I went to seahorse ranch 3 years ago, and trust me, I never want to go there again. The horses were skinny and unhealthy. Although i apreciate that they "rescued" from abuse. (Apperently) The horse i rode was a super cute chestnut and i loved her. Since i was thinking about getting a horse of my own, after the ride... more

I've been riding here for over a year now and I absolutely love it here. I know that the vast majority of people who come here to write reviews tend to write bad reviews, so I decided to be the not-so-silent minority. :-) As I said, I've been riding here for over a year. When I first started riding, I... more

I love going on horse back rides. I've done many in the New England area and have always felt the ride is never long enough. I did read the reviews on this site, but thought to myself how bad could it really be. So I arrive and pay for a hour trail ride. The girl in the office was very... more

Well my dad, my friend and I went to Sea Horse Ranch and went on the 1 hour trail ride. The first thing I noticed when I got there were of course the horses. They were VERY dirty and it made me want to cry. We checked in and they asked us if we had experience with horses and all... more

I have been here twice and agree with the two previous reviewers. The horses do not appear to be properly cared for and can be difficult to control, the required guide was not friendly or helpful and did not speak English, and the ride was shorter than I paid for. The first time my daughter and I went on the... more

We went to the ranch this weekend and for the most part it was okay. I’m not a picky guy, but I have some good and bad things to say about this place. We get there around 12:00 and as soon as we get to the area to check in and pay, we are immediately told that my girlfriend cannot... more

I just returned from my experience at Seah Horse Ranch, and I can tell you that I am totaly disgusted and heart broken at the way these horses are living. I understand that muddy water makes dirty horses, but the condition that these horses were in literealy brought me to tears. These animals were dead tired, and clearly were having... more

We just got back from Sea Horse Ranch. When we got there the staff took the time to find out about our experience, so they could pair us with appropriate horses. Once the horses had been untied and bridled, the staff helped the whole group get on their horses, and adjust their stirrups to the right lenght. All the horses... more

The good part of this attraction is that you can just show up and decide if you want a trail, beach, or trail and beach ride...they have plenty of horses and guides. I was asked if I wanted to go with a group of girls who were celebrating their 18th birthday or not...it was up to me, which was very... more
