Located in Warwick, NY, this 55-acre Farm consists of rolling hills with forest and pasture. Two large ponds ensure that a more varying eco-system thrives amongst the mainstay of the farm: the horse. There are two barns; one 1800ds converted cow barn with nine stalls, two tack rooms and a shower stall & 7 14ft x 14ft shedrow stalls attached to indoor arena The other barn structure is a run-in, made accessible to two fields with a center service isle. There is also a fenced in smaller 2 stall barn with center isle which serves as a dry lot for horses with sugar intolerance issues. Right next to the old barn, there is a 60ft x 160ft indoor arena with completely new footing as of December 2011: leveled, compacted stone dust base, on top of which is granite sand mixed with GGT (German Geo Textile), which is a fiber footing. It has worked out to be a fantastic, stable footing on which the horses feel totally secure. There is also a 100ft x 210ft fenced-in outdoor with a thoroughly compacted stone dust base and a four inch layer of sand. When it rains this footing is totally non slippery. The footing on both riding surfaces is maintained on a daily basis. We have a wonderful trail system which covers the whole farm through woods and fields. This facility caters to retirees, young stock as well as top competition horses.
The owners of Grey Dawn Farm are Cindy and Vanessa Krikava (mother and daughter respectively). The main focus of the GDF business is and will be the development of dressage horses for sale, most of which are imported from Europe. Grey Dawn Farm also offers boarding and lessons.
