundwork and liberty lessons.
Ruger is one of our most talented jumpers, as well as a beautiful mover.
A flashy red roan, he is always a favorite and works hard no matter what he is asked.
Rumba used to be a cow pony before joining the herd here.
She is quiet with easy, smooth gaits and loves a nap in the center of the arena.
