We stayed on site 12 which has a pens for the horses to stay in which was great. We havent been to this camp in two years because of bad experience with the metal stall horses had to stand in. The camp was very clean but had several non horse campers in it riding bicycles. The trails had several trees down but able to cross over. The trails had a lot of number 4 rocks on them which is very bad for horses feet so if have tender foot horses need have pads or boots. .

Ladies' room needs attention. Please put a simple picnic bench along wall (outside of showers) so we can put our stuff and keep our clothes dry. I had to put my bag of clothes on top of a sink to keep it off floor. There are 2 showers separated by curtains that face each other with a set of hooks in between. So hanging stuff there gets wet. I had to put bag on top of sink and hope it didn't fall into the wet sink (or on the wet floor). Also the right-hand (non-handicapped) shower leaked into the middle part of floor where the hooks are, and also was leaking into main floor outside shower. There were more RV campers there than horse campers when I went and it's difficult enough to find horse camps as it is, and very disappointing to see that non-equine folks were camping there. There's plenty of RV camping in Big South Fork, please leave the horse camps to those of us with horses that cannot camp in an RV campground. My site was nice and although somewhat challenging to back in due to a drop-off on the right as I was backing in, and also had to negotiate an uphill on the left when backing in as well as negotiating the curve. WIthout a second set of eyes it took me a while although I did eventually get in. Enjoyed the new corral panels that the Back Country Horsemen volunteered their time. I was expecting mostly dirt trails and there were large distances of 2 inch rock on the trails (quarry rock, not woods rock). However the 2-inch driveway rock (on a 12 mile ride, about 1/2 of that ride was on quarry rock) was unexpected and not enjoyable. Some folks said they thought that the rock would be covered over with crusher run (make it more friendly horses' hooves, a couple horses wound up with stone bruises due to that rock ) although I won't be going back until/if that happens. The woods trails were kind of ruined with that rock, aesthetically speaking.

We like the new horse stalls in many of the sites.

Love the new corral panel stalls on site 12 for stalls, but we were the only ones there because all the other sites have those awful tie racks so its kind of creepy being there by yourself, especially when somebody drives through headlights your camper around midnight. Id feel safer if they were more corral panel stalls there for more horse people to camp. Beautiful place, shame about the tie stalls.

Great scenery on the trails, especially along the river. Trails had a couple of trees across the trail since storms had recently occurred. Campground is nice and bathhouse is in good shape. As equestrian campers, we liked the horse panels that were at our site to replace the old stanchions. I hope the stanchions at the other sites in the campground are replaced with the panels in the future. We will be back next year!

Beautiful scenery along the trails but all the large rocks put on the trails for maintenance was very hard on the horses feet. Plus the metal stalls the horses stay in are dangerous for horses that want to lay down. The campground is nice and secluded and kept very clean. The camp host, Barbara, was very nice and helpful.

I had made a reservation for a site but when I got there it was occupied. I had to take an empty one and relocate to my original site. Supposedly a mix up by the camp host who allowed some one to change sites.
