Best Equestrian Camping near Morley, MI

24 Reviews

Hungerford Equestrian Group Campsite offers horse staging areas with direct access to trails for overnight camping. Located in Big Rapids and part of Hungerford Lake recreation area, this destination provides primitive camping conditions specifically designed for equestrians. Trail riding opportunities connect directly to the Michigan Cross Country Trail System. Dispersed camping options throughout the area allow riders to set up near designated horse staging points. The campsite includes basic picnic tables and fire rings but lacks drinking water and toilet facilities.

Timbers Edge Campground accommodates horse owners with specific parking areas for trailers and access to nearby riding trails. Horseback riding trails connect the campground to the surrounding Manistee National Forest. Riders frequently use these routes for day excursions or longer trail experiences through varied forest terrain. Some trails follow old logging roads that offer wider paths suitable for horse traffic. Horse owners should note that while the campground is equestrian-friendly, it does not provide dedicated corrals or stalls, requiring campers to bring portable containment systems. The natural pond on property allows horses to cool off after trail rides. The campground's location provides good access to multiple trail systems but limited cell service in the area makes advance planning essential.

    Rustic camping at finest!

    Dispersed camping and camp sites available. There are horse staging areas and hiking trails. The lake is nice, small enough for a kayak/ no motor boat, nice.

    Nice for horses and hunting

    I went in November. Most campers were there on the weekend. Pit toilets, a pond, hot showers but shower room unheated, no dump station,nice size lots. A lot of horses and hunters. Price was good for electric and water. Nice for dog walking. Friendly managers. No cell service

    Double RR Ranch RV Resort

    Lots to do

    There is a river to explore and we always get a riverfront site. Rivers are just fun for fishing, throwing stones, canoeing. There is a campstore, Firepits, large trees, they do hayrides for kids, too. We enjoyed a reasonable trailride on horses thru a shallow part of the river. Very easy for inexperienced riders and kids. It is close to a town to get take out food if it rains. There are some larger vacation lodges to rent that ars nestled away in the woods, and a bunkhouse with rentals. My husband liked the golf course that came with renting spot. Seen lots of wildlife. Very relaxing time in our pop up not too far from Grand Rapids.

    Timbers Edge Campground

    Owner very rude and disrespectful

    Run down campground with rude disrespectful owner. We were attacked over something that was so trivial...a few hoof prints by our trailer where we we told to park. Horses did not dig or paw. She drove up to us and complained that they tore up her grass, which wasn't true. There was no grass to begin with, it was moss. Our ponied stood quietly tied to trailer as we saddled up and then when we came back from our rife and unsaddled.  We were with them the entire time....it was a short day ride with a friend who was camping there. Woman never asked or told us to picket. Normal function  for horseman is to ride from trailer. I Just couldn't believe it. Told woman we understood and would be leaving and wouldn't be back. She kept running her mouth. I told her to drop it and that again, we would leave and would not be back. Kept running her mouth, and Id had enough and told her to shut up.

    We had the BEST time with the kids!

    Your kids will LOVE this place-we had a blast! Train rides, Pool, Scavenger hunt, trails, bike rides, there just weren't enough hours in the day! We should have reserved an entire week! The facilities were spotless, there is a store, gated entrance, nice shady lots, friendly staff, everything was perfect, we can't wait to go back!

    Small sites

    The sites were very small at this campground. Our fire pit was so close to our trailer we didn’t dare use it. There is a small playground for kids but not much else to do. They advertise disc golf but there are only 2 baskets on the playground within a few feet of each other. Not an actual disc golf course. There are hiking trails but unfortunately we were not able to use them due to it being hunting season. Won’t be camping here again any time soon.
