Just Horse'n Around operates guided horseback rides and riding lessons on extensive old‑Florida landscapes. The business provides a range of equestrian experiences including a One Hour Guided Trail Ride across a 9,000‑acre wildlife preserve, a One And A Half Hour Guided Trail Ride and a Two Hour Guided Trail Ride through approximately 9,954 acres of oak hammocks, pastures, scrub forests, and wetlands, and individualized Riding Lesson sessions. Each experience is led by trained guides who manage route selection, horse care, and rider safety, offering suitable options for beginners and riders seeking scenic trail time. Riders receive basic instruction on grooming, tacking, mounting, and controlling the horse during the Riding Lesson, which is offered as a one‑hour one‑on‑one session. Guided trail rides emphasize steady pace, wildlife observation, and landscape enjoyment rather than speed or advanced maneuvers. Bookings are available for distinct durations—one hour, one and a half hours, and two hours—so guests can select rides based on time, ability, and interest. Horses are used as the primary mode of exploration, and staff focus on matching riders to appropriate mounts and routes. Just Horse'n Around promotes responsible equestrian recreation within a wildlife preserve setting and serves visitors seeking outdoor adventure, beginner‑friendly instruction, and guided horseback exploration of old‑Florida habitats.
Safety briefings and helmet use are included as part of every session. Reservations are recommended to secure preferred dates and ride durations during peak seasons. Payment details, age and weight guidelines, and cancellation policies are provided at booking. Gift certificates may be available.
