Florida Trail Riding Vacation

Our Mission is to provide you with a very diverse vacation opportunity. From our location between Brooksville, Inverness and Homosassa, Florida, you will find peace and quiet where you can commune with nature. Our horses will carry you through the deep woods of the Withlacoochee State Forest. We will provide a trail riding experience tailored to your needs and experience level. If you have never ridden before, you will be taught to do so on the trail by an experienced and capable instructor with a long list of international credentials. In just a few days you can become a confident rider. If you wish to obtain more specific training, either beginner or advanced, lessons can be arranged for you on an individual basis.

We are here to serve all of your vacation needs. Our goal is to take our guests away from the stress of everyday life and create a relaxing and fun adventure vacation revolving around horses. Your time is yours to spend as you wish when we are not riding. You can swim & dive in the numerouse rivers, hike & explore the Withlacoochee State forest or other nearby preserves or you can visit Orlando and all it has to offer.

We believe everyone deserves their dream vacation. If you don't care to ride every day, you can create your own special vacation on the Nature Coast or beyond. We are here to help you meet your needs, and make your vacation one you will always remember. We want to build strong relationships with repeat customers who will refer us to their horse-loving friends.

Our horses are the centerpiece of the farm. Each one has its own personality; its own set of likes and dislikes. Some prefer a bitless bridle called a hackamore others prefer an english saddle. All are well trained and well mannered. We have horses of different breeds and sizes. You will easily find one to suit your style and expertise. This will not be a nose to tail walk-in-line trail ride. Your knowledgeable guide will be there with you every step of the trail. You may experience the thrill of a herd of deer suddenly appearing and running across your path. You'll have to go up and down into steep gullies.
Occasionally you may have to cross water. You will have an opportunity to form a relationship with your horse that makes the horse feel safe under your control. This will be a rewarding learning experience. We encourage each rider to sample as many different horses as they like. You can learn alot about riding that way. We practice natural horsemanship and do not use fear and pain to control our horses. Instead, we build trust and respect between horse and rider.

Our guests are given our undivided attention. Since we cater only to small groups, you will find that riding at Lady Hawk Farm will be a very personal experience. One which you and your family or companions will remember for a long time. The riding will be tailored to your ability and comfort level. Each rider will be allowed to ride to the limits of his or her ability.
