What riders say about Daufuskie Island stables

Daufuskie Trail Rides

Our ride here was part of a larger excursion to the island. It was our first time here and we can see why everyone that visits never seems to leave. As far as the stables and ride, everything was great. The staff were warm and helpful when we arrived.

Daufuskie Marsh Tacky Society

Best trail ride experience ever! Erica is so personable and lovely, it felt like riding with a good friend. Highly recommend to any equestrian that is interested in trail riding on the beach. It was never a dull moment. Unforgettable and memorable experience!

★★★★★ Caitlin, Feb 2025

Haig Point Equestrian Center

Although not inexpensive, having an opportunity to write a few horses along the shoreline was a treat in and of itself. The ladies leading us were great to work with and very informative in regards to the history of the area.
