Comments: (4/1/23) - "The ranch is absolutely gorgeous! Highly recommend! It was convenient to pull in and offload horses, even in the dark. The host was amazing, as were all of the amenities. My horses were safe and were able to pasture together. Thanks Michelle! 5/5 stars!". . . (4/3/23) - "This is hands down a first class place. The host was beyond helpful and even had a bottle of wine awaiting in the cutest little cottage we rented with our stalls. The stalls are large with nice size runs for horses to stretch legs from their long trip. We will definitely be back.". . . (7/3/23) - "GORGEOUS and COMFORTABLE! I cannot say enough positive things about this property. Michelle was waiting on us as we pulled in from 13 hours on the road despite being delayed by a blown tire and even offered us dinner. Stalls were large, clean and plenty of room for us to maneuver our trailer so we didn’t have to unhook. The cottage had the AC down and candles lit so we immediately felt relaxed. The 2 bedroom cottage had everything we needed, comfortable beds, clean linens, coffee and kitchen supplies so we were able to make a home cooked meal after days on eating on the road. A huge plus was our son enjoyed the catfish pond and games in the “man cave” We will definitely stay here in the future!". . . (9/6/23) - "Life’s a Beach Horse Hotel and Rescue was AMAZING!! We had to evacuate hurricane Idalia and called Michelle ( owner ) and she didn’t hesitate to get everything ready and welcomed us and our horses with open arms! Wonderful facilities for the horses! Beautiful grass pastures! My 4 horses were happy and safe! The farm is gated and we felt safe , tons of amenities! Washer/Dryer, beautiful horse trails to ride, pool table and ping pong table, pond with fishing, shooting range, close to town. We stayed in one of two cottages on the property and it was gorgeous! Beautiful horse decor, AWESOME mattresses, food was in the fridge and wine was waiting when we arrived. Can’t say enough about ,Michelle the owner, she was so gracious and accommodating and understanding as we were worried about our home back in the Big Bend area. Just a great lady! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for letting us stay at your gorgeous farm and for being so wonderful! We have definitely made a new friend! I would Recommend this farm to anyone!". . . (11/30/23) - "Gorgeous property, we were greatly welcomed by Michelle. She was able to find the best option for our horses for their night stay .The cottage is amazing! We highly recommend this place ! Thank you Michelle.". . . (2/13/24) - "These facilities are very lovely - roomy stalls, lots of space for pasturing, big covered arena for walking around, well lit at night time. The onsite cottage is beautiful - very zen and spa feel. We had a very comfortable and secure stay. Michelle, our host, was very friendly, professional and a seasoned rider so she definitely knows proper care for horse and riders.". . . (2/6/24) - "What a beautiful horse farm this is!

Very flexible on times of arrival and departure.". . . (10/28/21) - "Stayed here for a month last March with my two ponies. Lisa was very accomodating for my request for pasture board and made her facility available to me (round pen, arena, wash station etc.) The Bradenton area has lots of trails nearby and Lisa gave me the inside scoop on where to go, and restaurants/amenities in the area. A gracious host with a beautiful property. Thank you!". . . (1/25/22) - "Lisa has a lovely facility and we immediately felt comfortable. Our horses loved the place.

Comments: (2/17/15) - "Kym and John are friendly, courteous and obliging hosts. I'm so happy I discovered their ranch, and have stayed with them several times, both weekend and week-long durations. I'm already booked in advance for future visits! I attend horse shows in the area and also love going out for a relaxing ride on the Croom Wildlife trails (Withlacoochee State Forest) with them during my stay. Their ranch has everything you could want when traveling with your horses, and both Kym and John are very knowledgeable equestrians.". . . (10/26/20) - "This is a lovely facility and is very convenient to I-75. I had no horses this trip but both John and Kym took time out of their day to give me a tour of their place. The grounds and facilities are neatly groomed, fences are well maintained, security cameras and a coded gate are installed for extra protection. RV hookups are back-in and there is plenty of room for maneuvering. The last 1/10th of a mile of the road is packed sand and will cause no issues with rigs. The facility is across the street from a state forest that offers miles of scenic riding. The Spanish moss in the trees adds a unique charm to the property. The GPS marker in their listing directed me to their property on the same route as in their directions. Thanks, John and Kym, for your hospitality

(7/16/20) - "Arriving just after sunset, it was dark when I arrived. My first night on the road so I was a little nervous. Elaine met me, along with Jose, who worked for her. They helped me get my horse turned out and then into a really comfortable stall. Elaine helped me fill up my water tank and get power going to the living quarters. Very quiet and peaceful. There was huge load of polo ponies that pulled in at 3:30am but I never even heard them! The farm was very convenient, just off of I-10.". . . (10/23/20) - "Arrived after dark and Elaine met me at the road on her 4-wheeler and I followed her in. Got my horse unloaded, and was able to put her in a turnout while Elaine assisted me getting my trailer backed in to where the RV hookup was located. She turned on all the arena lights and barn lights, too, to make navigating easy, as well as standing at the back of my trailer to guide me back. Stall had fresh shavings and 2 buckets of water. Very nice facility, well kept, safe fencing and stalls. Will stay again if in the area and available.". . . (2/1/21) - "Great facilities and very accommodating! Highly recommend.", , , (3/20/21) - "Top flight in so many ways. Quiet, peaceful, secure. Owners live on property and met us as we pulled up & graciously got us settled in. Large stalls or paddocks are options depending on owner preference and availability. Our horses went into a large paddock with a loafing shed so they could graze, eat hay and stretch their legs. Hay available for purchase. Fresh water in a very clean water tank was in the paddock. Stable was very clean with lots of natural light and air flow. Wash racks adjacent to barn. Two restrooms in barn and they are spic and span clean. 30 amp service and water for our LQ trailer on level ground. Best to text prior to arrival to ensure you turn into correct barn drive. Easy turn around at stable. Highly recommend.". . . (3/29/21) - "This is a wonderful horse motel, with a wonderful hostess! Elaine met us on arrival and her property had many options for our horses. We chose a wonderful pasture with a shelter, but her barn has great stalls with the most amazing shavings. Elaine will make you feel right at home and your horses will be just as comfortable. Easy to get situated in our LQ trailer. Will definitely stop here when our plans take us along the gulf coast!". . . (11/3/21) - "The owners are the nicest people! Just don’t come in after a hurricane with a big rig, it gets very wet!". . . (3/22/23) - "As promised..this was my second stay at Green Acres...it felt like coming home again! Great facility with huge turnout for my horses - safe/secure fencing and stalls. Barn has a nice break room and easy hookups. Not far from the beaches so I will be returning for a week or so this spring! Great people!". . . (2/14/24) - "Beautiful place!! Large paddocks and very quiet where hook up is located. Easy to find and owners are very friendly. Will definitely stay here again!!!"
