Come make memories with family and friends that will last a lifetime.
When David and Brandy Von Holten bought the ranch on December 20, 2013 they literally had to use a chainsaw to get fully onto the property. The farm had not been lived on since 1979. You know how it is easier to give birth than to raise the dead, well they have a new respect for this old saying. Everything was built by David and Brandy. They even bought a sawmill to be able to cut down on limber expenses. There were 8 buildings somewhat up in 2013 from the original homestead. Five of the eight building were taken down and used to create the wedding and event venue. It is heated and air conditioned, has private bride and groom rooms, and has three wheel chair accessible restrooms. The trail riding facility now has a 125X200 covered arena, 4 cabins, 94 covered stalls, 14 uncovered pens, 40 RV sites, and a 12 stall boarding barn. Come enjoy this premiere Midwest Equine Trail Riding Facility with all its wonders.
