Calico Junction Ranch
He didn’t give that good of directions to the camp. I didn’t feel comfortable so I didn’t stay there. He never refunded me either.

Great campsite and ranch!
This campsite was gorgeous! So much privacy and we were right next to the beautiful horses. The owner and farm worker were incredibly nice and welcoming. They helped us out when we locked the keys in the car, brought us anything we needed and took us on a beautiful horse ride on the property. I would 100% go back!

Beautiful forest camping site!
It was awesome getting to see the dogs and horses and have a relaxing night by the pond. It’s quiet and serene. There’s even horseback riding available (although we didn’t go on one)

Calico Junction Ranch
Cheap horseback riding.
It is a nice size ranch with 30 so horses for trail rides. We did not end up staying at the Ranch. We only stopped in and went for a short horseback ride as we were pressed for time.
It is a beautiful drive to the property, we have Verizon and had lost signal on the way out to the ranch. We were pulling our RV and had no troubles getting to the ranch. Once there we were instructed to park, as if we were going to be staying there, in a large grassy area with a few large piles of firewood around it. The first problem we noticed was when we got out of the truck was it smelled of poop horribly (not like horse manure but poop) once we were walking around we noticed many large piles of dog poop scattered everywhere in the grassy area, where I presume campers/RV would be staying.
We went for a one hour ride and learned a little about the horses. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable of the horses. There are steep hills covered in loose rocks which I was worried was bad for the horses legs as I could feel the legs of the horse I rode twist and stumble from the large loose rocks under his hoof. The ride was not spectacular in anyway just going through some steep hills and many of the same type of trees. They did have an old log cabin at the end of the ride that the kids got to write their names on, that was the only sight we saw.
One of the horses was coughing, another was passing gas, they seemed pretty old and possibly a little over used. Cheap horseback riding prices $20 per hour per rider, then you are encouraged to tip your guide (as they only get the tips). Not a bad place to visit but also not something to drive out of the way to go to.

Not for Pampered Campers! :D
We had a great time. I recommend it to my friends and family, and anyone else who would enjoy waking up to horses and beautiful country. We ate at the Rocking Chair Café, and the Southern Skillet in town more than once. Most of the folks there were locals and all seem to know each other. Great family atmosphere, and a big thanks to our host Jim and his very accommodating and helpful crew.
