This is now my Favorite Equestrian Horse camp. Sites are very nice, good size with a fair amount of woods between them. The views are Amazing! The trails are very well marked. A Huge thank you to Heidie McDonald for all the work and personal time involved in marking really great trails. I had a wonderful time riding trails over a 3 day weekend!!

Great camp grounds. The DNR personal were extremely helpful when filling in the info card for the camp site, and for getting my state park pass.

I have been here twice this year. In May we were the only campers at the entire campground. We chose the buddy site in the far left corner which gave our two 3horse rigs plenty of room. The sites have fire rings, manure bunker, vault toilet and a hitching post at the restroom as well as a hand pump for water. The trails are basically 2 tracks and we did run into jeeps, dune buggy and dirt bikes on the trails but everyone was respectful to us and the horses. The trail map was pretty easy to understand. In July I stayed at a single site which was easy for me to back my 19ft trailer into. Please note - there are not picket posts at every site to the right (single digit sites). Be sure to check! Thankfully my site had them. There is vault toilet on this side of the campground and a manure bunker. Most of the sites were occupied. The trails were very rocky this time and we had to ride on the shoulder/bank most of the ride. We only ran in to a couple jeeps which were very respectful.
