Cypress Breeze Farm

Girls are nice. Horses are nice. Only thing is that they make you ride in a single file. Great if you want to experience riding a horse for the first time or two. The trail is basically going around a horse trail where the scene is other people’s houses and farms with other horses. Good for kids. Again, great for first or second timers for the price.

A lot of fun for a small price. Very friendly staff and really nice horses!
The trails were very pretty. Monica was extremely personable and knowledgable.
Midweek only $ 40 (at time of this posting). Weekends $ 50
Ages 6 and above
No experience needed.

We had tried many times to communicate with this business to well basically to confirm our horseback riding date. Finally talked with someone and they basically said well if you booked online you are confirmed. Ummm ok. 3 weeks before our vacation down to FL from MN, I sent a text and wanting more of a confirmed confirmation. «someone» responded back saying yes we have you down for that date. So we arrive, and right away we had a weird vibe. This woman didn’t even acknowledge us as she was too busy on the phone for like 10 minutes. Then she says to us, umm can you I help you? We are like yeah we are here for our appt. she says umm for what? We both (my fiancé and I) say will this is Cypress Breeze right? We have a horseback riding scheduled. She says, ummm we have been on quarantined for 2 months. I said then who confirmed our appt? (Showed the text message) she says don’t know and there is nothing I can do for you! Wow… just solid! This place needs to learn how to run a business. And guess what communication is key!!! Also when I suggested they put their address on website, their response is «we don’t want people just showing up off the street so that’s why we don’t have on website»! What, really… You are right next to a Elementry school. There should be «zero» stars for this place!!!

Absolutely wonderful place! Everyone is very nice and take a great deal of time to make the ride incredible. We’d never been on a horse before and they made it very easy and comfortable for us. We will definitely be going back for more rides!

I took my girlfriend to Cypress Breeze for her birthday as she has never done horseback riding. When I made the reservation, Monika was very nice and helpful. She was also our guide on the trail. We paid $ 50 per person, plus tip, for a 1.5 hour trail ride. They do have a pretty high platform for mounting the horses, should anyone be nervous. The trail ride was walked the whole way, through a path that took us on some bridges over creeks, through some shady trees, and some fields. It was very nice! We even crossed a street a couple of times. We saw alpacas at a farm on the trail, as well as plenty of horses. We definitely enjoyed the scenery. The horses are beautiful, well taken care of, and followed instruction very well. I figured the horse Monika took was a young one, as she had to take a moment at one point to get him to go straight, at which point all other horses stopped and waited patiently. At the end of the trail ride, Monika took pictures for the group. I would definitely recommend Cypress Breeze to any beginners, anyone celebrating a special occasion, or anyone just wanting to have a nice relaxing ride.

My son and I, being newbies, love, LOVE this place.
We did a ride back in July 2013 and went to other different places since then.
Now I may compare and will assure you that Cypress Breeze is simple the BEST.

Had an awesome time. Horses are great for every level rider. Saw some interesting scenery and wildlife. Monika was informative, fun, and safe. Everyone had fun and very reasonably priced. They obviously take care of their animals terrifically. Will be going back for sure.

This is the coolest place ever. The horses are gorgeous and happy. We were a group of four newbies with zero experience and they treated us like friends from the moment we stepped on property. Two ten year old girls, one Texas girl and a city boy all loved it. Can’t say enough good things except for we will be back. Great trail ride, even saw a zebra… in P. Park! BAM!

Awesome place! Had a lot of fun!
Decided on this place thanks to Unilocal reviews and brought my girlfriend here for her birthday and we definitely had a great trail ride so I thought I’d add my own review. The trails are great, Monika, our tour guide, was really nice, and the horses are clearly cared for and very healthy. We’ll definitely be back!

My friend and I had not been horse riding since we were young. After doing some research, we found Cypress Breeze farms. It was amazing! Monika was great! She told us about the horses we were each riding and a little about their personalities!
The trail was nice! We saw some baby ducklings too! Both my friend and I were beginner riders and we were comfortable with the ride. We live in Tampa but the drive to Pinellas Park only took about 30 min. It was well worth the drive to visit here! I would highly recommend coming here as you can tell they care very much for their horses. We did miss the place at first but a quick call to Monika helped us out! She was sooo friendly!

LOVED Cypress Breeze Farm trail ride!
I decided to take my girlfriend on a trail ride for her birthday. She grew up around horses and really missed the sights, sounds, and smells so I started to do some research. Thanks again Unilocal! We actually had our ride booked with another place I will not mention, cough Ruskin, cough… and when I started looking around, they had terrible reviews about the overall experience. I checked a couple places out and decided we would give Cypress Breeze a shot. We talked to Monica and from the start knew we would have a great experience. They really care for their animals there and love what they do. This all comes out with the postive attitudes from everyone involved!
If you are from Pinellas County you might recognize downtown St. Petersburg has a horse and buggy for rent… yep, thats them also! The big guy Bill is awesome! We loved our experience and would definitely go back!

Okay 5 stars right, yes… I’ll explain why.
My wife loves horses and I try to make her as happy as I can, so end up exploring things to do and this one nail it on the head. Its a little horse ranch in the middle of a really nice area inside Pinellas Park (dont be affraid its just 4 min from main hwys). the first thing i noticed was super clean stables, and fat horses (i say that in a good way) should probably say well fed. Then all around smiles and friendly atmosphere from entire staff makes you feel right at home.
From there you met your carefully chosen match ride, do warn you its not for galloping… (*that can hurt the horses and they will not do this there) You come out of location and take an hr walk in the equestrian trial of the area, see some wildlife, go around a few local pond (try to find the gator) and most of all you get to breath fresh air and connect with nature… helps you relax and remember why you came here in the first place… again if you came to run a horse at full speed, go to the track!
Monica (guide/​owner/​horse trn/​etc) talked to us about anything we asked, from local watering holes, to local nature, to Florida life (we just moved here and have tons of questions). What a great experience!
BTW they are the only ones in the are that offer this service to public, and also run the nightime carriages in downtown St Pete… Thanks Monica! Easy 5 stars! (hopefully I spelled everything right!)

So much fun. I went for my first trail ride here this past Saturday. With so few horse stables in the area, this place shined like a beacon calling me toward it. Monika was able to take me out with last minute notice.
From north St Pete, this farm is less than a 15 minute drive. Who would’ve thought that this adorable little slice of nature existed behind all of the hustle and bustle that is Park Blvd?
When I got there, my horse was all saddled up and ready for me. Her name was Angel, a retired jumping mare, and she couldn’t have been sweeter. I petted her the entire trail ride because she was so soft. We embarked on our trail ride and only 5 minutes in, I was greeted by 3 alpacas and a crowd of mini horses that ran up to the gate of the neighboring farm. The mini horses were so adorable and all I could do was kick myself for not bringing my camera! The trail was shaded in native trees and on a day like Saturday, 70 degrees and sunny, it felt just magical. We ended up in the sand arena and Monika let me trot Angel for a while. I haven’t been riding in so long but it all came back to me, just like riding a bike you might say.
For a one hour ride, it cost $ 50, normally $ 60. However, they are offering a $ 40 coupon right now, and I highly suggest you treat yourself to a fun trail ride here. If you’ve never been riding before, this is a great place to start. If you are seasoned, you won’t be disappointed.
