My 2nd stay at Mane Gait Equestrian Center/ site#1. Was able to get off roads while 2days of bad weather passed thru.. Not far from Natural Bridge S.P.. Stayed here month prior when heading to FL. Close to main roads. No road noise, full AT& T signal. Thank you so much Sydney! I would definitely stay here again.

I enjoyed tent camping at Sydney‘s island. Property is beautiful. Communication was fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone who also love horses.

I love animals, so the idea of camping at an equestrian center was awesome. I found it when I was heading north on a long road trip but apparently, was driving into a snowstorm. This place was just off the highway easy to find. Everything was already covered in snow so it was hard to know where to park but the host’s brother in law saw I was a bit confused and helped get all set up. Sydney was also extremely responsive and reached out immediately. The storm passed and in the morning I was able to view the mountain range clearly - nestled on a hill. My dog enjoyed the snow and space quite freely - there were no horses in the stalls outside because of the storm but I did get to see them in the distance and on my way out in the morning. I really enjoyed it and would come back!
