LIVE WHERE YOU LOVE TO RIDE!

With summer's hot, humid weather come the seasonal thunderstorms. If you're an avid trail rider, you're in a high-risk group for being a victim of a lightening strike. Savvy trail riders check the weather before setting out and usually carry a waterproof poncho because pop-up thunderstorms often ...

This truck is parked in a field next to the National Guard Armory in Jamestown, Tennessee, south of town. Doesn't look like it's seen active duty in...quite a while! Better get a look while you can; that vine will obliterate it in no time and you'll never know there's a truck in there.

There is a specie of wild magnolia in this particular part of Tennessee that you won't see in most of the state. Preferring shade, it's most often spotted deep in the woods in Big South Fork National Park, up here on the Cumberland Plateau. It likes moist conditions and, since there's usually a c...

The countryside is full of cabins but where will you find a lovely, spacious home with all of the conveniences and comfort you could wish for, and a four-stall barn with all of the amenities that you and your horses would appreciate?

Here's a cute cabin tucked into the woods, not visible from the road. It's right on the horse trail in the very desirable Spruce Creek equestrian community and is only a few minute's ride to the Cumberland Trailhead into Big South Fork National Park, where you can ride for hours or even days! Sit...

Or….more accurately, you DIDN'T see it, and then you DID! I'm talking about cabins that spring up here seemingly overnight. Big South Fork National Park in Jamestown, Tennessee is horse country and many people bought land years ago, thinking that they would enjoy horse camping in the short term a...

Given the population density of Spruce Creek Acres, an equestrian community abutting Big South Fork National Park at its western entrance, it is amazing that the development offers city water and underground utilities. The availability of public water is one of the critical pieces of infrastructu...

My Broker at Tennessee Recreational Properties, Sue Neff, and I are both trail riders here in the Trail Riding Capital of the Southeast so we keep our eyes open and ears to the ground, always receptive to opportunities for marketing horse properties to horse people. It seemed like the proverbial ...
