Best Equestrian Camping near Agness, OR

109 Reviews

Cape Blanco State Park Campground on the southern Oregon coast includes a designated horse camp with 8 spots specially designed for equestrian use. The campground provides direct access to multiple horse-friendly trails through coastal forest and beach areas. Located about 34 miles from Agness, the park features clean facilities with running water, heated bathrooms, and hot showers that serve both the main campground and horse camp areas. The horse camp area offers proper space for trailer parking while maintaining the privacy found throughout the rest of the campground. The trails are well-maintained and suitable for horses of varying experience levels.

Boundary Campground in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest connects directly to the Bear Creek Trail system, popular among equestrians for its rolling terrain and stream access. Horses can be ridden on designated trails that follow the river, making water access convenient during rides. While more primitive than Cape Blanco, with only basic pit toilets and no hookups, the campground's $5 per night fee (or Northwest Forest Pass) makes it an economical option for horse owners. The campground remains relatively uncrowded even during summer months, providing a peaceful experience for both riders and horses. Sam Brown Campground, approximately 30 miles from Agness, offers additional horse camping options with primitive facilities and year-round access to bridle paths, though the horse camp area has reportedly become somewhat run down in recent years.

    Cape Blanco State Park Campground

    My favorite State Park in Oregon!

    I've camped at several state parks in Oregon and Cape Blanco is my favorite!  It is situated above a beautiful beach with an access road straight from the campground.  The sites are spacious and trees provide a good amount of privacy between the sites.  There is a wooded trail that leads to the nearby historic lighthouse where you can enjoy amazing views up and down the coast.  There are bathrooms with hot showers onsite, which is a plus after enjoying time at the beach. The campground offers RV hookups, but note the dump station was not in service during our visit in June 2021. This campground also has a horse camp with newer corrals, bathroom and miles of equestrian trails.  We stayed in one of the cute rustic cabins for half of our stay and in our camper van for the remainder.  Looking forward to future stays at Cape Blanco State Park!

    Cape Blanco State Park Campground

    Had an amazing time

    Had an amazing time at the beach. The breach access is a one lane curvy road kind of scary to drive down. The camp host was very helpful. We visited the historic Hughes house that is on the park grounds. It was built in 1898 and they have tours. The lighthouse is the oldest on the Oregon coast and you can get a tour of it. There are a bunch of trails for people and horses. There are 4 rustic cabins and 58 camp sites. The horse camp has 8 spots. It is 9 miles from Port Orford and 28 miles from Bandon. The camp area is in the middle of large trees so the wind doesn't really hit you. We were a long ways away from the bathroom but it was extremely clean. It is a first come first serve campground except for the cabins. Park in the spot you want them go pay the camp host. www.oregonstateparks.org

    Camp with a Lighthouse

    I have been camping at Cape Blanco State Park for years. This campground is located on the Southern Oregon coast outside of Port Orford, OR.

    The campground does not take reservations and can have low availability during peak summer season. Cabins are available to reserve. The campground has free showers, flush toilets, sinks, firewood for sale, and beach access. The sites have full hookups, fire pits, tables, and very long paved drives. A bikers' camp, group camp, and horse camp are also available.

    It is very windy here, but the plants surrounding the sites keep out most of the coastal wind and also provide plenty of privacy from other sites. Be prepared for cold weather and misty air. Dump station is under construction and not open for use right now.

    Cape Blanco State Park Campground

    Absolutely Stunning!

    This might be one of our favorite state parks along the coast of Oregon. Just a short detour off the Coastal Highway, this park offers some spectacular views, tons of nautical navigation history as well as a lovely campground tucked into the trees. 

    Like many state parks the campsites are extremely orderly, sparkling clean, reservable and offer electrical service.  We typically run exclusively on solar, but it was hard to do with a completely tree covered campground.  We appreciated the electrical hook-ups here.  Fresh water spigots are scattered throughout the campground, and a dump station will help you empty before getting back on the road.  The bath houses are clean, large, and lovely with flush toilets and hot showers.

    We rarely make reservations, but we found a couple open sites in the middle of the week. Registration with the very helpful camp hosts was easy. We had to move sites a couple of times to make our desired stay work out, but that’s the price you pay for not reserving. 

    There are plenty of recreational options nearby, including hiking, beach combing, horse trails and paddling. This part of the Oregon Pacific coast is unprotected so the ocean can be pretty rough for kayaking, but the nearby river might offer a more protected space to explore by kayak, canoe or paddleboard.   And, a hike out to the lighthouse at sunset is epic!

    Nearby towns along the coastal highway will offer a quick resupply for groceries and gas but the nearest town is Port Orford about 20 minutes away. It doesn’t offer much more than a convenience store and Dollar General. So, plan ahead.

    Cape Blanco State Park Campground

    A wooded Oregon Coast state park by the Pacific Ocean

    During a beautiful sunny April weekend along the Oregon Coast, campsites are difficult to find. We had to break our no reservations rule to snag the last campsite within the state park system along the Oregon Coast.

    It was nice, though, to have a nice site reserved for us but we just don’t like having to pay $8 to reserve a site. Online reservation system does make it easy, though.

    This is a beautiful campground with lighted wooded paths to the restrooms with free showers. Our site number A45 was very private next to the accommodating camp host. There is beach access via a narrow road but it is a spectacular one. We even saw a Jeep drive down to make its way along the beach which in Oregon is a highway. They were free range sheep near the beach so be careful when you drive down. It isn’t too far to walk from the campground and is very scenic.

    This is a lovely campground and we would stay again. We talked to a couple from Bandon just north who said they camp here once a month.

    Bullards Beach State Park Campground

    Loved this camp ground

    Bullard Bay has 3 loops, it is family friendly and two miles north of Bandon. The campground has a lot of shore pines and they protect it from the strong ocean breezes. It has Camping, fishing, beach combing, great sunsets and a famous Lighthouse. Some of the sites have water and electrical hookups. They also Horse camping and many hiking trails and bike paths. The corals can be used by day use also. The beaches are about 3/4 a mile away from the campgrounds. The path from the campground to the beach was too hard for us to push my wheel chair or the stroller. The easiest beach access is parking at the day use area, opposed to walking from your site. The restrooms were the cleanest I have ever seen at a park and all have plumbing (no outhouses). We loved this park. http://oregonstateparks.org/index.cfm?do=parkPage.dsp_parkPage&parkId=50

    Bullards Beach State Park Campground

    Another campground set back far from the sea

    Maybe it's because of the Tsunami's or something but all the campgrounds in OR are set back far away from the beach. This one is a pretty good hike away from the campground proper-so much so that few actually head out to it so you have the beach basically to yourself. There's huckleberries on the way and horses around and the bathrooms are basically fine and clean. Not much privacy at the sites as the hedges have been murdered by folks or rangers or kids....The place is your typical OR coast campground--no campsite is near the beach.

    Cape Blanco State Park Campground

    On the western edge of Oregon

    A campground the has access for everyone. Vehicles, hikers, bikers, equestrians all have a place here. 50 sites have electric hook ups. They are kinda close together but there is some privacy in between too. Only the group site can be reserved. Great hiking, beach access down a road, and a light house will keep you busy here.
