THE PINE HILL RANCH
Our Journey, Our Vision

The Pine Hill Ranch began as a dream. A dream planted in a young boy’s heart, a twinkle in his little eyes. A mischievous twinkle in the form of a pinto pony named Dobber. On the back of Dobber, this little boy battled armies and conquered mountains. He fought Indians and slayed dragons…. and he fell in love. He fell in love with horses. So the dream began for Bobby Mullenax, a passion that would someday fuel his heart and inspire him to build The Pine Hill Ranch.
This dream would one day lead Bob to attend a horseshow in St Louis. A National Championship Horseshow where he fell in love once again, with American Saddlebreds.
Bob’s love for horses was rekindled and he was given his first horse, a five gaited American Saddlebred named Copper Heir. On the back of Copper, Bob once again slayed dragons and conquered his enemies. A few short years later Bob made the purchase of his first horse, also an American Saddlebred, a yearling mare named Red Hot Mamma, affectionately known as “Girlfriend”. (Learn more about Girlfriend by reading Who is “Girlfriend”?)
Girlfriend, shown by equestrian Carrie Kessler would go on to win six World Championship titles in the competitive Working Western Pleasure division of the American Saddlebred Association. No other horse has won as many Championships in one division with this association. In this class, Bob Mullenax, Carrie Kessler and Girlfriend set the standard for excellence….a standard that continues today at The Pine Hill Ranch.
PHASE I

The multi-phase project at Pine Hill Ranch is already in its second stage, with the completion of the Lodge and meeting space. The architectural theme centers around stacked stone and treated timber. It’s streamlined and elegant, without distracting from the surrounding landscape or your occasion.
PHASE II

The Equestrian Center, opened in 2018, includes an open-air covered riding arena that can double as an event center, a climate-controlled viewing lounge, an outdoor riding arena, and a bonus pavilion in proximity to the Equestrian Center building.
PHASE III

Look below to see an illustration of the Canine Center at the Pine Hill Ranch, another special feature of the world class Pine Hill Ranch. Services coming soon include boarding, daycare, grooming and training.
