ABOUT US
C - Arrow Stables was founded in 1989 by the Cole family. We wanted to offer everyone the chance to experience what we had growing up in the horse world. As a kid, my parents ran several successful businesses training and selling horses. In later years, my father worked in the movies, training actors (and their horses) . As a family, we toured the rodeo circuit, trained horses for celebr
ities, and won awards for our paint and quarter horses. As I got older, I realized awards weren't the path to real happiness. We settled down in Maize, and quickly got to work becoming one of the top stables in the area. We offer the full experience here. From boarding and riding lessons, to the petting zoo and outfitting. If you have an interest in the rural lifestyle, C-Arrow is a great place to get your hands dirty! We have a well trained staff, mostly of "kids" from previous camps and lessons. We really do consider them extensions of the family! We still keep in contact with many of them, and sometimes they even show up for an impromptu bonfire! My kids were raised in the horse community too, and have been involved in the rodeo circuit, and have grown into great horseman in their own right! My son, Keaton, is still very involved in the every day activities here, from riding and training, to general upkeep. FOR THE KIDS
In today's day and age, most kids have very little access to the outdoors, let alone the opportunities to be around an operating ranch. We offer a number of activities to get your kids out of the house, and to also help them learn valuable life lessons! The petting zoo is always a favorite with the kids as well. Our most popular kids activities are our spring break and summer camps. Spots are limited on these camps, so if you are interested, you may want to sign up early so you get your choice of dates! If you have a little one with a birthday coming up, another great option is a pony party. We can either host a party for you at the ranch, or we can bring the party to you! This year you can actually get your daughter that pony she wants, at least for a day! FOR THE ADULTS
But kids shouldn't get to have all the fun! We also have lessons, and other opportunities for adults to ride. Lessons are available for inexperienced to advanced riders. Just check in on the riding page for more info. We offer boarding, as well as training with your boarded horse. We even have discounted bundles if you want to train on a schedule with your horse. Not only do these additional trainings help strengthen the bond between horse and rider, but they also greatly improve your horsemanship skills. The boarding page has more information on both boarding and training with your boarded horse. SALES
For a number of years, C-Arrow has also offered an outlet to buy and sell horses and other critters, as well as saddles, tack, and other things of use around the ranch. We have recently consolidated a lot of that onto our new website. Visit the General Store, to see what we currently have for sale. And if you have something that we may want, feel free to upload a picture, and give us the details on the animal or item. You never know, you may just have what we were looking for too! HOURS
Everything at C-Arrow is by appointment only. We have our standard hours listed, but if we don't have something on our schedule, the gate may be closed. We are a family run business, and this is our home too. If we an event offsite, or other appointments, we may be closed during our normal business hours. Sometimes we close early because we don't have afternoon rides. Sometimes we open late if we have to drive to go get hay or feed. If the weather is bad, we will probably be closed as well. To avoid missing us out here, it is best to call at least a day in advance and set up a time to be here. Please don't wait to call until you are outside the gate and wondering why we aren't here.
