About Us

Cedar Ridge was first established by the Avery Family in 1993 as a place to build relationships with horses in a unique natural setting. Today, Debbie and Kevin Ott and family continue this tradition with the assistance of dedicated independent contractors and volunteers. Cedar Ridge offers first rate horse boarding, horse training and riding instruction.  The gracious family home has been converted to a tourist lodge providing a large gathering place with private suites.
