Visit with Zip and Barn Tour
Visit with Zip our miniature horse! If you are looking for a party idea for toddlers or a group that doesn't want to ride, this is a great option! Book Zip for a 30 minute time-slot. He can be groomed, petted and can do lead-line rides for kids 50 lbs and under during this time-slot.
30 minute time-slot, plus a 15 minute tour of the barn, is $95 + GST.
We can add on an additional grooming horse for $24+GST so guests can groom 2 horses. Let us know the ages coming to the party so we can select an appropriate sized additional horse (if you want additional horses for lead-line rides, please select the lead-line rides option above).
Add on a party room rental or fire shack rental to have your food, cake, games and gifts!

Fire Shack and Room Rentals
Keep the Party Going!
After all of the excitement, the party moves over to one of Sagehill Stables indoor party rooms or the Fire Shack.
The Fireshack is nestled in a beautiful forest. There is a fantastic safe covered fire pit, perfect for roasting hot dogs or marshmallows even if its raining! This is the perfect way to relax and have a few snacks to finish off the perfect birthday party. There are 2 rectangular tables to set food and gifts on and there is bench seating for 10 to 15 people or bring your chairs to hang out on. Please note there is no electric heat or electricity in the shack, and you need to bring your own roasting sticks. The Fireshack can hold a max of 20 to 25 people, but on nice days you can have lots of people hanging outside the shack in the lovely forest on our log seating.
If an outdoorsy feel is not what you are going for, you can also rent an indoor room. We can provide you with 3 to 5 rectangular tables and chairs to seat up to 60 people on the main floor of the facility.
Fire-shack or indoor room rentals are booked for 2 hours. Usually you can get into the room or fireshack 30 minutes before your horse activity starts to decorate.
For special events or larger parties, Equus Hall is available (upstairs room that can seat up to 100 people). Please inquire for more details if you require a larger room rental.
For all our room rentals, party goers are required to bring their own decorations, food, drinks, water, table clothes, favours and marshmallow roasting sticks.
Email us at birthday@sagehillstables.com if you have additional questions regarding the room rental options.
