Our 40 stall barn with its 3 tack rooms, and a hot/cold wash stall,  is surrounded by paddocks and newly added lush green pastures. We have an attached 70' x 120' indoor arena with Permaflex rubber footing and a viewing lounge. The fenced in outdoor is approx 90' x 200' with sand footing. The Hunt Course located in front of the barn has stadium jumps as well as stone wall, bank jump, brush boxes and a gentle slope.The Barn itself is undergoing renovations to include a newly coated/insulated roof, and new paint.  The drainage system has already been completed, and a new parking area for trailers is in the works.
 

The Event Course that encircles the entire property contains jumps that range in size from 18" to 2' 11" and includes table jump, stockade, tire jumps, ditches, coops, brush boxes, railroad tie jump, sheeps pen, and the terrain ranges from flat to hilly, to wooded, perfect for a quiet hack or some serious hill work!!! Also adding interest to the course and the property is a dry canal bed (Morris Canal) that also contains some jumps.

Horses are fed Equinelife quality feeds, oats, and timothy (locally grown) hay, and optional Smartpak supplements.

With 24 hour supervision (owner on premises) we do Night Turnout in the hot buggy summer season, to limit the stress on horses.

Harmony is known for it's relaxed atmosphere, and although some boarderschoose to show dressage or hunters, others simply come to enjoy their horses, and you may even see a driving horse or two!

Riding by the age of 5, training her first pony, a Chincoteaque named Sea Blaze by age 11,  Christie Stillwaugh has spent much of her life involved with horses in some way. She was a 4H member and rode western throughout her youth. She stopped riding when she entered high school, thinking maybe boys might be a fun change.  However, after meeting and marrying her husband Jim, Christie was given a horse that put her right back into the midst of the equine world.                            

She caught the dressage bug in 1995 while cleaning stalls at an FEI barn in Pennsylvania. After working with the warmbloods and watching their training, Christie realized what a challenge it was to ride dressage. When the resident trainer left their employ, the owners of the farm hired Heather Mason for clinics. It was after watching Heather with the students, that Christie decided to begin working with her.  

She purchased her thoroughbred, Chief Speaker from a want ad. Newt, as she calls him, had sustained a suspensory injury on the track and could no longer run. She would find out later he actually had two suspensory injuries and had she not bought him, he would have been put down!  "He was just so darn cute", Christie said, that she couldn't resist buying him with the hopes of making her own dressage horse. Sadly, that first winter was spent with her mom, who was very ill with cancer. While Christie was able to spend the time she needed to be with her mom, it also gave Newt the time he needed to heal. She and Newt began training with Heather Mason in the spring of 1996 and in 1997 Christie and Chief Speaker were the Region I Second Level AA Champions! Christie was thrilled! "I was so amazed that we won. I never knew this could be so much fun," she claims. In addition to the regional championships, she also received her USDF Bronze medal. And in 1998 received her USDF Silver medal and finished in the top 3 at 4th AA Level and Prix St George at Region One. In 1999 was the Champion at Intermediare I Freestyle and Reserve Champion at Intermediare I AA.

In 2000, while bumping Newt up to Grand Prix, she relinquished her amateur status to pursue teaching.  Grand Prix was a learning experience for both Christie and Newt. "He's such a cool horse, always forgiving, always trying no matter what I asked,"  says Christie. In August of 2002 she sold Newt to a women in the Foothills of Tennessee, where he loves to "show off" for her and is leading the life he deserves.
