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--calm, 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.

There were only three riders which made it so special Allison, our guide, was absolutely wonderful. Immediately you could tell she loves these horses and takes outstanding care of them.

The staff was very friendly, they instruct you on how to get on, ride, guide and get off the horse. The trainer took my husband and I on a 1-hour ride around their property, which was part in the open sun on grass between different fenced off horse areas, and in the "woods" where there were tons of trees, plants and vines to walk through. The tour guide wasn't very talkative, but my husband and I liked that. She answered our questions and led us on a peaceful, relaxing journey with our horses. We both loved it and would definitely come back. In addition to horseback riding and horse boarding, they have pony rides for kids, riding lessons, cabin rentals in the woods and a mini general store, which has your basic drinks, snacks and cowboy merchandise.

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.
