It all started, as most do, as a dream to renovate the old barn for horses. Well the dream became a reality after a long wait, and the barn is now alive for your horse boarding needs.
A circa 1900 board clad bank barn was fully operational back in its day as a cattle operation on the old Curtis Farm at the ‘end of the line.’ Over the years ownership had changed and the barn had settled as a place for farm equipment storage and was without life.
The mental picture that never erased, at times went on hold over the years, was to see this old barn come to life as it fulfilled the dream of one day becoming a hobby horse operation.
With much work and repair and of course, equine dedication this cattle barn was stripped of all its stabling and concrete and replaced with beautiful, clean sand floors and 10 x 12 horse stalls. Not one drawing was put to paper, yet thru the mind’s eye it all came together just as it was meant to be.
We are so proud of Houfer's and ecstatic that it is our own blood, sweat and tears that went into it and our very soul is the heart of Houfer's.

If you feel so inclined, whether with interest to board or curiosity to just tour, please call ahead, we would be thrilled to show you Houfer's.
You must keep in mind though, we are still under some ‘dream construction’ and looking very forward to the 2008 additions of insulated office, complete tack area and 200’ x 120’ sand ring.
Stay tuned as we grow… We are having too much fun!
