About Us
Welcome!
The Whole Horse Place is a unique horse experience for the average person with little or no horse exposure. We offer many affordable program options for individuals or groups. Our approach to teaching horsemanship begins and ends with safety first. Teaching you to be in control of your horse at all times is our primary concern, and from that foundation all other aspects of horsemanship will be successful.
We are located on the beautiful Kitsap Peninsula with miles and miles of scenic trails, wildlife, beaver ponds, and breathtaking mountain views. Experience serenity and enjoy.

Our Mission
Our mission is to enrich lives with our horses. We teach all aspects of horsemanship, "From Hooves to Ears", and give you the time to establish relationships with these most excellent creatures. We are NOT just a riding facility! They say there is nothing better for the inside of a person than the outside of a horse, and we believe it.

This is a working experience at a barn, the real deal. Hands on horsemanship every day. Includes horsemanship class, riding, lessons, education, and lots of chores. This is horse ownership in every aspect. Take care of, enjoy, and appreciate everything your horse needs the days you are here. A typical day might start with grooming, personal time with horse, chores, tacking up and riding, education pertaining to your needs and the needs of your horse, and taking care of anything that needs doing. You will receive a checklist with your horse's needs and your responsibilities, you will be supervised and instructed on how to do that checklist, and what you do, when you do it, is up to you. No one rides alone, and you are supervised at all times, and you enjoy your horse how you want to.
Monday-Saturday (mix and match dates. They do NOT have to be on the same week.) Please CALL for dates you would like to reserve! *All reserved dates are expected to be paid the first day of participation regardless if attended or not.
