We shared the article, ‘The Hot New

Trend Where You Live With Your Horses.’

Here’s what a few of our fans had to say.

LeoandDana VanSistine

We currently lease one and love it. We plan

to purchase our own rendition soon, minus

the upstairs aspect. Not a fan of the upstairs

living quarters because it’s too hot in the

summer and no one likes climbing stairs after

a long day working outside. Our plan is to

have the house on same level with the arena

and stalls.

Becky Blansett

Interesting concept, but fly control would be

a problem and how do you control the smell?

Just imagine waking to the smell of fresh

horse urine wafting up every morning! YUCK!

Sara Forish

My barn is attached to my house—it’s off the

back of my garage. It’s glorious not having

to walk outside in New England winters. It’s

always kept neat and tidy, so the smell is

minimal, as well as flies.

Marie Manherz

I lived in an apartment above a barn for a bit

and loved it. I did get woken up when horses

were sick. I actually liked that I could hear

them, I was able to catch colic very early.
