Their farm is very relaxed and tranquil and it was my happy place away from the stresses of work! This barn is a little piece of country in the busy city of Naples. The horses get all day turnout and the ring to ride in is large and well taken care of. There also was never any flooding no matter how much it rained in the summer. The other boarders are great and I loved our little barn family. It was a small drama free facility that I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a well priced barn for their giant fur baby!

Brandon ensured we were all comfortable and well situated on our horses. He and another trainer Kayla walked the course with our girls ages 8 and 11 which made this Momma very happy. Our trail was 30min long and took us through what they called the fairy garden - the girls loved that idea. Other rides can be longer but because we had the littles this time length and speed fit us perfectly. The location is very easy to find coming in from Fort Myers. Our GPS took us right in. The weather was beautiful, it was awesome to be outside and on the horses. All total it was around 40 per rider. They have the ability to take credit cards and you can tip on the card.

We drove 45 minutes to the Stables and I realized that I should've called up in advance and made a reservation but Brandon told me if I wait about an hour, he'd gladly squeeze us in for a 1.5 hour trail ride. They were ready for us promptly and quickly got us mounted up and ready to go on Cutter and Pico. The trail ride through the woods was great and Brandon was a great guide, keeping us engaged and answering any questions we had about anything and everything. The time flew by and it was an absolute great time. I am going to make it a point to go to 5 Star Stables every time I come down here for vacation from now on. We paid $75/each for 1.5 hours and I think that is more than fair! I highly, highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a horseback riding adventure!

CREW is the acronym for the sixty thousand acre Corkscrew Regional Ecosystem Watershed. The CREW…read moreLand & Water Trust was established in 1989 as a nonprofit organization whose purpose is to purchase land, manage it, and offer public outreach. The CREW project includes parts of southern Lee and northern Collier Counties in southwest Florida. The Corkscrew Marsh, Bird Rookery Swamp, Flint Pen Strand, Camp Keais Strand, and the Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary are all CREW lands. Fifty-five thousand acres of CREW land is in preservation and it provides flood protection, water filtration and important aquifer recharge. They would like to purchase even more land in order to preserve natural resources such as water and to offer protection for wildlife. I have been fortunate enough to explore several of the CREW properties and each is a treasure of native plants and animals and unspoiled wilderness. The CREW Cypress Dome Trails is also known as Gate 5. A cypress dome is a swamp that has mainly pond cypress and bald cypress trees. Tall trees are at the center with smaller trees at the edge which creates a dome effect. The moist environment is also ideal for other plants, shrubs, and trees. The dome removes carbon emissions and stores water, recharges the aquifer, and provides drinking water. In the dome you can expect to find flatwoods salamanders, white ibis, and wood storks. Be aware that black bears and panthers also live here. There are six miles of loop trails that traverse through pine flatwoods, oak hammocks, wet prairie, popash slough, and two cypress domes. Trails are flat grass and sand. The trail connects to the Caracara Prairie Preserve which is owned and maintained by Conservation Collier. A $3 cash donation is suggested for use of the trail. Trail maps are located at the trailhead along with one port-a-potty. Bring your own water.This trail allows horseback riding With a free special use license from South Florida Water Management. During my visit it was hunting season. Although I didn't hear any shots being fired all of the signs about it made me feel nervous. I went down the trail a way before becoming uncomfortable and deciding to head back. I don't know why they allow the shooting of migratory birds. I can't imagine flying 1,500 miles to Florida to get shot by a hunter. SMH. The only thing I want to shoot birds with is my camera. I'll be back after hunting season. Hopefully some birds will have survived the hunt.

Mickaylaa was our trail guide and despite her having a terrible case of laryngitis she did awesome! We really liked how you do more than just ride a trail you are given the whole horse interaction experience. We were able to properly groom the horse with brushing them, and shown how to clean out the hooves make sure there aren't any rocks caught. We were able to be involved with watching them put the tack/ saddle and saddlebags on our horses. Need a bottle of water or keep your cell phone close? You got it right with you in the saddle bags. We then were able to get up on the horses and were given a corral & agility area to ride so we could get comfortable with our horses. Once we were comfortable then we hit the beautiful and awesome trail. This place has such sweet horses that are awesome with children as well as adults. Mickaylaa took many awesome pics on the trail. We will be back!
