For boarding, I cannot begin to genuinely say how well everything is taken care of, and how much effort is put into the facility and each animal.

Horse boarding in Iowa, by city

Cities with two or more boarding stables have their own page. The others link to every riding stable we list in that city.

Before you move your horse

  1. Ask what the board includes. Full, partial, self-care or pasture board mean different things at different barns. Get the details in writing.
  2. Walk the barn. Check stalls, water, fencing and turnout, and look at the horses already there.
  3. Ask about the feed program, vet and farrier. Who feeds, what, and how often; who comes out, and who calls you in an emergency.
  4. Compare. With 55 stables that board horses in Iowa, visit more than one before you sign a contract.
