Welcome to Locust
Grove Ranch Bed & Breakfast in Mount Vernon, Ohio, a Straight Egyptian Arabian
breeding farm standing Extremely Shai, the black son of Simeon Shai, a World
Champion Stallion.
Locust
Grove Ranch, built in 2000, has 75 rolling acres, complete with woods and
a meandering creek and is home to Sheila, our Australian Shepherd, 50 Beef
cattle, and our SE Arabian, Morgan, and Quarter Horses.
Enjoy a bike
ride down a country road or the nearby bike trails, de-stress with an in-room
massage by a licensed therapist, swim in the pool, select a book from the
extensive library, or try your hand at croquet, horseshoes, or bocce ball.
Convenient to Kenyon College
and Mount Vernon Nazarene University, while golf, shopping, ski trails, and
antiques are just minutes away.
The Ranch is a great place for your family gathering or
company picnic. Red Hat Teas, bridal or baby showers are special in the Great
Room, with hardwood floors, fireplace, even a grand piano. The spacious library
offers privacy for small group meetings or business gatherings.
Horse boarding is also available
for traveling or as a home base for riding the many trails such as Malabar,
Mohican, Alum Creek, or Mohican Valley. There is also an indoor arena. Locust
Grove Ranch is pleased to be accepted as an Arabian Horse Discovery Farm.
Please call to set up a visit to meet our horses and learn about the Arabian
Breed.
