Campground Host!

Post by ouachita hiker on Sun Aug 24, 2008 5:32 pm

Well I have a new hat and title here at the Horshoe Bend Campgound. Janet and I are now the campgound hosts!
We won't have many duties involved but we will have a choice location to live and have our spot and utitiles for
free! The other host just took up and left a little over a week ago to points unknown. Any way we are in the process of getting ready to move the camper to a new spot. Probably will be Friday afternoon or Sat. If any of you guys want to come this way, this is a great jumping of point for the Caney Creek Wilderness and the Eagle Rock Loop, just let me know. There isn't really a reservation system but we do it for the scouts and I will do it for any of you. This camp ground isn't used much except during the hunting seasons, esp. the modern gun hunts. And there is a large pavilion.

Guys I believe that it takes us aprox. 30 to 45 mins. from the Caney and the ERL areas. This is a great jumping
off point. Let me know that you are coming and I will researve you a spot.
