Where Your Horse Comes Home

Nellie Gail Ranch · Laguna Hills, California

About Little Bird Stables

Tucked into the rolling hills of Nellie Gail Ranch in Laguna Hills, California, Little Bird Stables is a small, family-run boarding facility built on a love of horses and the people who care for them.

We offer a quiet, personal alternative to large commercial barns — a place where every horse is known by name, every owner is treated like family, and the welfare of our animals comes first.

With spacious double stalls, open corrals, and a 1-acre free-roam pasture, our horses get the attention, space, and peace they deserve.

Boarding Options

Two ways to keep your horse with us — both with full daily care, so you can simply enjoy your time together.

Our Story

The people behind Little Bird Stables — and why we do this.

Heidi Codorniz, owner of Little Bird Stables

About the Owner

Heidi Codorniz · Owner

By age 12, when Heidi got her first horse, she was already dreaming about owning a stable one day. Many horses, lessons, and homes later, that dream finally became real with the 2022 purchase of Little Bird Stables.

Raised around horses, Heidi has a deep understanding of the psychology of horse behavior and a gift for creating an environment that is safe and peaceful for both horses and riders.

The family behind Little Bird Stables

About the Family

A family stable

Eric and Heidi Codorniz have lived in Orange County for over 30 years. It is here, in the California sunshine, that they chose to build their home, businesses, and family — including three children and enough pets to run a proper zoo.

They genuinely care for their community, and their horse stable reflects their love of both humans and animals.
