The St Croix State Forest Tamarack River Horse Campground sits within Minnesota's extensive state forest system, operating seasonally from May through October. This equestrian-focused facility provides designated camping areas for visitors traveling with horses, featuring the infrastructure needed for overnight stays with livestock. The campground's location within the state forest offers direct access to the trail system that connects to broader riding opportunities throughout the region.
Horse campers will find this facility serves as a staging area for multi-day trail rides through the surrounding forest lands. The nearby Boulder campground offers an alternative for those camping without horses, located less than two miles away for mixed groups with different accommodation needs.
