Great for horses

Located across from Mystical Horizons. Spots are $10 plus $5 per horse. Individual corrals for horses plus hay and water provided. Spots are okay next to trees but not really shaded. 16 miles of trails one which goes to Strawberry Lake Campground. AMAZING trails. Non-potable water, toilets and campfire rings. Little to no cell reception (We had 1 bar). Only 1 other camper with us during the weekend. Very quiet. No reservations.
