Eagle Ranch is an enormous horse campground. Easily over 100 campsites, all with electric hook-up.
There is an RV dump at the camp entrance. It doesn't have the proper connection for a sewer outlet. Instead it is just a wide open pipe with a cover, so it is rather stinky.
The campground has several cabins for rent as well as a shower house with bathrooms.
The campground is in good condition.
There is also an obstacle course here, but we didn't try it.
It rained most of our stay and when there was good weather, Ari wanted to be on the trails.
The horses are in good sized covered stalls, so they have protection from the rain. There are several turn-out areas where the horses can graze as well as a large round pen.
The trails are well marked and mostly in good shape. There are a few places where the branches were a bit low, but we managed to get through.
There are half a dozen barn cats that are hanging out at our trailer. On our grocery run, I picked up a box of cat food and I have divvied it up on paper plates. The cats are quite grateful.
The next morning as I step out of the trailer and look down - it's a cat trap!
Luckily, I was able to get out without any cat interference.
Jerry, the camp host, had a brochure in the office for a Spark Yoga studio. His daughter, Erin, is the instructor. Classes are first thing in the morning and in the evenings.
We attended two classes - one on Monday night and one on Wednesday night. They were excellent classes and I recommend trying to attend a class if you stay at this campground.
It's a great way to stretch out and relax after a day in the saddle.
Stockton is about 20 minutes from the campground. There is a nice grocery store there as well called Woods.
I also arranged massages at a small place called Tiny Hands massage. The massages were just OK, but it had been so long we didn't care. We were happy to get a massage.
There is a laundry next to the massage place. I went in to the use the bathroom there.
The laundromat had a group of Amish women and their small children, doing laundry.
They were speaking Pennsylvania Dutch. We smiled at each other behind masks, but that was the complete interaction. I have no idea how they got there - no horse and buggy outside - so they probably hired a driver and I am unclear how they are allowed to use modern washers and dryers under their religion. Maybe as long as they don't own them? There must be a loophole they are using.
