Default Grrand Oaks Resort and Equestrian Centre

EDIT: It's called Grand Oaks, not Great Oaks!

Are there folks who attend events at this place? I was driving aimlessly (best way to find out what's interesting in the area is to intentionally get lost) last week and followed signs to it. I figured it'd be neat to see a museum.

Museum is closed, but it turned out to be this ENORMOUS resort/rv park/equestrian center, and I had driven in, in the middle of a bunch of events.

Horses everywhere, it looked like it was a dressage event. But this wasn't just one ring, it was several acres of rings, plus stables and cottages and a restaurant and just truly amazing.

I didn't stay to watch, and had to ask someone to help me figure out how to get out since all the roads seemed to be one way going in different directions.

Is this a "destination spot" for Villagers to attend? Spectators are admitted free, and it's right off Griffin Road.
