Welcome to Harper Stables
Harper Stables is a 40-acre horse boarding and pasturing business nestled in the western section of Tuscaloosa County. We are located in Northport – only minutes away from the University of Alabama’s campus and downtown Tuscaloosa
The boarding facilities at Harper Stables consist of two barns. The barns are able to accommodate ten horses. The additional barn has six stalls while the original barn has four stalls. Each stall has automatic water, hay racks and corner feed buckets. The original barn also houses two tack rooms, a wash stall and three cross-tie areas. Also, located just outside the main barn is a hitching post.
Our property offers ample green grass for your horse whether it is boarded or pastured. In order to make certain that we have sufficient green grass during the dry summer months, an irrigation system waters some of the pasture and turn-outs.
The pastured horses have plenty of room to roam in the partially wooded pasture that has a creek meandering along the eastern border of the property and a pond that is framed by trees.
The feeding schedule consists of the boarded horses being fed twice a day and the pastured horses being fed once a day. During the winter months, since the grass supply is significantly less, round bales of hay or square bales of hay are distributed in the pasture and in turn-outs.
Here at Harper Stables we view all of our boarders as an extension of our family. We welcome you to come by and visit us.
Happy Trails!
