Love the views and trails. The down side is it has a lot of old burn areas which could create down trees on the trail, but OET is often up there clearing them. The camp has no water spickets but the creek is close if you run out you can bucket some for your horses. It's quiet and the rangers have always been very nice and helpful.

The sign in process was terrible. There is no water at the camp (creek), The corrals were miss marked. I reserved #5 but when arrived 5 was in another place.. THEN because I only wanted two nights I ha to pay for 3 because it was a holiday.

Non-equestrian camper’s we’re using the campground in September to bow hunt from the road. Made for a nerve racking horseback riding. The park host allowed hunters to stay and ride their 4 wheelers the equestrian use only campground!

The web site states site 4 is a pull through which is not correct. So when we arrived we thought someone was in our site. Site 3 is the pull through. No water in the trough because it was not working. The trails were well marked and in great condition. Bathroom clean . Over all would go back if the water situation was better for the horses. Beautiful area!

It was a very nice campground. It was very hard to get my trailer into the sight. They have small post the line the driveway and the camp sites. Very hard to get around them. Even the smaller trailer my friend had was difficult to get around.
