What Guests Are Saying
Canebrake Horse Camp is praised for its cleanliness, polite camp host, and well-maintained campsites, making it a favorite for horse campers. Many enjoy the central location to trails and appreciate the quiet atmosphere. However, there are concerns about non-horse campers occupying sites, declining maintenance, and the need for more attentive camp hosting. Overall, it remains a beloved spot for equestrian camping despite some areas needing improvement.

Been camping here for years. It has its ups and downs, but overall it's my favorite place to stay with my horses.
I do think it needs to be HORSES only as the other campers have no clue how to safely behave around equines. It's a recipe for disaster having non horse campers in this horse campground.

great campground with easy access for the most part
many sites need to be graded to make them more level
men's shower water perfect -----women's too cold

Good camp for people camping with their horses. This is specifically a HORSE camp.

The camp host was non existent. I have been to this campground too many times to count. My campsite was filthy. trash in the firepit, beer cans, other non burning items. There were old piles of manure on my site and just basic trash scattered on the site. the restrooms were not clean, and on Sunday there was NO PAPER in the ladies room.
I cleaned up the site where my animals were, but i did leave the old piles of manure.
Further, i had an incident at camp where 2 intoxicated individuals were on my site, their dog was urinating on my items outside, rug, hay bag, etc.
When i asked them to leave it caused a huge altercation and the camp host Never appeared to help. We called 911 and the officer NEVER came either.
This is one of my favorite places to camp and i do not feel the changes made with rotating camp host has provided ANY positive change. You cannot rely on the current camp host for any assistance. The Rangers are not available and in this case calling 911 provided not assistance either.
I felt very unsafe during my recent stay.

I love camping there, but this time they had a control burn going on! The smoke was awful! They should have emailed us to let us choose to come another time! But they didnβt. It was a very bad experience! Not only is breathing in the smoke but our horses also! We had spent time and money driving to Canebrake. π₯π₯²

Nice horse camp. Did arrive to someone getting set up in our reserved site. If you do not have reservations, check the sign every site has showing if itβs booked or open. I can tell BCH Uwharrie has been busy! The trails were much better!

This is a very nice horsecamp. We had electric hooks up and the bathhouse was in great shape. There are a lot of spur trails so it is easy to get lost, but its a great place to camp and ride!

Throughout the year the Uwharrie National Forest performs prescribed burns. Some of these burns will be next to and around this recreation facility and may cause smokey conditions during the actual burning and for the days following the burns. Sometimes we do not make a decision until the very morning that we will be able to do the burn due to weather and staffing. If you have questions about the prescribed burning possibility please call the Uwharrie National Forest Ranger District office at 910-576-6391 for updated information. |
