A place to enjoy yourself      

Established in 2013 to provide a pleasant and welcoming place where people can enjoy time with horses. The Ithaca Equestrian Center provides a beautiful setting for horse and rider. On 73 acres of gently terraced land, the land's slight slope helps horses build strength and improves conditioning. It is a perfect country setting conveniently located on Route 96 North-West of Ithaca. It is just minutes from downtown, Ithaca College, Cornell’s main campus, and Cornell’s Equine hospital.

Intensive thought and attention to detail has been given to the design and construction of the Center so that it can be as safe and pleasant to be in as possible. We know you will love the amenities and the atmosphere.

And your horse will love the attentive, knowledgeable care here. Each animal in our care is considered a part of the family and is tended to as such.

Life is hard. You deserve a place to leave it all behind, enjoy yourself, and bond with a horse.
And your horse deserves experienced, attentive care.

"The barns, outdoor ring and grounds of the Ithaca Equestrian Center are well designed and maintained. The setting is unbelievably beautiful and the 70 plus acres of field and trails are a delight for me and my horses. I feel very fortunate to have Paula as a teacher and trainer for my two mares. She has guided me in a clear and fun way towards being a better rider and this has allowed me to have more fun, feel more safe and most importantly feel more deeply connected to my mares."
