FREEPORT, GRAND BAHAMA ISLAND- Pinetree Stables, home to 21 horses and 73 rescue cats, is officially open and ready for business, just one month after Hurricane Matthew hit Grand Bahama Island.

Unlike many of the traditional tours on Grand Bahama Island, Pinetree Stables offers the opportunity for guests to have a more personal experience, through customized eco tours.

The trail, which allows visitors to ride through a pine forest with castle views, and gallop along cool dense hardwood coppice dunes and ocean views of Williamstown, will take anyone's breath away.

According to Linda Buchanan, owner and trainer, most persons who book the tours are looking for some sort of spiritual relief or connection with the horses.

The horses, which are Appaloosa breed, were all born in Buchanan's lap, only to be nurtured and trained to embrace the island environment.

In fact, both Buchanan and Chris May, trainer and tour guide, practice Parelli natural horsemanship, and made a lifetime commitment to their horses as the preservation of the breed and humanitarian efforts are truly most important.

According to Buchanan, "The horses are fit and well! The trail is open and we are ready to keep on going."

On Monday, November 14th, the Pinetree Stables catered to the first customers post Hurricane Matthew.

The group consisted of four persons who, as soon as the tour began, would learn more about the landscape and history of Grand Bahama Island, and indulge in their love of horses.

Furthermore, those who take part in the specialized tours at Pinetree Stables will quickly realize how much the experience would impact the soul via the tranquil environment and engaging lessons.

As Pinetree Stables encourages a more intimate two-hour learning experience, the company has committed to accommodating small groups- totaling four – six persons. Tours are $165.00 per person and can only be booked via email.
