Ken the camp host is very helpful and flexible. He got us a new site when the one I reserved wouldn't fit our rig, was helpful with trail maps and general information. Campsites are nice, well maintained. Wish we could have a fire, but that's the way it goes in the Northwest at the end of summer!

Ken is an awesome host. Trail to Cooper Lake beautiful. When using this camp, your horse will be in the corrals, away from your camp site. Corrals are large and well made. There is also water there. You will need to transport the feed.

Clean and comfortable for both campers and horses. Ken is a TERRIFIC camp host. Very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. We all loved it when he shared some of the history.

Great camp and camp host. Liked the horse manure bin.
Reservation fees seemed odd. With America the Beautiful pass, cost was $41 for 3 days and $19 for the 4th day which was reserved separately due to my misunderstanding the website. Sun thru Wed night.
Sorry the camp closes near the end of Sept. Back next year!

Excellent. Clean and well-run. Only complaint is the camp closes before the very BEST time of year! Please please please stay open into October, which is a wonderful time of year to ride that area

Very nice equestrian campsite. The corrals are sturdy & nicely sized, with water easily accessible. The campsites are tight for larger rigs, but have a nice layout & plenty of shade for even the really hot weather we visited in.
