Layton Hills Horse Camp - Washington

Right now we are at Layton Hill Horse Camp.


No electric or water hook-ups for the RV.
Cell service is spotty. There is water for the horses, but just one source, so you have to fill your bucket/pail and then haul it back to your campsite.
They have a HUGE horse playground - otherwise known as an obstacle course. I am hoping to play with my horse there this morning before we go on the trails.

The corrals in the campsite where we chose are not well secure. The panels are basically just leaning against each other and secured with chains at each corner. This morning around 3:30 am we heard a bunch of noise and it turned out my horse, Mercutio, had figured out how to undo all the chains and push a panel out far enough to create an exit. He had escaped his corral and was now busy eating as much grass as he could shove down his throat before he got caught and returned to the corral. I caught him easily and we got him secured in his corral. Just glad our trailer is right next to them, so we were able to hear the commotion and get Mercutio caught before he wandered too far.

Not all the campsites are the same. They all have picnic tables and fire rings, but be sure to check the corrals as some are better built than others. We picked this site because it had the best cell reception, probably not the criteria we should use in the future.
