What Guests Are Saying

Willis Knob Horse Camp offers a peaceful and secluded experience, with newly renovated and clean restrooms. While some horse trails were impacted by downed trees from a recent ice storm, the campground's rustic charm and ability to access the site freely are notable positives. However, improvements are needed in campsite maintenance, including electric and water functionality, as well as trail clearing.

All the faucetts were pouring water when we arrived. Had to call for maintenance to get Ranger to come fix them. Had to move camp. Lots of hard work. Now, campers don't think you should have these group camps. its not fair for 1 party to have to book 3 camp sites when they only need one. Also, you don't allow Golden Age passes on Group sites and that is not fair to senior citizens. Willis Knob is our favorite horse camp and is lovely, however; it's not being kept up and maintained. The outside toilet wouldn't even flush. Why can't you put a regular bathroom there that has a normal flushing toilet instead of that nasty outside toilet that don't work half the time and it stinks.

Awesome spot tucked away from civilization. Campsites are level and shady with full hookups and a short walk to the bathroom. Would definitely return!

Nice Equestrian campground. I have been here 5 times and have met mostly friendly people. Wish the bathrooms had showers and running water though.

The camp was very clean this time, vault toilet clean, horse manure cart mostly clean....however the water is still leaking at campsite 8, making it a very wet site. Luckily we had a hose to divert the water into the woods.
