Anderson's trusted boarding home.

Big Oak Boarding Stables sits on Centerville Road in Anderson, South Carolina — easy to reach from I-85, and far enough from the noise to feel like the country. That combination — accessibility and peaceful land — is what makes Big Oak work for the families and horse owners of Upstate SC.

The stable offers two boarding options designed for different horses and different owners: open pasture boarding with rotational grazing and 24/7 turnout, and stall boarding with twice-daily grain and closer daily supervision. Both include supplemental hay and full sand arena access.

For riders, Big Oak offers one-hour group lessons for ages 8 and up — sessions that cover more than just riding. Horse care instruction is built into every lesson, so students leave with a genuine understanding of the animal, not just the technique.
