Q: “Can I use my ATV/dirt bike/side by side?”
A: No, the use of all ATV-type vehicles is prohibited in the campground.
Q: “Do you have to be a member to use the trails?”
A: No, the trails are open to the public; however, they are designated for horse and rider use only, in line with the horse camping rules.
Q: “Can I bring my dog?”
A: Dogs are permitted, but in the campground, to respect other campers, they must be leashed at all times. On the trails, they can be off-leash, but they should have a good recall and not disrupt other horses.
Just a friendly reminder: just because your horse(s) are okay with it doesn’t mean everyone else’s horse(s) will be. Please be mindful of others.
