Foxcreek Stable, Wauconda

At Foxcreek Stable, two indoor arenas and two outdoor rings welcome horseback riders of all stripes. The stable specializes in hunter/jumper techniques, but also offers lessons year-round for beginner riders who just want to foster a connection with a horse and learn if it prefers over-easy or scrambled eggs better.

Whether training competitors on their way to Illinois Short Circuit and Northern Illinois Hunter/Jumper Association events or youngsters during summer camps, Foxcreek’s staffers want to make sure riders have fun. They even festoon their ponies with glitter and bows before delivering them to homes for pony parties.
