Green Spot Equestrian Group

Set against the backdrop of Big Bear Valley and surrounded by soaring pinyon pines and junipers, Green Spot Equestrian Group Campground stands out as a rustic haven designed for equestrian enthusiasts and nature-loving groups. At an elevation of 7,224 feet, this single-site campground accommodates up to 25 people and 10 horses, offering direct access to premier trails like the Pacific Crest Trail and the Sugarloaf National Recreation Trail, which lead adventurers through stunning alpine landscapes.

The campground’s amenities are tailored to a rugged, unplugged experience, with vault toilets, multiple fire rings, and picnic tables. Five horse corrals and non-potable water for livestock make it ideal for equestrian campers, but there’s no potable water or trash service, requiring visitors to pack in and out their supplies. While Green Spot offers solitude and immersion in nature, it’s also conveniently located just a short drive from Big Bear Lake, where visitors can enjoy fishing, boating, and other water activities, providing a mix of adventure and relaxation.

Accessible only by a rocky road suitable for four-wheel-drive vehicles, this remote site offers a true escape for weekend getaways or group retreats. The stargazing opportunities, proximity to breathtaking trails, and authentic connection to the San Bernardino National Forest make Green Spot Equestrian Group Campground a unique and memorable destination for those seeking simplicity and adventure.
