This is an Oregon Department of Forestry operated campground. In 2006 the Oregon Department of Forestry partnered with the Silver Falls Chapter of Oregon Equestrian Trails and other local volunteers to design and construct this campground and the trail system surrounding it. Volunteers donated nearly 2000 hours of service to assist ODF in creating this recreation opportunity. Since then, the Santiam Horse Camp and Day-use Area has served many recreationalists from near and far. In 2020, the Labor Day Fires severely impacted the campground and its surrounding forestland. After a yearlong closure, the camp reported in the early summer of 2022. Today, the camp is located in a partially burned forest setting and is the starting point for a system of non-motorized trails for horseback riders, bikers and hikers. Trail users travel through miles of diverse forest with clear streams and unique geological formations.
This is an Oregon Department of Forestry operated campground. Campers must bring a minimum of one pack or saddle animal to stay in horse camp corral sites. Two vehicles are included with campsite fee. Additional vehicles are $5 per night, payable at the campground. Fire Restrictions Information - Throughout the year, as fire danger changes, the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) changes public use restrictions which impact the public's ability to have fires and other fire-related activities. If you will be staying at Santiam Horse Camp and are unaware of current fire restrictions, please call the Santiam State Forest office at (503) 859-2151 or visit the ODF Public Use Restrictions website, https://gisapps.odf.oregon.gov/firerestrictions/PFR.html, for up-to-date information about fire restrictions. Please protect the Pacific Northwest from invasive species by obtaining or purchasing your firewood at or near your camping destination. Firewood can carry insects and diseases that threaten the health of our western forests. You can make a difference by buying and burning your firewood locally. It is illegal to bring firewood into the state of Oregon from a state outside of the Pacific Northwest (OR, WA, ID). Certified heat treated firewood can be brought into Oregon from states outside of the Pacific Northwest only with proper documentation (ORS 570.720).
