Our horseback ride on the pristine private beach of Cedar Island with Devon was absolutely…read moreunforgettable. The island itself feels untouched and magical, with wide stretches of soft sand, sweeping dunes, and the sound of the surf setting a perfect rhythm for the ride. The horses were beautifully trained--attentive, responsive, and clearly well cared for--which made the experience feel both safe and exhilarating. Devon was an exceptional guide: knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about the island's history and ecology. Her easygoing confidence allowed us to relax and fully enjoy the scenery. This is a must‑do experience for any coastal adventurer.

If you don't ride horses and you want a slow walk one way for 30 minutes to turn around and slowly…read morewalk back looking at the same deserted beach to smell the salt air and not think of a thing and decompress you'll like it. If you want something more than that you'll be disappointed. I'm an equestrian and thought being on the beach would be fun. Not! You have to stay at the walk. The horse handed me was their lead horse ergo wanted to be in the lead. The owner kept telling me to not get ahead of her. I circled all the way to the back of the herd. Guess. My horse went into the trot on his own so I posted and got my hand popped. That horse was in tune with me and wanted to stretch his legs on that beach, but that was not allowed. I understand about liability, but I signed a waiver. Every time we got a length ahead she wanted me to stop. My horse knew Whoa! and 3rd position! That horse had never heard "eeeeeaaazzzzy" or just wasn't feeling it. It was just frustrating and boring. It was a waste of $150 plus a $20 tip plus gas to drive to the end of the world. Speaking of, there are NO gas stations. Gas up and pee before you head there. Glad we did.

Would not recommend it!

Don't forget the bug repellent-you're going to need it around the park and sunscreen for the beach which has the feel of being primitive-it is part of a wildlife preserve-even though the Cedar Island/Ocracoke ferry is right next to the RV park. This is truly an experience that if you don't bring it with you-you won't find it here-I'm talking about grocery stores mainly-there is a dollar general that looks brand new within 20 minutes which is better then an hour to the nearest Walmart. If you're looking to unplug and enjoy the not having nothing to do style-this is your place too!

I had the "alpha" horse Redbull; hubby had the wild girl, Gypsy. It was so easy to ride, lead, and let them take us on the tour of Cape Hatteras National Seashore. I was amazed at how the horses seemed to know when it was time to head out & turn around on their own because the guide wasn't near by to lead! It was an amazing start to a birthday week full of surprises!

This trip was amazing. The horses were great and the guide was great as well. My only complaint is…read morethat we were with a group of like 5 other people whose riding abilities were much less experienced than ours. We were under the impression/expected that we would be able to split off from the beginner group and ride at a pace we would enjoy. Due to covid the guide said they were only using one guide this year (instead of 2) so we were unable to split off and do any trotting or cantering unfortunately. But it was still an enjoyable experience over all. I would recommend that they consider offering a longer more private ride option in addition to their services! We definitely would have paid more to have a longer ride time at a pace we would have enjoyed more!
