JennLake Horse Boarding

Horses at JLM are integral to the history and culture of the property.

We are a small boarding facility that seeks experienced, hands-on horse owners. The facility is primarily self-care but offers short-term full-care options upon request. Dori Hale is the overall JennLake Property Manager and is also the Barn Manager. She lives on the property and is a horse owner.

There are two main types of horse boarding: full-care and self-care. The only difference between the two is that self-care is much less expensive because you are not paying staff to take care of your horse for you. JLM horse boarding is primarily self-care. However, we do offer the option for full-board to assist when owners are out of town or experiencing a schedule that makes it infeasible for them to provide daily maintenance and feeding on their own.

Whenever there is an opening for a new horse, we generally give priority to residents, but exceptions can be made. Once a horse has been accepted and become part of the herd, that horse will NOT be “bumped” off the property just to make space for another horse even if the owner does not live at JLM.

Equine Facilities

Our equine facilities include:

Main barn with 6 stalls, small secure tack room (not climate controlled), and large covered wings for other storage
40 foot container for storing square bales
Outside wash rack with cold water only
9-acre oak fenced pasture with hot top wire and good natural shade but no dedicated shelter
13-acre wooden fenced pasture with hot top wire that does have a large pole barn with some storage and a small paddock; this pasture lacks natural shade due to the loss of our beloved huge oak tree. We have future plans to sub-divide this pasture into private paddocks with dedicated shelters
60 foot roundpen shaded in evenings with excellent footing
Small size dressage pen with letters
Some XC and standard jumps
Bridge and gate and ground poles and other items useful for practicing obstacles, ranch classes, or working equitation ease of handling
Lots of open area to ride with some good flat areas and slope areas and a few short trails in the woods
Two ponds to both ride around and for fun horsie-swimming play dates during the hottest parts of the year
Excellent dedicated horse trails nearby at Columbus Lowndes State Park
Access to private local venue that regularly hosts private clinic events with professional eventing and dressage trainers and has a covered arena and large jumping arena
Local Cowpuncher arena and the Mississippi Horse Park which both offer regular “open” riding days

Interested in Boarding your Horse at JennLake Meadows?

The current limit for boarded horses is 4 total, so that every horse has a dedicated stall available if desired or needed. It is possible that we might “flex” to allow a few additional pasture-only horses depending on circumstances, but ideally there is a 1:1 ratio of horse and stall always available.

Self-care Boarding is $150 per month, per horse. This includes a dedicated stall, use of a pasture with fresh water and salt provided, and space to store tack and feed. You can find a current copy of our Rules HERE.
