What riders say about Cocoa stables

Hidden Acres Rescue For Thoroughbreds (HART)

I volunteer every Saturday with my dad and love every bit of it. The staff is amazing and very helpful! If you're looking to contribute some of your time and love horses, I recommend checking this place out!

★★★★★ Kimberly, Oct 2020

Half Halt Stables Dressage

Half Halt Stables is a phenomenal place to ride. The staff run a cordial and well kept facility year round. Each and every one of the horses that are boarded there are taken care of and flourish. It's a family friendly place I enjoy each time I go.

★★★★★ Ryan, Sep 2017

Southern Strides
