Horse Retirement Farm for Your Favorite Equestrian

A small family owned farm in Virginia, with a long line of experienced horsemanship, our horses are personally cared for and loved by our family.

 We keep only a few horses at a time, so that each one of them receives personal attention! Our “moms/dads” owners are always more than happy to share comments about our farm with anyone looking to come board with us.

 We love visits anytime from our owners, and we will help accommodate with lodging and airport pickups. We have made many new friends from all over.

FIVE SPRINGS HORSE RETIREMENT FARM has taken in horses from across the country. Some of the horses we have on our property have come as far as places like:  Virginia , North Carolina , New York , New Jersey , Delaware , Pennsylvania , Connecticut , Rhode Island , New Hampshire , Florida , and Massachusetts

Five Springs Farm was established in 2006 on 132 acres.  

With a true love of horses and being in the boarding business a few years back, we decided to get into horse retirement.

We started our first boarding facility in the 1990’s which lasted until we moved and started the current horse retirement farm. 

Our facility features a 6 stall center isle barn, hot and cold wash stall, heated buckets in winter, heated and air-conditioned tack room, featuring built-in individual tack boxes, two saddle racks, and bridle rack for each border.

It also features a heated and air-conditioned feed room.

We now have a new addition with a Track style barn complete with five 12 x 12 stalls and fans, with both front and back entrances for easy access to pastures.

A 30 x12 run-in with fan. Blue stone outdoor arena.

Tons of pasture with automatic waterers, run in sheds and three-board fencing.

We also have parking for your trailer.
