Split Elm Equestrian
acre fields. One of the fields was converted into a riding arena
and the other three are used for turnout. The kid's barn also

features a 50 x 150 indoor arena complete with rubber footing,
surround sound speakers with iPod hook up, lights and ceiling
fans. Split Elm II(the adult's barn) has a 20 stall barn and six
paddocks. The adult's barn features trails, a 7/8 mile sand race
track another riding ring and a small pond. The idea for the Split
Elm name came from the presence of a magnificent Elm tree
located at Split Elm I. The farm house, also located at the first
property, was built in 1836 and has been restored for modern
use, while maintaining the historic and rustic feel. The house is
available to be rented out for parties, and is the used for summer
camp and 4h activities! Split Elm is a preserved horse farm and is
registered as such with the state of NJ. We are inspected on a
yearly basis.
