A Family Legacy

Rooted at the base of Rabbit Mountain.

For more than two decades, Lone Tree Acres has provided thoughtful, individualized care to horses in one of the most beautiful settings along Colorado’s Front Range.

Kristi Lay and her family have been the sole caretakers of this land since 2021. While they are relative newcomers to Colorado, the farm itself has been a sanctuary for horses for over twenty years. They believe the best care comes from keeping numbers intentionally small.

GUESTBOOK HIGHLIGHTS

What horse owners say about Lone Tree Acres.

“Our mare has never been happier. Kristi and her family genuinely care. She gets turnout every day, the facility is immaculate, and we get regular updates with photos. Couldn’t ask for more.”

— Sarah & Mark T., Boulder

“After a tendon injury, we needed a quiet place for rehab. The individualized schedule Kristi created and the peaceful setting made all the difference. She’s back in full work and we’re still boarding here.”

— Dr. Elena R., Longmont

“We moved our 24-year-old gelding here for retirement. The family makes sure he gets his special feed and extra checks. He’s living his best life with mountain views every day. We visit often and always feel welcome.”

— The Patterson Family, Loveland
