Ithaca Stables was established in 1986 and is located on 65 acres in Pointe Fortune, Qc. We are 15 minutes from Hudson, 30 minutes from the West Island of Montreal, and 15 minutes from Hawkesbury Ont. We are a full boarding facility with individual feeding programs and ample turnout paddocks and fields. Outdoor boarding is also available on large pastures. Our facility includes 2 barns (30 stalls) a large outdoor ring and a large indoor arena which has a fully equipped heated viewing area. A hunter and a jumper course are placed on a 6 acre enclosed field.
At Ithaca Stables, we instruct riders in Hunter/Jumper, Dressage and Eventing. We offer group, semi-private or private lessons. Group lessons are not large. We believe in giving our riders a maximum amount of instruction. Theory classes are held throughout the winter months. Horse training and exercise programs are also available. We are also active participants in the regional show circuit.
Two 5-day summer camps are available for children 8 years and up. One camp is held in July, the other in August. Camps can be either day or sleepover. The number of children taken is limited to ensure that they receive lots of attention. The campers ride 3 hours a day improving their riding immensely over the 5 day period. They also learn about the care of horses and enjoy games on horseback.
Ithaca Stables is known for its friendly atmosphere to riders of all ages and levels, competitive and recreational. Every year we have a family fun day, which is games on horseback for the whole family, non riders are assisted. There is also our annual BBQ and Christmas Party. We host a schooling show yearly which is mainly geared to beginners of all ages. With the help of some great sponsors we not only hand out ribbons but many great prizes.
