About Kelsay Valley Horse Camp

This campground and trailhead is located along the Wild and Scenic North Umpqua River. Visitors will experience the river's rushing waters as they pass through lush high Cascade meadows. Spring arrives late in the high country and it is welcomed here with an explosion of colors. Purples, reds, yellows, greens, and white are arranged in a riotous bouquet. This site is designed to accommodate pack and saddle use as well as standard camping.

August 31, 2026 • Stayed at: B006, Loop: B

Wonderful camp for equestrians, maintained and hosted by equestrians. Approximately 50 mi of trails have been cleared this year, ranging from easy to moderate to difficult. Plenty of water all summer in the creek. Six of the seven sites are level and can accommodate large trailers (I have a two-horse gooseneck with ten-foot living quarters). If you have a horse, I recommend camping here.

The camp was great, the RR clean, trails were cleared and wonderful; thanks to OET and other volunteets. The directions on recreation.gov were WRONG and I wasted 2 hours backing my rig back out of the wrong road! Do not follow the driving directions at recreation.gov !!
