NEWS FLASH! Due to demand, the refreshment station is returning to the show barn lounge!

You’ll soon be able to enjoy coffee, tea, and hot chocolate again while you sink into a comfy couch and watch lessons.

Here at Knollwood, we welcome and encourage hanging out in our lounges. There are no cocktails or Vegas lounge singers (most of the time! ;-) ), but the Knollwood lounges do provide the best places to learn about riding and allow you to witness some incredible equestrian educational experiences.

Why should you make use of these inviting, climate-controlled spaces?

Frequently overseen by lounge queen Hazel and princess Izzy, the show barn lounge is the perfect place to watch lessons or catch up on work.

We love parents staying to watch lessons. 

You'll watch your rider build skills in the arena as they learn skills from different horses.

You’ll learn from your rider’s instructor what they worked on in the lesson, and how it went.

You’ll also learn about what the next goals are.

You'll become well acquainted with Hazel and Izzy who both think they're lap dogs.

You’ll hear all about special events coming up at Knollwood, and how you can be involved.

And, you’ll meet other fun Knollwood Kid parents enjoying the role of spectator. We can frequently hear the lounge laughter in the arena.

Do you have work to do? Enjoy our free wifi and set up your mobile office with us!

And then there's the school barn lounge!

Overseen by fabulous friendly admins and the cats of Knollwood, the school barn lounge may look a little more rustic, but there’s a wealth of information to be found here.

Our admins know just about everything Knollwood related and can find answers to things they don’t.

They can help get you involved in upcoming events, keep you informed of all the barn news, and relay information to your instructor when needed.

We have bulletin boards with information on upcoming events, and about our show stars.

The school barn is where you’ll find samples when we’re ordering merchandise as well as show entry registrations and information about Knollwood shows.

Please join us in the lounge of your choice, We guarantee you'll learn many things, and meet lots of fellow horse parents!
