About Us

Equestrian enthusiasts choose Falls Creek Farm for its wonderful facilities, extensive services and our friendly, professional staff.

We are proud of our ability to smoothly run and manage larger-sized shows and we have the amenities to meet the needs of our customers who deserve the best. Numerous associations from around the US take advantage of our facilities. And we do too — each season we host shows approved by the American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA).

Our top-notch training and boarding services are also popular. Our training services help those who love to show earn valuable points and ribbons. And, those who need a place for their horse to rest can always count on us.

Our warm and experienced staff will make you feel right at home while you enjoy all the benefits we have to offer.

With a passion for horses and the Connecticut countryside, the Snowden family purchased Falls Creek Farm in the early 1980s. Since then, owners Guy and Dede (Pailthorpe) Snowden have not only enjoyed living on Falls Creek, but have also put their hearts and souls into evolving the Farm into a horse lovers’ dream.
