About us

Barrel Creek Horse Sanctuary is a family-owned and operated rescue and retirement farm located on the scenic King family property in Chester County, Pennsylvania. We provide a safe, loving, and lifelong home for senior horses, retired racehorses, and equines that have been neglected, abandoned, or are no longer wanted.
Our sanctuary is built on a foundation of compassion, respect, and dedication to horse welfare. At Barrel Creek, each horse is treated like family—receiving personalized care, nutritious feed, medical attention, and the freedom to roam on spacious pastures. Whether it's an aging trail companion or a retired Thoroughbred, our mission is to ensure every horse we take in lives out its years with dignity and comfort.
As the King family continues to grow this sanctuary, we remain committed to raising awareness about equine rescue and responsible horse ownership. We invite you to follow our journey, support our mission, and help give these incredible animals the peaceful life they deserve.

A Peaceful Pasture for Cherished Horses!
