    What an awesome place to ride a horse ! The air is clean as it is in the forest, the horses are very well kept with a lot of love, you can see the care takers have that wonderful emotional connection to the horses. It is a great thing to do alone or with family if you like outdoors. The rides are on schedule and by appointment. The ride takes about 1 hour. Wear covered clothes, there are mosquitoes around just like nature you know. This is great for the adventure seeker people like me. The forest and the trees, the views were great ! I saw orange, pink, and red leaves trees. This is a fantactic time to ride because the trees are changing colors. Some trees have interesting shapes in them. My horse was Austin, he was great, I got to talk with him, I petted him, and kissed him. The instructions on how to ride the horse were very clear. I kind of let the Austin do what he wanted, he knew what to do and when to turn. I only had to pull him 2 times because he ate some leaves and I was not supposed to let him do that as per instructions. While I was talking with Austin, I was able to see my self reflection in his eyes, that was a first time for me, I love it ! huge beautify eyes he has. I believe this place offers horse riding classes also.

    Vinny, the owner, accompanied us on our ride and was very welcoming and knowledgable about his horses.

    I stumbled across this equestrian center through Groupon. I am so glad I did because I love riding…read morehere. There are so many riding stables that are much closer to my home, but I prefer to ride here (it's one of long islands best kept secrets) because everyone is so nice and there's no attitude or drama (unlike other stables on the island). I always feel like I have the ring to myself which is hard to find on the weekends. This farm is not massive but that's one of the things I like about it. Michelle treats all the horses like her personal pets and takes such good care of them. All of the horses I've ridden were amazing. Beau is by far my favorite horse but Kellie and Kiowa are also great. My 9 year old son used to take lessons on Kiowa and Pistol Pete. Michelle was great with him. Even though he wasn't really into riding she was so patient. Now he just loves to hang out at the farm while I ride on Saturdays. I've watched Michelle teach many children's lessons and noticed she explains riding in a way that children understand. With me (an adult that returned to the ring after a 30 year hiatus) she's soft spoken and provides quality feedback. She's certainly not one of those trainers that yells at you. If you're looking for a laid back down to earth stables with quality horses and a great trainer then look no further. You'll find your home here.

Love the drama free atmosphere. This farm works as a team & supports each other, which is amazing! Highly recommend for anyone looking to board or to receive lessons. All the farm staff, trainers & boarders have become family to me. The care, knowledge & professionalism can't get better!

You will see a place that's hidden in plain sight with all the offerings of being on a horse by or in the water! Typically I would venture to DR or Grand Cayman for such an experience but now that I found this priceless venue close to home I have to rethink flying away for it. Tony Danza (not the actor) set it up in the 70s and hosts beginners and advanced riders equally. The facility has indoors and outdoors accommodations no matter your skill level. For first time riders you will be guided through greenery until you reach the beach walk and then back again through a beautiful setting. Who knew this place was so accessible from home! The staff is warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. If you live in the area and always wanted to ride this is your place with approachable fees even to board a horse. I had a pleasure of chatting with Tony and he briefed me on the history of the place. I have been a few times already and can't wait to return.

Our trail guide was great, you can really tell this place cares for their horses. Even when having ample riding experience it's about putting the horses first and I'm so glad that this facility supports that and it shows. Thanks again for such an authentic and fun trail ride well deff be back!

    Great experience at the City Island Stables…read more It was my first time riding a horse and they made everything easy. We booked a private trail ride for 10:30 on a weekday. We arrived at around 10:20 and parked in the graveled lot. We entered the sole building where we checked in and had to fill out liability waivers. We then waited while the horses were prepped. In the building, there is a bathroom, a beverage vending machine, some lovely decor as some horse-riding related items for purchase. We were told to choose a helmet...they have both medium and large sizes. Now most of the helmets are very worn but there is sanitizing spray there. They also recommended and offered some bug spray (OFF) as it was very humid that day. Once the horses were ready we used the small staircase to get on them. It can be a little strange for those uneasy with heights or balance...but take it someone who is uneasy with both...you will get comfortable very quickly. Navigating the horse are very straight-forward...pull the reins left to go left, right to go right, pull both back to stop and kick the horse (yeah...I know...felt a little bad at first too) to speed up or go forward. The horses are well trained so they are very familiar with their order and the trail. They will navigate through it on auto-pilot essentially. During my trail ride, I only needed to kick 2-3 times...to catch (speed) up and move forward when it was distracted once. The trail offered a lot of tree-shaded areas so it wasn't too bad on that hot and humid day. Our trail guide was great...she seemed very knowledgeable and experience and answered all of our questions. All other staff we encountered were also very nice. We had a great time here and would highly recommend it. Trail rides (No reservations required) are $70 per person for 45-60 minutes. Private trail rides (Reservations required) where it is ONLY you, your party and the instructor are $85. There are also lesser options for $10-15 which include a guided ride around the corral. They also offer private riding lessons for $50 per 30 minutes and $75 for 60 minutes.

You need to make a reservation because if you don't, it messes up the timing of the rides and availability of the horses. It makes it so much easier for the staff (and other riders) if you book ahead. The horses were so incredibly sweet and well-trained. The ride was beautiful and I think it would be especially nice to go when the trees are changing colors in the fall. Note: you should wear jeans or other long pants, and definitely don't wear anything that you mind getting dust on. Also, tips are cash-only so bring some cash as well! Thank you for a great time!
