Beautiful area to camp in! We can't wait to go back! Reservations made it easy to plan. I love that they are adding new corrals to the campsites too. Please add more if possible! That was a tremendous help for our group. However, I would prefer that the corrals come with your campsite (not a first come, first serve basis) so you know that you have a place to put your horses and that you won't have someone else walking through your camp to care for theirs. Currently, there are not enough corrals compared to campsites - assuming a minimum of 2 horses per campsite. While it is a horse camp, we found that many of the campsites are not truck and trailer friendly either. There are some trees that need to be removed for better accessibility (especially for site 1 and site 6 when hauling a 3H or longer gooseneck trailer - watch your turning radius!!!). Unless you are tent camping, some sites are very angled. For anyone planning to sleep in their trailers, we would recommend bringing blocks to level out trailers. The information center could use an update to the camp map, as well as information about the equestrian trails available. Marking a degree of difficulty, mileage and elevation gain for trails would be helpful too as many in our group included beginners and youth that are not highly skilled or ready for long distances, but also people that have never been to this campsite and don't know where to go in general. After the group left the next day, there was a trail my husband and I found that would have been extremely risky had the group come across it. It started out great but changed to a technical, narrow (cliff like) trail. Not wide enough to turn around or get off a horse. Had we been with most of the group, especially kids, beginners or even a novice horse, that trail could have been disastrous. Overall though, love the camp! Thank you so much for maintaining and designating an area where equestrians can camp and enjoy nature!

Campground was clean and tidy. Trails were clear. Well maintained campsites.

Little Lasier Meadows is a horse camp and yet non-equestrians had reserved at least 4 of the campsites and taken up the one first-come-first-served site as well. At least one of our equestrian friends was unable to reserve a spot because of the non-equestrians.

This is a horse camping area and there are very few places we are able to take horses. We couldn't get all the sites we needed, so several friends didn't make it up there with us. Just to find out that the horse campsites were full of non-horse campers, dirt bikes driving around the campsites and a few empty sites with no one in them. This horse campground is maintained by the Goldcountry Trail Council (an equestrian group). Something is definitely wrong here.

We had an excellent stay at the Lasier Meadows Horse Camp, 8/17-8/19/2023. Corrals are nicely built, fresh water available & restrooms are clean. We are thankful for such a nice place to horse camp. Thank You!!

Great campground, well-taken care of, beautiful location with easy access to PCT but without the noise of the more developed campgrounds adjacent to the reservoir.

@TamiR4064015 · Camped on Jul 28, 2022 at Campsite #7

This is an excellent horse camp. There are corrals at almost all sites. They are of decent size with the older ones being larger (near spot 8). The garbage is close to most of the sites making it very easy to clean up. Having the water pump centrally located in camp is a plus. More signage to help people new to the camp locate the water pump would be helpful. It is not easily viewed from the more distant camps and looks like it is part of site 8. The only downside for this camp was the number of non-horse campers occupying premium sites with OHV set ups. The ranger, Jerry, visited us in the camp and when we mentioned it he said it was just fine and they did it to be close to the roads. While it may seem like an ok thing the fact is that both of these camps (sites 11 and 1) groups could have camped at any of the other nearby campgrounds while horse campers on the other hand cannot. Horse campgrounds are not readily available and when they are blocked by non-equestrians it restricts this user group further. There needs to be great signage posted discouraging non-equestrians from using these campgrounds with education about shared space and the limited amount of space available for horse camping. Making the statement of how many horses a requirement to make reservations would help. That way at least equestrians would have priority. Otherwise this is a very nice and well maintained horse camp.

We love to camp here several times a year and were greatly disappointed to arrive at the horse campground with our horses on Oct 3rd and find it filled with hunters and ATVs. The sign at the entrance to the camp said no ATVs ? The kids with the hunters were shooting their BB rifles by my horse’s coral, scaring and endangering my horse. They started their Generators and ATVs up at 5 AM every morning. How can we enjoy our horse rides in fear of getting shot ?? Many of the hunters said they come here every year. There were also bikes on the PCT trail. It’s just not right. I understand we may have to share the campsites with non-horseman but hunters driving ATVs in the camp is unacceptable in a horse camp facility. How can we stop this from happening again ? I never saw any forest service people and nothing about this on the website to warn us

We never found the campground, and even if we had, the smoke was so thick, we wouldn’t have stayed. The smoke was not the fault of anyone, but the directions need to be updated and better signage would help.

We booked a tent and RV site. I called and made sure we are able to bring RV and I was told yes. We drove 4 hours with a RV there. Upon arrival there is no one to check in with, no cell service to call someone. There was no RV plug ins. I was not made aware of not having the RV plug ins. We didn’t not stay there and left the site and found another site close to tahoe for our trip. Bad experience with this site. I do not recommend.

@RoxanneM627 · Camped on Jun 16, 2021 at Campsite #11

This is our favorite equine camping spot of all time. We love that giant beautiful meadow that abuts most of the campsites, the access to the Pacific crest Trail, and how you feel you’ve gone a long way out of town to have a wildland experience. It’s a fun to go to the reservoir and float around or fish. There’s been some years we fish directly from the creek in the meadow, and it doesn’t matter what time of the year we go; the beginning of spring summer or fall, it’s like a little slice of heaven every time we go. The biting flies were really bad this year, early spring, but that’s been the only drawback, ever!

For equestrians and camping there several good spots with corrals. But some of the sites are not good for the longer gooseneck trailers. The water pump will give you a workout 😊 During our stay there was lots of non equestrians (hunters with atvs ) they were quiet and very nice. However, one hunter was successful in killing a deer which our horses happened to smell the blood and it made them nervous and spooky....and these are horses that hardly ever spook.

The entire camp is absolutely beautiful ! Great access to PCT and other trails. The description on the Recreation.gov web site is not clear about the fact that there are only a total of 10 stalls, and the water is a pump style hydrant, and campers should bring a cart and large buckets to transport water to their horses stalls.

@DennisM466 · Camped on Aug 26, 2019 at Campsite #6

we love this camping location there are so few areas that you can camp with your horses. The riding is great and our spot is always reserved without any problems when we get there.

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
