We appreciated the attention given to us by two young women (Gus was busy with a guest's birthday party) who guided us around the property and used our cell phones to take pictures of our ride - lots of pictures and videos! Herding calves around the corral was a cute experience while my wife pretended she was a "Rawhide" drover. i Highly recommend this for those who are young, infirmed, or novice. Experienced riders may find this a little tame, but still fun.

Our guides were friendly and lovely people to spend time with. We forgot our own bug spray (BRING BUG SPRAY. BRING IT.) but they had their own and let us use it, which was very kind. We saw deer on the trail and butterflies. Our party had a seven year old and their horse was lovely with her, very gentle and rode nicely. Catastrophe struck during our ride- my phone fell out of my pocket on the trail! Char and Kathy went out and rescued my phone, so now I can write this review. Overall, me and my family are very satisfied with their horses and the service of riding on this trail. Them helping to save my phone on their own time was super nice, they helped us take family photos while we rode. Couldn't recommend them enough! You'll have lots of fun! Bring water, snacks, and long sleeve pants and shirts and you're all set

It was my first time ever riding a horse, and from the moment I called, Marylin made me feel welcome. She was kind, helpful, and got me set up for my first ride. Since then, I've been riding there every week. It's always a fun, positive experience. The team isn't just professional--they treat you like family. Unlike other places where you feel like just another customer, Horsespring makes a real connection with you. It's more than just riding--it's a place where you belong and make friends. Horsespring Farm has the best prices I've seen, and the rides are unbeatable. It's definitely worth it. I've completely fallen in love with the horses--each one has their own unique personality. They're all great and incredibly friendly.

We had an absolutely incredible experience with C Ponies, and I can't recommend them enough--especially if you're looking for something unique, meaningful, and truly unforgettable. What makes this experience so special goes far beyond just "riding horses on the beach." These are rescue horses--many of them coming from difficult or neglectful situations--and C Ponies has created something really beautiful by giving them a second chance at life. You can feel how deeply loved and well cared for these horses are. They are healthy, happy, and genuinely seem to enjoy their work. One of the most fascinating parts was learning that the water is actually healing for them. Being in the ocean supports their joints and overall wellness, so this experience isn't just fun for us--it's beneficial for them, too. That alignment made the entire experience feel even more special and ethical. Our guide, Raina, was fantastic. She had the perfect mix of humor (yes, some delightfully corny jokes), warmth, and knowledge. More importantly, you could tell she truly loves these horses and what she does. She made everyone feel comfortable, safe, and engaged the entire time. Walking the horses into the water--and even getting to experience them swimming--was surreal. Each horse had its own personality, which made it even more fun. You could tell they were relaxed, confident, and happy to be there. It didn't feel forced or transactional--it felt like a partnership between humans and animals. Living in Sarasota, it also meant a lot to support a business that is doing such meaningful work in our own SW Florida community. C Ponies is not only creating unforgettable experiences, but they are actively rescuing, rehabilitating, and giving these horses a life filled with purpose and care. If you're on the fence--book it. It's one of those rare experiences that stays with you long after it's over.

We went to the stables for a horse ride session and ended up going canoeing as well. Our group was…read moreso large so the staff broke us up into two groups. Half went horseback riding and the other half canoeing then we switched out. Each session was about an hour long. We also got to tour the farm lands a bit before everyone separated, saw a few different animals which the kids love. The canoeing was fun and we stopped off on a little beach type area along the 22 mile stretch of water. Obviously we did not canoe the entire 22 miles I don't think we would've made it back by nightfall if we did LOL. AnyWho we hopped out and had a look around our new found "beach", self exploration the headed back. FYI the canoeing session was a self-guided tour so if you do that first be sure you keep watch of the time. The horseback riding was pretty nice and relaxing. The weather was perfect and our guides made sure that we were all comfortable. They gave us cold water and also stopped to take a few photos for us. If you have children they'll only go on the short version where you circle back twice so you'll still have an hour or you can just head back after the first time around. However if there are only adults they will actually take you into the woods. Overall this was a good experience. They take their time to set up everything but they make sure it's done right. Also it was a bit messy because they are shorthanded and things have been crazy since Covid.. We had to get her own canoe flip it over and wash it out. No big deal for me. They did have three other canoes for the members in our party, remember we were an unexpectedly larger group. All of that was understandable. Everyone enjoyed themselves and it was quite the experience for the little ones.
