Campground was clean, but not shaded. You parked in the open. There is not water at your campsites. There are only three marked trails, one of which is a very easy trail. Did not run across any real water crossings, just a couple of streams. Staff was not very friendly. We had their Saturday night chicken meal for $12 and although the food was good and you received a nice size piece of chicken, you only received a tablespoon size serving of the sides. You had one to two small bites of each side. The dessert was a boxed cake with cool whip type of topping and a very small square serving. Very disappointed in the meal. Although the stalls were very well built, many of the horses in the camp were very unsettled in them. They are totally enclosed on three sides so the horses cannot see each other. The gate to the stalls for some of the barns have bars so the horses cannot hang their head out, so we heard many horses screaming all night and kicking the stalls trying to see their buddies. They seemed to be more nervous and stressed in these type of enclosed stalls. The up side was that it rained and the stalls stayed totally dry. Also, the stalls are cleaned for you, which was a great treat. The young men that cleaned the stalls were very nice. |

Wonderful owners, accommodating staff, nice campground with several shady sites. Nice stalls, but they can get wet when it rains. Firewood, shavings, wheelbarrows and fork are provided. Trails are very scenic with several really nice water crossings. These people run a grat horse camp. Only drawback is that there are only 4 marked trails. There are some in the adjoining forest, but you have to figure them out without a map. Have been there 3 times so far and will definitely go back.
