The booking experience was super easy, and everything I could possibly want to know beforehand was written out clearly. (I hate when websites have no info and just say something, like, call Bob at xxx to book now) On the day of, John greeted us at the end of the property's driveway, which I appreciated, as my dad can get lost easily going to new places. My parents and I rode horses in their late teens/early 20s, and they were very kind and well-trained. Our guide was Mayann (sorry, if I'm spelling wrong), and she was friendly and knowledgeable. My mom is very petite and maybe the least confident rider out of us, so Mayann offered to have her horse clipped to my mom's for the ride, which made her feel more comfortable. The experience is pretty pricey for an activity (my total was $314), but I imagine it can't be too far off from other ranches. Plus, we all left feeling like we had a really good experience. Compared to another ride we did years ago elsewhere, this one was so nice. The trail loop around Treetops Park is very shaded and secluded. It really feels like you're in the forest on a casual ride with your horse. I also appreciate that the staff takes photos for you during the ride, and that they were kind enough to chat with us and let us hang out with the animals afterwards. A different riding experience we had years ago had us ride senior horses next to a canal and the street. It was out-and-back style with no scenery except the cars driving by. There was 0% shade, the property felt claustrophobic and the only photos I have of the experience are ones my dad took of me in the tiny corral. I would definitely recommend Just Ride and stop your horseback riding research here. Compared to others, the staff here makes the experience professional yet personable, and you can tell the horses here are very well taken care of.

I found this place through Google. I was able to book a ride for May 19. When I arrived at the…read morepark, John texted me where to meet, and he was there when I parked. He gave me a wonderful shorter horse as requested. After signing a waiver, I was able to mount Sergio, and have my stirrups adjusted too. We rode at Treetops Park, a scenic park in the Davie area. My horse was docile and responded well to my reins and commands. The ride was very nice as we got to take a small break in the lake, and even see a tortoise. There were ample opportunities to trot and canter when safe, and my horse had no issues going at a faster pace. The ride lasted an hour. After our ride, we dismounted and the horses were unsaddled to enjoy. While the ride was quite expensive at 99 per hour, it was well worth it due to the private ride, excellent treatment of horses, and the freedom to go at your own pace. I am so happy I found this place as this is much better than the place I rode last year. It is worth the splurge to pay more money for well treated horses and a more personalized ride. I can easily recommend Just Ride.

We will probably go back on a cooler day…read more But the day we arrived it was 90°+ outside. There was a shaded trail but since we were going there to let a toddler ride for the 1st time, we had to walk beside the pony carrying her. The trail is plenty large for a horse or pony. But a bit awkward for an adult walking next to the pony. Also, due to the temp, I was getting overheated so we only walked about 15 min of the 30 min. We didn't ask for a refund or a rain check. Kinda our fault for booking in the dead of a Florida summer.

Rolling Oaks is a lovely, sprawling 46 acre park that was purchased by Southwest Ranches in 2001…read more People who visit are encouraged to enjoy the passive nature of the peaceful surroundings. The site of this park was once a tree island in what was part of the Everglades. During the Second Seminole War, the US government tried to capture the Seminole indigenous people to send them out west on the Trail of Tears. Around 200 members of the tribe were led by Medicine Man Sam Jones to safety as they hid out in the Everglades. Artifacts relating to the Seminole's time here were discovered in a midden in the tree island. Middens are a kind of ancient garbage dump that can tell you a lot about the people who used to live here. Shells, bones, human waste, and tools, are often found in middens. Unfortunately it is believed that any uncollected artifacts from the midden were destroyed when the parks paved driveway was constructed in 1969. Another interesting feature of this park is that is home to a threatened species of raptor, the burrowing owl. Burrowing owls are considered endangered, threatened, or of special concern in nine U.S. states. Unlike other owls, they are not strictly nocturnal and are active during the day. They make their nests in underground burrows, which are dug out by ground squirrels and they prefer open grasslands. Burrowing owls are protected by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act so you have to leave them alone. It was a treat to see one in the park before leaving him in peace. Rolling Oaks Park has two large open section with decades old ficus trees. Parking is available at the restored barn which can be rented for community and private events. Equestrian Trails run along the park's northern, southern, and western boundaries, joining with the trail along SW 178 Avenue/Mather Boulevard. The western pasture is open for your equestrian-riding and dog-walking. Freshwater fishing access is available at the southern boundary. There is also a butterfly garden, fitness trail, and enhanced wetlands. Many events are held throughout the year here including chili cookoffs and food truck round ups. Whether you're an equestrian, angler, fitness enthusiast, or simply someone like myself who enjoys history and nature, Rolling Oaks Park is an inviting outdoor space.
