Best Equestrian Camping near Agate Beach, OR

154 Reviews

Limited equestrian camping options exist near Agate Beach, Oregon. Dry Lake Horse Camp offers primitive camping accommodations for equestrians in the Siuslaw National Forest. The campground permits both tent and RV camping with basic amenities. No dedicated horse corrals are available at the site, so campers need to bring portable containment systems or highlines for their horses. Fires are not permitted at this location, and the campground lacks drinking water facilities, requiring visitors to bring sufficient water for themselves and their horses.

Mt Hebo Horse Trail Dispersed Campsite provides a free alternative for horse owners seeking primitive camping experiences. Located within trail access areas, this site offers minimal facilities but allows direct connection to surrounding horse trails. The campground accommodates both tents and smaller RVs with pets permitted throughout the area. Trail conditions can vary significantly by season, making advance research essential. Both campgrounds maintain policies requiring riders to pack out manure and follow Leave No Trace principles when camping with horses.

    Baker Beach Campground

    Tiny but close to the beach

    This is a little hidden gem as it is not well marked on maps or along highway 101. There are only about 5 campsites(not including the possible equestrian site on the other side of the parking lot), and they are not equally level, spacious, or private, but it is taken care of by a full time host and you are close to the beach and dunes. Be prepared for a hike through deep shifting sand dunes to get to the beach. And watch out for horse poo as this is a busy horse path the local stable takes to the beach. Expect some dust from the gravel road and lot. While here I took advantage of the rental stable and got to ride on the beach; pretty cool experience!

    Horse Creek Campground — Siuslaw National Forest

    Horse Camp

    Horse Creek is a great site for horse camping. Only two sites are for non-stock campers. The camp has no water or any hook ups but the corrals are pretty good except they can get muddy if manure is not carefully picked out. 

    The horse water trough is a short walk away from camp but does not have potable water. If users are not careful it can drain or not be usable so bring horse water. 

    The trails are wonderful!! But hilly so make sure your horse is fit or you are willing to take it easy. Many of the original overlooks are starting to be grown in but the forest is amazing!

    Dry Lake Horse Camp

    Hidden gem not for big trailers

    When all other nearby campgrounds were full, we came here. Great spot in between Florence and yachats. Close to heceta light house, right before sea lion caves, and close to hikes and away from crowds. Unfortunately it was full so we just dry camped for free down the road in a pull out. Corrals for horses, not a lot of water but pit toilets and away from road noise in the forest. The turn into this road from Highway is a sharp one and immediately uphill. Probably not for anyone towing large trAilers but if your skilled you can try it out.

    Baker Beach Campground

    Perfect for horses

    Very clean but tiny campground near the beach. Designed for equestrian use but no restrictions posted for other campers. Lots of trails, good turn around, tables & fire rings. No water but a pit toilet. I think Someone is living here but very clean and no trash. We came in between rain showers and it was just us and the other tent. It's a maybe 1/4 mile walk to the beach over dunes. Very lovely place.

    Horse Creek Campground — Siuslaw National Forest

    Secluded camping, close to beach

    Just south of Yachats, highway 101 makes a sharp turn with a steep drop, down to the beach. It might be the precarious position that keeps this campsite quiet -- it's unmarked and you'll miss it if you don't slow down. The sites are located about 3 miles up a dirt road. There are about ten spots, each with a corral for your horse if you have one. The thick forest of trees make each spot peaceful and private.

    Baker Beach Campground

    Small, low key, quiet campground

    Small (only a handful of sites) campground with a moderate walk to the beach. The campground host was very friendly! Most of the sites open up into a shared circular area but it still felt very private and nice! The walk to the ocean was through soft/deep sand (watch out for horse manure as there are horse tours happening nearby).

    Horse Creek Campground — Siuslaw National Forest

    Used to be one of my favorite horse camps. Destroyed!!

    This is a horse camp not a car camp. If you don’t have horses you should not be taking up a spot with horse corrals! OET horse group paid for all the gravel on road, put up all corrals, and fixed the water trough. It is not fair that people are taking up spots from horse people. We can not just take our horses into a car camp. The homeless are camping all over the roads making it hard to pull trailers by. They are littering and pooping all over the trails. The bathrooms are nasty & people drive in & out parking in the middle of lot making it so horse trailers can not get through. Not right! Keep this horses only!

    Horse Creek Campground — Siuslaw National Forest

    The Oregon Coast's Hidden Treasure

    After accidentally reserving the wrong campground, we were pointed in the direction of Horse Creek. Access to it is up an unmarked dirt road, about 10 minutes from 101. It's truly out in the middle of the woods, with campsites meant for campers with horses but it worked perfectly for our tent camping. Pay on site, no campground host. Vault toilets.

    Beverly Beach State Park Campground

    In the woods AND at the beach!

    I stayed a night because I needed a last minute getaway and they had site. Like most Oregon coast campgrounds, the summer months are very busy. The nature walk around the campground was nice and the trees in the park are beautiful and add to the totally "Oregon" experience of this campground. The access to the beach is easy to get to. Great park!
