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!!

Very nice, full hookups and concrete pads were a great improvement. Make reservations early as they seem to fill up fast.

Campsites are awesome. You did an amazing job with setting them up. Flat concrete pads for easy set up then plenty of space for camp, cars and equipment. Full service is a must, Thank You!!
