Green River Horse Camp

2 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Hikers staging trips into the Mt. Margaret Backcountry area will find Green River Horse Camp a functional base, with maintained sites a short drive from multiple trailheads in Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Each site has flat ground for tents, a campfire grill, and a picnic bench. An outhouse is on-site. The campground sits near the Green River but reviewers note no water access at the immediate sites. Crowds run light, pets are not permitted, and bugs can be a factor in the surrounding area. This camp works best for hikers who need a no-frills overnight stop between trail days.

Dark and enclosed

Arrived here on a Sunday afternoon and was empty, with a few cars that appeared to have been left. Odd vibe! All the spots looked great however, just felt a bit unloved and off the beaten track. It was shrouded by trees but the sites themselves weren’t hidden from eachother.

Quite, clean & close

My friend and I were hiking a bunch of places in the Mt. Margaret Backcountry area and weren’t equipped on this trip for dispersed camping, so this place was great. Really short drive from a bunch of nearby trails. Plenty of maintained camp spots. Flat ground for tents, campfire grill, picnic bench, and an outhouse.

The area in general is pretty buggy, but there’s no water in the immediate vicinity which probably helped.

Pretty quite when we camped, only 2 other spots occupied.
