Would your child enjoy learning real horsemanship skills, like grooming, tacking, and feeding their horse? Does the idea of riding every day out on the trail or in the arena appeal to your summer camper? Do you love the idea of your kiddo bonding with one horse for a whole week?
Sagebrush Stables is a woman-owned business in south Littleton that offers an authentic Western experience for campers of all skill levels during its summer horse camps. With dedicated trails along the historic Highline Canal and Sterling Ranch open space, campers will experience amazing views and wildlife from horseback.
Trained, knowledgeable wranglers offer experiences tailored to meet your child's personal needs, from providing lessons and safety helmets for first-timers to extended round-trip excursions for those riders who yearn for a bit more of a challenge, Sagebrush Stables is only a phone call away. BUT... you definitely shouldn't wait to secure your child's spot. Sagebrush Stables Horse Camps fill up quickly!
Here's why kids (and parents!) love Sagebrush Stables so much:
- Each camper is assigned a partner horse for the week, allowing them to bond with and learn the personality of the horse that they will be working with.
- The staff at Sagebrush Stables is keenly aware of the temperaments of each of their 40 horses and matches the rider's strengths to the horse that best suits them.
- Campers immediately get to work after arriving in boots, jeans, sunscreen, and a wide-brimmed hat! Each camper grooms, feeds, waters, and cleans up after their assigned horse, then prepares to saddle up under the watchful supervision of one of the trained wranglers.
- Knowledge is the key to safety! Each camper undergoes detailed training to learn how to buckle, strap, and blanket the saddle so that it is solid on the back of their assigned horse. Rides are safe, and the campers are confident.
- The staff adjusts their expectations of the campers daily based on what skills they have learned and mastered, almost like a classroom tutor. The campers then notice that they have earned differentiated horse care and rider responsibilities from the staff. They end up trying harder each day to meet and exceed expectations.
- Not only will kids have fun each day, but they will also learn and appreciate the responsibility of caring for a horse.
- At the end of the week-long camp, the campers will be presented with a personalized memento to commemorate the fantastic work and skills they gained.

Would your camper love extra riding time?
Extend their camp day with the Pony Pals program! Pony Pals is a week-long riding club for kids who just want to ride and have fun! Kids get to explore the trails on horseback and see lots of wildlife! Parents are welcome to ride along. There are five rides each week, with a total of 6½ hours of riding time.
Pony Pals and Horse Camps can be combined. Ask for discounted rates!
NOTE: Although the program is called Pony Pals, the kids ride full-sized horses, not ponies.
A Word from Emily, Sagebrush Stables Co-Owner
I have taught and operated Horse Camps for over thirty years and had the opportunity to learn from one of the best in the business over the last three decades with Chatfield Stables. Now, the business has transitioned to me as the owner, but you can expect the same wonderful knowledge and experience for your camper.
I focus on safety, skills, and wonderful memories for your camper to cherish. As a mom of four and a pediatric emergency room nurse, I have a knowledge base that many do not when it comes to interacting with children from all age groups who may require special needs on-site, such as medication or allergies.
You will feel like family with every experience at Sagebrush Stables. Our family works here, rides here, and loves helping build moments everyone will remember for a lifetime.
