Absolutely beautiful horse farm with many Oak trees and fantastic views, overlooking the country side and Nippersink Golf Course.Our farm is located just across the Illinois border, just five minutes outside the Twin Lakes Wisconsin area, between Twin Lakes, Wi. and Richmond, Illinois. We can be accessed from Rt. 12 in Illinois or Highway 50 in Wisconsin. Our farm has 45 - 12 X 12 stalls which includes a brand new 22 stall addition, a large indoor arena, 3 new outdoor arenas (1 for Jumping, 1 for flat and one for dressage) and a round pen for training. We have a wonderful mix of English, Dressage/Eventing, Hunter, Jumper and Western borders, and offer both English flat and Hunter/Jumper lessons and Western Lessons. A Dressage teacher is also available if desired. We offer lessons for Children 6 and up and for adults as well, Beginner thru Advanced. We expect to be forming adult group lessons also, when the number of interested people warrants it. We have daily turnout in our 17 new, large oak fenced grassed paddocks and cater to our clients specific requests for their horses. Our facility sports two hugh tack rooms, with numbered spaces corresponding with each individual stall. We also have a handicap accessible, large Club/Viewing room, which is cooled during the summer and heated during the winter. A microwave, and Hot Drinks are made available for your comfort. Our intent is to keep developing our farm as a place where horse people can enjoy each other as well as the facilities and where they will feel secure in the knowledge that their horses are receiving the best of care. Borders must provide proof of negative Coggins, all necessary shots, including strangles and West Niles and must agree to adhere to our posted worming program for all the horses. WE ENCOURAGE YOU to come out and inspect our Farm. IF YOU CALL OR E-MAIL AHEAD, I WILL MAKE A POINT OF BEING THERE PERSONALLY TO GIVE YOU A FULL TOUR AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. Nothing we can put in this description can properly take the place of seeing and experiencing Whispering Oaks personally.
