Wild West Campground & Corral

We've camped at Wild West several times and always enjoy it. If you want a party place, this isn't for you. However, if you want peace, quiet, good neighbors, and a good campfire come here.

What I love: Free hot showers, Friday fish fry in the lodge, generous firewood deliveries, peace and quiet, owners on-site, large level sites, horses that love carrots, and lots of adventures close by (a pottery shop, a glass making shop - with classes, the chain-o-lakes, and horse rides on-site).

Call outs: Not a loud party place (although families and fun are encouraged), no golf carts or ATV's allowed, no bar, no pool or pond (although there is a playground and VB court and Hartmann Creek's Beach is close by), the store mostly has souvenirs, soda, carrots, and ice cream, so it won't have your last minute "I forgot" kinds of things. That being said, they very first time we camped, our power cord was too short to reach the box (nice, big sites). Jay offered to loan us an extension cord or change sites. He has since redone most of the sites so the power boxes, water, and sewer are all within easy reach.

If you are thinking about camping for a weekend and trying it out, I would encourage you to do it. There are lots of pull-through sites, shaded sites, sunny sites, any kind of site you like. Not sure what is what? Given them a call!

Hope to see you soon!

The first thing was we booked sites 3&4 as it's posted on the website because our friends were staying in a rental camper and we wanted to be close to them, unfortunately the sites changed, when we got there there was sites 1 &2 which weren't on the map, so we were two sites down from our friends, that was a bit inconvenient. As it shows on the map I think 1&2 should have been our sites but we didnt say anything much. 2nd our friends rental camper was full of Asian beetles and the fridge was filthy, luckily our friends are prepared and cleaned the camper before putting anything in it, there was an outside kitchen but it was not accessible, they came and locked it, so just an FYI if you rent a camper there do not expect to use all features. I do have to say Jay was a huge help with our slideout issues and that was greatly appreciated and if we had said something more about the sites being different it may have been resolved, everyone was kind. The trail ride was amazing! Our trail guide was great! And the horses were great one was a bit sassy but gave us a fun story and we learned horses are so much like people as far as personalities lol.
All in all we had a good time, it was a bit inconvenient for our group meals not being close to each other, we made it work. The horses were my favorite. Also be aware if you don't have a bathroom in your camper the shower house is a bit of a walk.the campground is very quiet.

Suggestions: update the campground map on line.

I am a very experienced rider having been on horses my whole life. So I drove with a friend 2 hours to ride here because it looked wonderful and a steak dinner was included. However when we arrived, the man checking us in was rather rude. He started out by informing us that we would not be getting our steak dinner because he was not prepared. Then, out of the 15 or so people that were there, INCLUDING MEN LARGER THAN ME, ONLY my friend and I were singled out and asked to get on a scale. Now I am not a large person, in fact I am a professional belly dancer. However despite just coming from a yearly Dr. visit and full well knowing that I am definitely NOT over 240, this man made me feel like shit and said I wasn't allowed to ride because I am too big. He then went further to refuse to give me a refund because said I knew I was over 240 when I signed the paper. And I did know what I weighed and it certainly was not over this limit. I was just at the Dr.s office and I certainly did not gain 15 lbs overnight. I left without my money and feeling like total shit because of this treatment. I weighed myself when I got home and I was definitely UNDER the 240 limit. The following day a male friend of mine took someone there on a date. He is a MMA fighter and well over the 240 weight limit and was still allowed to ride. If they are concerned about the horses doing too much, then maybe they need to get more horses and rotate them more often. Attaching a photo of me so people can see what their over 240 looks like.
I used to recommend a lot of people here, but never again.

Wild West campground was legit everything we could have asked for. The owners are beyond amazing, friendly, helpful, and just all around awesome. We had a pull through site for our camper, easiest setup ever. The campground is extremely clean, the twigs and branches were all picked up and put in the fire pits. Wood delivered right to our site.

We did horseback riding and the two girls who took us out were amazing knowledgeable and just great to talk with. We saw so many deer along our trail ride and they just followed along.

Nice big playground for littles, we have a four year old boy and he went off road his bike and played all weekend. WE WILL BE BACK!

A Peaceful and Welcoming Retreat!

We absolutely loved our stay at Wild West Campground and Corral. The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful and welcoming, and the entire campground was beautiful and very well maintained.

The staff was Welcoming —everyone was great and super helpful. All the other campers made you feel like you were there every day neighbor. We really appreciated that they delivered firewood right to our site, which was such a nice and convenient detail!

It was nice that all the horses and other animals were friendly and well taken care of. We also saw that they run a great horse camp for girls. The campers always looked like they were having a blast with fun activities.

I would totally recommend this campground and camp to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway!
