Description
National Forest
The Natick Campground is quieter than the Bessey Recreation Complex, and it has 20 corral for riding stock. This 17-unit campground has potable water, picnic tables, fire rings, modern vault toilets, and an outstanding view of the night sky. It is situated on the border of the hand-planted forest and the native grasslands, so it is easy to see both using Natick as your home base. No ATV or side-by-side riding is allowed from this campground. Looking to horseback ride off the roads? Here is a map of the gate locations near Natick (it's a work in progress).
