Who We Are

Elliott Acres was born out of Deb Elliott's passion for horses and her passion for helping others. She combined those desires and formed the Elliott Acres Therapeutic Horsemanship Center where those with physical, mental, or emotional challenges find freedom on horseback. All riders will benefit from a healthy and rewarding experience, which builds self-esteem.
We try to improve our riders' physical, mental, and emotional selves with basic horsemanship principles. Elliott Acres currently serves clients with a wide range of diagnosis. Many of our clients are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum disorders, while others are dealing with an emotional or medical diagnosis.
