Hodges Horse Park, near Hodges, AL

I loved this place. This campground is owned by the town of Hodges.They have right of ways across private property.The campground had all pull thru spots. Clean showerhouse, they haul off your manure each morning after you fill their muck bucket in front of your stall. The trails are well marked, some are challenging in spots around the rock formations with some alternate routes around tough spots. They have a horse taxi service to take you out so you can ride the trails farther from camp. Lots of waterfalls and areas with huge rock formations. One trail follows a river for a long way. There are also some hiking trails. I loved it there and want to return soon.

I spent 7 days here recently. The campground is just ok. Most sites are out in the sun and close together. They do have water and electric at each site. We used their dump station while leaving. Their covered stalls are too small. They also have uncovered gate pens available. The trails were mostly good, I had some trouble at first following the map because there are lots of trails close together. I ended up using a compass to orient myself and my GPS.Some trails have nice rock formations. The Rattlesnake saloon attracts customers from around the world. It is an interesting place to visit and gets loud on the weekends. I would visit here again but I left there and went 35 miles farther south to ride at Rock Bridge Canyon and liked it much better. Better trails and better campground.
