Nestled within 154 acres of gentle rolling hillsides and miles of established trails in Phenix, Virginia, Spring Walk Farm is owned and operated by Kathleen and Jeffrey Shirk. Our dream to own a large horse farm and provide a log cabin for guests to stay in has come true. Visit our webpage for future pictures of guest cabins and our large new stable and riding facilities.
 


Established in 1994, Spring Walk Farm is best known for giving loving care to the horses owned and boarded here.

Kathleen has a reputation for finding that special animal for you and ensuring that that horse matches your ability and personality. Safety is always a very important element and pony club basic training techniques are the focus.

Daughter Chelsea-Marie is a USPC national champ and enjoys all disciplines of riding.
