PLEASE REMEMBER and inform any guest you have:
Be aware of the county's entrance/exit rule and timetable.
The road into camp is narrow and regulated by one-way traffic control-that way you don't meet someone coming towards you!
You may enter on the hour, until 20 minutes past the hour. For example 3:00 p.m. until 3:20p.m.
You may exit the camp on the half hour until 20 minutes past the half hour. For example 10:30 a.m. until 10:50 a.m.
There is a clock at each gate and they are synchronized. Go by the time on these clocks not on your own watch. If you are early go into Sam Mc Donald Park and wait in the parking lot before going up the hill to the horse camp, or go ¼ mile past the gate to a large
turnaround /parking area on your left. Do not park at the gate blocking the road!
Please re-close the gate.
Suggestion : Some people unload at the Sam Mc Donald parking lot and pony their horse up to the camp and drive truck and trailer into the camp without the horses because of the steep grades into the camp.
