Boarding Available - Black River Stables currently has 2 spots open for board. (Option 1 available only, please see the bottom of the post to see what option 1 includes!) BRS is a family-owned private facility ideal for those who enjoy casual riding and trails. It is located in Garnett Settlement, 5 minutes from the Saint John Airport, 25 minutes from Hampton, 20 minutes from central Saint John and 20 Minutes from Rothesay.

BRS has 20 acres of well kept, on property trails that also connect to lots more. BRS has a large, outdoor ring with access to jumps and a couple cross country jumps. We also have a river which is great for splashing around in on summer days and after rides.

Boarders have access to a set of indoor cross ties, as well as an outdoor area for tacking up. The outdoor area includes a set of cross ties, 2 hitching posts, 2 saddle racks and 2 hooks for bridles/halters, etc. There is a large tack room/lounge available to borders with their own private tack lockers and saddle racks.

Horses are turned out 24/7 (except for bad weather) with access to hay, salt/mineral lick and water (stock tank heated in the winter). In the summer the horses are rotated between 4 grass fields, and in the winter they are fed good quality round bales. (Hay is rolled off bales inside hay barn and fed twice daily to insure horses aren’t over eating/wasting) Horses have access to a 50ft x 10ft run-in shelter for protection from the elements.

There are 2 options for board:

Option 1 currently available. Option 2 is currently full.

Option 1 includes a 9ft x 11ft indoor stall, inside of our 4 stall barn. Each stall has a grain bucket, water bucket and a salt lick holder, as well as 2 hooks outside of the stall for halters and lead ropes. Horses will be kept in their stalls during bad weather, and will be brought inside to be fed.

Option 2 has no access to an indoor stall, however they do have access to the run in shelter during bad weather. Horses will be fed outside.

Horses are fed twice daily. Blanket changes will be provided, as well as fly mask changes in the summer. Barn owner lives on property.

Option 1 - 375$/month
Option 2 - 350$/month
Grain and supplements are extra for both options. This ensures that borders aren’t paying extra for grain that their horses aren’t eating.

Please message us if you are interested. You can also email [email protected] or text (506) 639-8747. (Please be sure to only text this number, as cell phone service is hit or miss and I would not want to miss your call)
