What riders say about Ocala stables
The Canyons Zip Line and Adventure Park
This was such an awesome experience! I haven’t ridden a horse since I was a little girl and have been wanting to do it again as an adult for a long time. This was such a great place to do that! Our guides, Zach abd Jess were very knowledgeable, witty and fun! I loved that Jess took pix of us throughout our experience.
Cactus Jack's Trail Rides & Farm Tours
My daughter and I absolutely enjoyed the trail ride from start to finish! Most importantly, we could tell that the horses were loved and well cared for! Katie and Lyla were so kind and knowledgeable.
The tour was fantastic. Only thing I’d change is make it longer cause I didn’t want to leave! It was so interesting learning about the history of the farm and then seeing the beautiful horses in person and pet them. Meanwhile we were joined by fluffy donkeys the whole way.
