Directions

The Magic Center is nestled off the beaten path in the beautiful Toutle Valley of SW Washington. We are located 1 hour from Portland and 2 hours from Seattle. We have a 120' x 64' outdoor arena and a 144' x 72' covered arena with 5 guest stalls, 2 paddocks and 3 guest pastures. There is a classroom, a kitchen and a comfy bunkhouse with 3 beds.

There are motels within a 10-20 minute drive:
Lakeview Lodging: 360-274-7482
Silver Lake Resort: 360-274-6141
Mt. St. Helens Motel: 360-274-7721

Horses: Bring your own water buckets, poop rake, hay, treats (we usually start out with grass hay pellets as the horses are on a high rate of reinforcement in the beginning). And thank you for leaving your stall, paddock or pasture clean for the next horse.

Humans: Weather appropriate clothing. Helmets required for riding. Boots required for working around horses. Bring a notepad for note taking and lots of questions. Bring your own beverages and food. We have a kitchen.
