Yonahlossee Equestrian Center has been known in this
area for generations and the traditions of fine
equestrianship, learning to ride for show or pleasure,
and the care and training of horses and riders
continues. It began in 1922 when Dr. and Mrs. Kempter
began offering summer horsemanship camps in the North
Carolina Mountains for girls at Yonahlossee (Cherokee
for “trail of the bear”). Woman from all over the
country have happy memories of the camps fun filled
adventures and horseback training.
Today, the tradition continues in our mountain settings,
under the care of Amy Culbertson Bennett, co-owner and
horsemanship manager. Amy shares her skills and love for
horses assisting new and experienced riders. Our 28
stall barn is available for boarding your horse, or
perhaps half leasing one for your use. We also have
lessons available for English or Western riding and
dressage. We are the only public equestrian facility in
the area with our own all weather indoor riding ring.
Our facility offers warm water wash bays for the horses,

At every level, the care and maintenance of the horses
in out stables is out most important function. We have
24 hour on site management, and will work with you to
