Beaver Creek Equestrian Camp

About

Beaver Creek Equestrian Camp sits in the sandstone hills of Ohio's Appalachian foothills within Beaver Creek State Park. The primitive campground caters specifically to horseback riders, with 59 sites featuring high lines for securing horses and fire rings with grills for cooking. The camp provides direct access to 23 miles of bridle trails that wind through 2,722 acres of diverse terrain including forests, bottomlands, and ridges along the Little Beaver Creek gorge. The trail system follows the Little Beaver Creek, designated both a state and national wild and scenic river. Riders encounter historic remnants of the Sandy and Beaver Canal, including lock structures and lock keepers' houses dating to the 1830s-1840s. Trail difficulty varies from gentle slopes with groomed surfaces to challenging terrain with steeper grades and water crossings. Facilities are primitive in nature. Vault latrines and a shelter house serve the camp, but there are no showers, electric hookups, or RV water connections. Well water may be available on a limited basis to fill small containers up to 5 gallons, but campers should plan to bring their own potable water. The camp accommodates larger rigs with adequate space to park and turn around horse trailers.
