Miniature Ventures is
located in a unique
and
picturesque area where the high desert plateau of Central Oregon abuts
the magnificent Cascade Mountain range.
From our
back doorstep we are able to see up to nine mountains
on a
clear day. This puts us within an easy drive to the nationally
acclaimed
ski resort of Mount Bachelor, as well as hundreds of lakes, fishing
holes,
and white water rafting sites.
We invite
you to visit our ranch of nearly 50 acres where our
herd varies from 50-75, depending on the time of year. The 1800 square
foot barn consists of 6 stalls (including 5 foaling stalls,
several paddocks, a large tack room, med room, feed room and a closed
circuit monitoring system for foaling. Unlike our magnificent old
place, this barn facility doesn't have an attached covered arena but it
is coming. We do have, however acres of property with varied terrain
for riding our full-sized horses and driving our minis and ponies. We
grow a large amount of our own hay and have irrigation water flowing
through the property for about six months of the year.

Not far from
here are many riding trails and we're ideally
situated in the middle of a triangle made up of three cities of varying
sizes. Bend, OR is just a quick twenty minute ride away and
Redmond is about ten minutes. Yet, this is farm country and an
ideal place to raise horses and children.
Larry,
Maryann, and Brianna invite you to come visit the wonderland of
Central Oregon. Make a vacation of it and while you're here, of
course come by and visit the wonderful horses at Miniature Ventures
