Safety for her students and her animals is a priority for her. She knows her ponies/horses and assesses a new student for a good fit for both. My granddaughter trained with Ellian for about 5 years and attended summer camp also before she moved to college. I have attended many training classes over these years and I've enjoyed watching the development of her students during those years. I highly recommend Rosaire's for your rider. Nothing fancy but definitely fun and safe.

We are thoroughly impressed with Ellian at Rosaire's Riding Academy! We signed up our two kids for…read moreprivate beginner lessons and were immediately impressed with her style of teaching! Our kids learned more in her private lesson than any other lesson they've done in the past. She chose the perfect horses based on my kids' personalities and instilled an immense amount of self confidence in both of them right from the beginning! We feel blessed to have found Ellian and are excited to see all that our kids learned through her professionalism!

Went here based on yelp reviews and was not disappointed…read more The registration process was quick as I was renting a wave runner to take my daughter out. Went over the safety briefing and they lead you out of the channel to the gulf. They do not start the time until you arrive in the gulf which I thought was very cool. One note is no lockers for your personal stuff but they hang onto your license as a deposit and will put your keys with them. Overall, I was very impressed with this operation and will most defiantly be back.

The best was to learn about the mangrove and its creatures is through a local on the water tour, like a cruise. I highly recommend "Native Charter Company" -- family owned, native to the area, passionate about the Lemon Bay ecosystem, $25.00pp for one hour. They are licensed and take your safety seriously. Search them on Yelp, read my review plus pictures. TIP: wear sunscreen and shoes!!

I rented a jet ski from this company, but the experience ended in a situation that raises serious…read moreconcerns about how they operate. There was no clear or visible parking guidance where I parked in front of their location at 100 Circuit Rd. The only sign on the building directs customers to a side gate and says nothing about parking restrictions or towing. I also received no verbal instructions about parking when I made the reservation over the phone. At no point was I warned that parking in that area could result in my vehicle being towed. After my vehicle was towed, the company claimed there was signage elsewhere on the property, but it was not visible from where I parked and would not reasonably be seen by a customer arriving at their storefront. Instead of taking responsibility, they immediately shifted blame to the marina and towing company. At no point did they acknowledge that their lack of clear, visible parking instructions--both over the phone and on-site--directly contributed to the situation. Separately, the overall process felt rushed. I fortunately have prior experience riding wave runners, but if I hadn't, the lack of meaningful instruction and the speed at which paperwork was handled would have been concerning from a safety standpoint. To make matters worse, I was initially denied access to retrieve personal belongings from my vehicle and had to deal with the situation in extreme heat (around a 107°F heat index) with my two young children present. This was entirely avoidable. The lack of clear direction, combined with how this situation was handled afterward, is a serious red flag.

They even offered to give me a tour in case I wasn't sure where I wanted to go, which I really appreciated. The Pedal Yak itself was super easy to use. My husband is an avid fisherman, and he immediately said this would be a fantastic way for him to fish since the pedals leave your hands free. We both loved it. Overall, the service and equipment were excellent. Highly recommend this company if you're looking for a fun, smooth, and stress-free kayaking experience!
