Welcome to King’s View Acres

Our program is built on the belief that excellent horsemanship requires more than time in the saddle—it requires knowledge, consistency, and thoughtful care.

At King’s View Acres, shareholders and boarders are part of a collaborative, educational environment where:

• Horses receive consistent, high-quality care

• Riders grow through structured lessons and hands-on learning

• Interns develop real-world skills under supervision

Shareholders are clients who are leasing part of a KVA owned horse.  They use KVA tack and they have signed contracts that cover vet expenses, farrier bills, and board as one fee.  Shareholders are responsible for grooming, maintaining tack, and minor injury care.

Boarders own their own horses and pay for vet and farrier expenses on their own.  They use their own tack and have signed boarding contracts.  

Our goal is to create a program where horses thrive and people grow.

Who We Are

We are an educational boarding facility with a discipline focus in classical dressage. We currently host the non-profit King’s Gift Fund and allow their interns to work with our horses, gaining hands-on experience through their Internship Program.

We have a Shareholder option which allows you the opportunity to lease a share of one of our horses. *Contact us if you’re interested in this opportunity*

We have an on-site instructor, Ellen Heckert, that offers dressage lessons to our Boarders, Shareholders, and the public. Please contact us at 717-836-6587 if you are interested in lessons.
