It's always a pleasure to stay at Frank Russell horse camp. Nice sized camping pad. I do wish that the ends of the pads were wider to allow users to back into their sites without running over the grass, especially when it is muddy.
Stalls are usually clean, although now and again, some users do not clean them, or the area around their trailers prior to leaving.
All in all, a great place!!
