Made our annual trip to Elkins Creek again. Stayed 12 days this time. Our favorite place to go. Great campground, GREAT trails, GREAT hosts (Rick and Jill). We have made friends there that we see every year now.

Traveled once again to southeastern Ohio to Elkins Creek horse camp and once again had a great time! The weather was perfect this year, only an hour or so of rain all week. The weather was warm and sunny. Rick and Jill are the best camp hosts, very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the area. They work very hard to keep, maintain, and build new trails in their area, the Wayne National Forest (hope this is right). They were working on building a new trail while we were there. Their trails are so nice to ride. The terrain varies. They are well marked. If you like to gait, there are numerous sections to do so. Some beautiful scenery. I could go on and on. Needless to say, it is a great place to go and we will go back.

We stayed at Elkins Creek for the first time during the first week of October 2014. The campground is nice and open, easy to maneuver large rigs. The trails were beautiful and very well maintained. If you ride gaited horses, there were many great places to move along. Had quite a bit of rain while we were there (and double rainbows, too!), but we got in some very nice rides even on some of the rainy days. We didn't even get to ride all of the trails so will definitely go back. Rick and Jill are very friendly and helpful. My husband really liked the massage, too. They are doing a great job with the trails and working to make more.
