About Us

For many years, our family has cared for a wide range of animals on our private estate — a lifestyle rooted in compassion, stewardship, and a deep connection to nature. But among all the animals we've nurtured, horses have always held a special place in our hearts.

From an early age, I was fortunate to be raised around horses, and I experienced firsthand their gentle power, intelligence, and the sense of peace they bring. Even as a child, I held onto a dream: to one day have the opportunity to care for these majestic animals and create a space for others to experience the same connection.

In 2019, that dream began to take shape here at one of St. Cloud’s most admired properties — the Cross Prairie Estate. With 20 acres of pristine pastures, and the grandeur of a stately residence, the estate offered the perfect canvas to bring my vision to life.

Together with my wife, we have raised and fostered horses here ever since — not only for our personal passion but as part of a greater mission. We have witnessed the transformative healing that horses can offer, especially to young people, and have incorporated equine-assisted therapy over the years to many young souls .

Lily & Co. Stables was born from this love — and named in honor of my daughter, Lily, who shares our passion and is an avid rider herself. This stable is not only a sanctuary for horses but a reflection of her spirit, dedication, and the joy she finds in every ride. It is our family's heartfelt tribute to her and the equestrian lifestyle we all hold dear.

Now, as we open our doors to a select group of like-minded individuals, our intention is clear: to offer a boutique boarding experience where horses receive the highest standard of care, and where a community of passionate, respectful equestrians can thrive together.

At Lily & Co. Stables, every detail — from our lush, shaded pastures and automatic water systems to our personalized attention and tranquil environment — reflects our deep respect for these animals and the people who love them.

We invite you to become part of our story, and to share in the vision of a stables where passion, purpose, and prestige come together in perfect harmony.
