Your Carson City Horse Barn Builder

Serving Clients Throughout Northern Nevada Since 2002

Framed by the Sierra Nevada to the west and Nevada’s vast high desert to the east, Carson City offers a unique setting for equestrian living. Whether you’re keeping horses on a small hobby farm or operating a large-scale boarding facility, this area combines ideal pastureland with easy access to trails, training grounds, and local rodeos. At DC Builders, we specialize in crafting custom timber frame horse barns that reflect the elegance, durability, and utility that horse owners in Carson City demand.
