Horse Properties for Sale in Huntington, Utah

Huntington sits in Emery County at the foot of the Wasatch Plateau, and it's the kind of small Utah town where keeping horses on your own land is still normal, not a luxury. Lots here tend to run larger than what you'd find along the Wasatch Front — one to five acres is common, with some properties stretching well past that as you move toward the foothills and Huntington Creek. Many parcels carry shares of irrigation water tied to the Huntington-Cleveland Irrigation Company, which is a big deal if you plan to keep pasture green through the hot months. Summers run dry and warm in the 80s-90s, winters are cold but milder than the high country just west, and the riding season is long.

Access to public land is the other half of the equation. Huntington Canyon climbs straight into the Manti-La Sal National Forest, with miles of forest roads and trails that horse owners actually use — Electric Lake, Skyline Drive, and the Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry area are all within a reasonable trailer ride. Huntington State Park sits right at the edge of town for shorter outings. Properties typically include some combination of barn, loafing shed, tack room, arena, or pipe corrals, and zoning across most of the county is friendly to livestock. Prices tend to be a fraction of what comparable acreage costs in Heber or Morgan, which is why buyers from the Front Range and out-of-state keep showing up.

Common questions

About horse properties in Huntington.

How much acreage do horse properties in Huntington typically include?

Most listings fall in the 1 to 5 acre range, with a fair number of larger parcels in the 10-40 acre range closer to the foothills and along the creek bottoms. If you need significant pasture rather than just turnout, look at the bigger lots and pay close attention to irrigation shares.

Do Huntington horse properties come with irrigation water?

Many do, through the Huntington-Cleveland Irrigation Company. Shares are conveyed separately from the deed in some cases, so always confirm with the listing agent how many shares come with the property and what the annual assessment is. Without irrigation, keeping a green pasture through July and August is tough.

What's the zoning situation for keeping horses in Emery County?

Emery County zoning is generally livestock-friendly, and most rural parcels around Huntington allow horses without a conditional use permit. Inside Huntington town limits the rules tighten, so the bulk of true horse properties sit on the outskirts or in unincorporated county land.

How does pricing compare to horse properties in northern Utah?

Significantly cheaper. Acreage with a modest home and outbuildings in Huntington often runs a third to half of what a comparable setup costs in Heber Valley or Morgan County. That price gap is the main reason out-of-area buyers look here.

Where can I ride from a Huntington property?

Huntington Canyon and the Manti-La Sal National Forest are the main draw — Skyline Drive, Electric Lake, and dozens of forest roads are all within a short trailer haul. Huntington State Park is right at the north edge of town for quick rides, and the San Rafael Swell is about an hour southeast.

Are barns and arenas typically already in place?

It varies. Some listings include full setups — barn, tack room, covered arena, pipe corrals — while others are raw acreage with just a fence line. Check the property remarks carefully, and budget for upgrades if the existing structures are older, since materials and contractor availability in Emery County can stretch timelines.
