What riders say about Sarasota stables

Rosaire's Riding Academy & Pony Rides LLC

We had Rosaire's bring two unicorns for our daughter's 4th birthday. The unicorns were beautiful and it was an awesome treat for the kids! They were great with communication, very friendly, and great to work with. I would high recommend Rosaire's for a pony or unicorn experience.

★★★★★ Heather, Sep 2021

Triple J Ranch

Enjoyed the team roping very much as well as spending time visiting with Butch Morgan, cowboy from Colorado Springs.

★★★★★ Alva, Mar 2019

True Blue Farm

True Blue Farm is my home-away-from-home. As an adult rider of 30 years who has experienced a little bit of all sides of the industry during this time; as the weekly lesson kid, the intercollegiate kid, the partial-lease adult, boarder & horse owner I can’t express how much I love and appreciate what True Blue has to…
