What a great place and a great find. The Golden Gait Stables is a great place to go for a trail ride and feel so fortunate to have found it. Denise, made the booking process super easy and was very responded quickly to all my questions. She also picked out the perfect horses for myself and my friend Christine. The trail was perfect for a beginner such as myself and my horse Sam was a gem. He was so calm, smart and a great listener. Not once did I feel afraid or uncomfortable riding him. Christine, also enjoyed riding her horse. Andrea our trail guide was amazing, she made us feel at home and made our ride very enjoyable. The scenery and trails were just right. We definitely plan to ride the trails here again and I am even thinking of taking some lesson. We throughly it. Thank you again Denise and Andrea for making our ride fantastic today. Sonia

Set up a lesson for my Girlfriend who rides as a gift. The day before I called to confirm. They decided to cancel the lesson and hung on me when I asked why. No apology, no reschedule, no explanation. Kaily is rude. She shouldn’t be on the phone with customers.
Anyone can take a reservation but an effective business can also keep one.

I haven't been on a horse in decades and decided to brush up on my old skills. I was scared, uncomfortable, and really reluctant to even try. However, when I called Golden Gate Riding Stables, I spoke to Denise, who agreed to give me the chance to reacquaint my skills. Wow! She is a star! I have now gotten my confidence back and will continue to ride with her forever. Golden Gate stables, Denise, and her staff are the BEST! If you want to ride or need instructions, the trail rides there are amazing! On my first ride I saw a deer and other critters. What a great experience. I look so forward to going there each week. The horses, the stable, and the staff are all five star!

What an amazing experience my husband and I had this week at Golden Gait Stables! Leave behind your worries, anxieties, and stressful control issues! Allow yourself to be calmed and filled with joy by these beautiful horses! We went out on a trail ride with Denise and The Entertainment Gals! We could not have had a more enjoyable time! There was no hurry or rush, just an opportunity to see the world from the back of a horse! Don't walk, run to book your visit to Golden Gait! Then simply relax and enjoy! Your soul will thank you!

My daughter has been riding at Golden Gait every February vacation for the last 3/4 years. Denise or Briana provide my daughter lessons and she truly loves it. We feel welcome and my daughter is at ease with all the horses. They are calm and well-trained. This last trip we took a trail ride. There were 6 of us with mixed abilities and everyone had a great time. We walked and trotted on the trail ride and felt safe every step of the way. It is unfortunate we live up North or we would visit more often. I highly recommend a lesson or a ride!

I took my fiance as a surprise, unsure of what to think really because I've never rode before. Our experience was awesome! The trail was very relaxing and you get a great view of the local wildlife. Our instructors were wonderful and funny. I'm glad I decided to go through with it, definitely worth it. We might even look into having a horse at our wedding!

I first went to Golden Gait to rent a horse with my granddaughter. I had such a great time and the people were so nice and helpful, I went back on my own and rented horses numerous times. I have since bought my own horse and keep it at Golden Gait. We have a good time hanging around the barn and trail riding on a regular basis. Denise, who is the owner, is very patient with new riders and riding students. I can highly recommend this facility as a great place to learn and have fun. L. Epstein

Where does the trail ride go? Is any of it on the beach?

Hi! Your ride will be on the grounds around the facility - we are set just off of the Everglades. Unfortunately, we do not have any beach rides. We do have water, and depending on the cooperation, wild animals and beautiful flora and plants.
