Customer Reviews
Memorial weekend 2023, trails are in need of help. Lot of trees on trail, many small saplings bent over making trails impassable with out a saw. Our crew worked on several. Clear to overlook. River bottoms clear. Not clear to pine point either side. River was low. It was a nice weekend. Hoping state park will clear rest of trails.
These are some of the most challenging but fun horse trails in the state of Minnesota. This place is downright magical in the fall
Rustic camping near the tamarack river. With challenging horse trails, there is nowhere else like it.
Challenging trails but a pretty ride. Downfalls are the bridges with no sides and some are starting to fall apart. Seem like these trails are no maintained at all. Campsites are small and not level making it very difficult to get in if you have a large trailer.
Great place to camp and ride. Dogs are supposed to be kept at own campsite and on a leash. Absolutely *do not* appreciate male dogs pissing on my lawn chair and cooler. Generators are supposed to be turned off at night. I don't have or need one. I want to hear nature and have peaceful night sleep.
