Even in metro Vancouver, horse boarding survives — in Southlands, Burnaby and out to Delta. Five stables across the Lower Mainland keep board options within the urban region.

About horse boarding in Lower Mainland
The Lower Mainland's boarding barns occupy the region's last equestrian pockets. Heron Bay Equestrian Facility in Delta (4.6 across 52 reviews) is praised for the genuine care its team gives every horse. The Burnaby Horsemen's Association (4.7 from 42 reviews) runs on a distinctive self-board, co-operative model managed by the horse owners themselves. In Vancouver's Southlands neighbourhood, Old Southlands Stables (4.6 across 23 reviews) earns praise for its thoughtful, horse-first management. Self-board and full board involve very different commitments, so be clear on what you can take on and contact each stable directly.
