Horses are as much a part of the culture and landscape of Spring Island as oyster roasts and Live oaks. Equestrian having been an integral part of the Island since the 1700s, Members can ride the exact trails that Mr. Walker and guests rode after a successful quail hunt over 100 years ago. Wide paths and dirt roads allow travelers to ride three abreast with their dogs running ahead, hitch up at Bonny Shore where lunch is served and continue on through miles of varied eco-systems and past sweeping Lowcountry vistas. A busy social hub in the mornings where riders of private horses, and those taking advantage of the Club horses, gather in shared appreciation for this active South Carolina equestrian community. There are 10 homesites on Spring Island that are designated equestrian properties, some yet to be developed. Others can board their horses at the Spring Island Equestrian Center alongside six Club horses full of personality.
