    From the moment we arrived at Gold Coast Equestrian, we were met with such warmth and genuine…read morehospitality. We came by to inquire about lessons, and instead of it feeling like a quick stop, the staff made us feel right at home. The grounds are beautiful, well-kept, and welcoming -- you can immediately sense how much care goes into maintaining the space and ensuring a positive environment for both riders and horses. The team took the time to answer our questions, walk us through what to expect, and made us feel excited about the possibility of lessons. It's rare to find a place where professionalism meets such genuine kindness, but Gold Coast Equestrian is exactly that. If you're even thinking about riding lessons or just curious to learn more, this is the place to go. We left feeling not only informed but also part of the community already. Highly recommend!

    It's definitely a very pretty facility but if you are serious about lessons, I don't recommend this…read moreplace at all. Several of the horses have behavior problems. Refusing to walk. Desensitized to aids. They have you pay for the semester and the trainers are unwilling or unable to bring you along and are often involved in their personal conversations as if the private lessons you paid for were actually free. I was told by one trainer that my posture was fine. By a second that my posture was terrible while riding a sickly horse on a child's saddle repeatedly despite my objections. I had another horse run away with me. The next week that same horse did that to a young girl, with no interventions from staff. If you complain you will be met with fast talking nonsense.

    I came to this location as a chaperone, and both the kids and the parents had a lot of fun…read morelearning, seeing, and feeding the horses and ponies. We were given special cookies and carrots to feed them. We walked around, saw so many of them, and even got to pet them. It was a truly beautiful experience for the kids, and honestly, even for the parents! lol. Vine a este lugar como acompañante de una excursión, y tanto los niños como los padres nos divertimos muchísimo aprendiendo, viendo y alimentando a los caballos y ponis. Nos dieron galletas especiales y zanahorias para darles de comer. Caminamos por el lugar, vimos a muchos de ellos e incluso pudimos acariciarlos. Fue una experiencia verdaderamente hermosa para los niños, ¡y honestamente, también para los padres! jajaja.

    I've been riding at NSEC for a couple of months now (after switching from an unfortunate…read moreestablishment in Eastchester and prior to that riding for years in Virginia). The facility is on the CW Post campus of Long Island University, and I must say, it's run very professionally. All of the school horses appear to be healthy and happy, and the grounds are impeccable - safe and clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. My awesome coach is helping me sort through my anxiety after being thrown pretty badly about 6 months ago. She gives tons of positive reinforcement, is patient, and knows exactly what I'm ready for. Love her. They have a huge indoor ring as well, which is great for lessons in the winter/rain, etc. They have all sorts of school horses, so if you need to start on a pokey pony, they are available! I've seen all levels and ages riding out there. Little tiny kids to old people like me. I've taken away one star for two reasons: sometimes I'm in the ring with up to 3 other lessons, which can get a little crowded; and I wish that I could tack up the horses myself and put them back in their stalls. They have handlers that do that for you. They offer pay as you go half hour and hour lessons. I think they also offer 10 lesson packages, but that's way too rich for my blood.
