About
us: Abajo Haven Guest Ranch is so unique because of
the Havens rich history in the horse industry.
Bill Haven has been training, showing, marketing, and
raising horses in the Arabian industry most of his life.
He literally has helped hundreds of people with their
horse needs- whether it has been teaching someone to ride or
marketing a National winning show horse.
He first earned
his spurs by learning from the renowned Sheila Varian
(Arabian top breeder) in California and from training under
Jerry Smola (who trained and showed the famous *Bask to his
National Championships) in Texas.
Since 1982, Bill along with his wife Leslie have been
winning championships, teaching horsemanship classes,
giving youth camps, and training hundreds
(if not thousands!) of horses of every level.
In 2006, they sold their ranch in
Loma,
Colorado (Desert Hills Training Center) and bought their
dream home and named it the
Abajo Haven Guest Ranch. Bill and Leslie love the outdoors
and want to
bring some of the outdoor experience to you.
The Havens could not find a better area that supports
so many recreational opportunities.
This area caters to the biker, hiker, trail rider,
ATV rider, and site seer.
Come enjoy this experience with us!
