About Wash Creek Horse Camp

What sets Wash Creek Horse Camp apart is its specialized appeal for equestrian campers, offering a serene hardwood forest setting with direct access to the extensive trail system of Pisgah National Forest. Designed as a small, single-site group facility, it provides essential features such as hitching posts, a vault toilet, and a fire ring, catering exclusively to nature enthusiasts traveling with horses.

Located just a 20-minute drive from the North Mills River Recreation Area and about 45 minutes from Lake Powhatan, this campground is ideally positioned near excellent hiking, fishing, and multi-use trails where horseback riding is a highlight. The trails vary in difficulty, making them suitable for both casual riders and experienced adventurers. Being nestled within the Pisgah Ranger District also ensures proximity to iconic outdoor experiences, with Asheville and Brevard less than an hour away.

Wash Creek Horse Camp offers a rustic and tranquil retreat for equestrian groups seeking a quiet escape into nature, with the added convenience of accessible trails and nearby attractions for day trips.
