Mountain View Arena   

Over night horses are welcome. Easy to find with easy access. New metal corrals have just gone in so the view is a little different now.

The Mountain View Arena is an indoor arena, stabling and training facilities in Deer Lodge, Montana. The arena can be seen on the right from Interstate 90 at exit # 184 if you are traveling west. If you are traveling east take the same exit # 184, turn left to go under the freeway, then take the first right. We are the second driveway on the left - next to the Valley Vet Clinic. Motels and restaurants are within view.
We have easy access and plenty of room for large horse trailers and tractor/trailers to enter and turn around. Budweiser Clydesdales have stayed here with their 3 big Tractor-trailers and with room to spare.

Boarding:

There are approximately 28 indoor stalls 12' X 12' in the stabling area. These rates are current as of August 1, 2006.
Overnight stabling: Over night or day rates are $20 per horse, you feed and water. $25 a day if we feed our hay twice a day and water. Bring your own hay and a water bucket per horse. We have hooks to hang the bucket on the stall walls. You may clean out your trailer but please ask where to dump the manure. The veterinary owns the property around us and does not like people to dump manure on his side of the fence. Our manure pile is close to the road west of the corrals you are welcome to use one of our wheelbarrows to haul it.
Monthly rates:
   We clean pens daily and feed twice a day.
  • Outside pens - $200
  • Inside stalls - $250
  • Both inside and outside for turn out - $350. No pasture available.
   A tack room is available for trainers and monthly boarders..
 
Weekly Rates:

   For people who would like to stay a while and enjoy our area we offer weekly rates for stabling. There is lots of riding in the area; either trailer up to the forest service land or ride the county roads to the hills from the barn $75 per week. Bring your own hay, or add $3 a day for feed.

 
 We are next door to a great large animal veterinarian if your horses need any veterinary care.
