The Lake Loft on a Horse Farm

Welcome to The Lake Loft at Stables by the Sea, a 1,500 sq ft retreat on our ten-acre working equestrian farm and nature preserve. Our land and ponds are kept in their natural state, so you'll feel a million miles from the city, even though shops, restaurants, and every amenity are less than a mile away.



The loft sits on the second floor, overlooking one of our two lakes. Step out onto the big upper deck for sunrise and sunset, watch the horses in the paddocks and arena, and cast a line in our fully stocked lake. Inside are two bedrooms with queen beds that sleep four (an air mattress is available on request for kids), a huge family room with an open dining area, a full kitchen, a laptop-friendly workspace, a washer and dryer, and a Roku smart TV. All water on the property is softened and filtered, and the unit has a Brita filter, a hair dryer, and an iron or steamer.



Life here is slow and peaceful. Enjoy the horses, chickens, and dogs from outside the fences, pick up fresh eggs laid right here on the farm, go bird watching, or spend the night under a sky full of stars. Want to meet the animals up close? Just ask, and we'll schedule an encounter with our staff.



Who stays with us: we're loved by nature lovers, bird watchers, farm-to-table folks, and anyone who wants out of the city to enjoy nature and animals. It's very, very quiet here, which makes it a peaceful home base for travelers and remote workers.



For equestrians: our facilities are built for serious riders who train through the winter season or come back every year and want to stay on-site with their horse, just minutes from Wellington and WEF. The farm has six barns with 25 stalls and a grand prix size arena. We're also proud to be home to EQ Dreamers, a nonprofit that helps serious equestrian athletes chase their Olympic dreams.

Pets are welcome ($100 per pet, up to two). A charcoal grill and a small gas fire pit are available on request. You'll want a car to get around.
