There is plenty of space near the picnic
shelter on the river for individuals, groups or families who prefer primitive tent camping. Pictured below is
the new picnic shelter with oil lamps, a brick charcoal grill at the far end, and a large
brick fire ring with rustic seating. Please be prepared to pack out your own trash - dumpsters are not provided because
they attract hungry critters! Click on this link to view a video clip of the river next to the primitive group camping area.
TRAILS Click on this link to take a virtual trail tour - turn up your sound!
We do not rent horses to the general public.
However, riders with their own horses are welcome to trailer in and use the arenas, trails, and picnic areas
for an introductory grounds fee of $5/horse. Trails will be temporarily closed during very wet conditions
for the protection of riders, horses and natural resources. Trails may also be closed during event weekends and on a few managed
hunt days. Day riders must call first
to confirm trails and facilities are open, let us know the approximately time of arrival, have a signed waiver on file, bring
proof of negative coggins, and agree to abide by all ranch and trail rules. Links to the downloadable trail rules and the
trail map are listed above. Due to mountainous terrain on some trails, use of a breast collar is
highly recommended! Please indicate if you would like to ride in the indoor arena so it can be properly watered down prior
to your arrival.
