Stonehouse Trails

Rustic Trails for Rustic Riders

Come and stay with us at Stonehouse Trails and explore our part of New Mexico. Treat yourself and your horses to our trails and wide open spaces that make up the vast Gila National Forest.

Finally!

Not a dude ranch

Not a pack string

If you love taking your horse on vacation, and trail riding is your passion, then come on out to ‘Stonehouse Trails’!

You will have access to endless trails throughout the Gila’s millions of acres, and where our 6,300ft elevation allows for comfortable trail riding all summer long.

Cool mornings and evenings, with warm afternoons and short-lived showers, which come with those refreshing monsoon rains.

While we like to keep this part of New Mexico “secret”, we’ll turn you on to many incredible trail rides that we’ve cultivated from years of exploratory bliss and to which only the locals are enlightened.

After a fun day in the saddle, enjoy your evenings around the firepit, grilling favorite entrees, all the while soaking up a vibrant New Mexico sunset.

Our Philosophy

Our Story

Carol and Steve

We get it. We’ve been there!

I’m Carol and along with my husband Steve, we’ve had two lifetimes of horse experience spanning the globe.

From the starting gate to the show ring.

From steeplechasing to the polo fields.

From working cattle to the thrill of fox hunting, its been an amazing journey!

We’re now retired and lucky to have found this beautiful part of the country to settle in …

Our Mission

…so we want to share the best thing of all, the immense enjoyment that comes from the simplicity and tranquility of just you, your horse, wide open space and time that stands still.
