We are a working horse farm you very likely could see people who board their horses on the farm riding on the trails or River Winds staff making hay to feed the horses in the winter.
We also have an event barn where you could host a special event such as a wedding, anniversary, family reunion or birthday. Our Event Manager could assist you in the planning and guide you to local vendors. A separate contract is necessary for barn events and additional guests. Some occasions we host public music events! Austin House guests are welcome to attend our music events.
We have an indoor heated pool perfect for a midwinter getaway with the family. Depending on Mother Nature we have a skating pond, snowmobile and cross country ski trails. Consider us next time your looking for a little rest and relaxation.
