Trail Description: Best kept secret around! Miles and miles of trails to ride on, in unlimited choices of loops. Longest official trail is 12 miles, but truly, the choices are endless. Footing mostly grass or sand, with only a few areas of deep sand, mostly perfect footing. Extremely well-marked, with road signs at every intersection, lots of highly visible blazes through the woods. No worries about getting lost here!
There are three campsites, two are smaller but have easy access to restrooms and shower (according to website, I've never looked for it), one is a larger group site by the fire tower that actually has 3 gravel pads and lots of extra yard space. A central water spigot in the group site, no electric, no specific horse facilities but there are numerous trees to highline. Management is equestrian-friendly!
