About Hunter Campground

The camp hosts were wonderful! Not happy with the fact that non horse campers are allowed to stay there. There are many campgrounds in the area that do not allow horses and when they stay in a horse camp, that limits availability to people with horses who would like to camp and enjoy the area.
