About this place
The Horseshoe Campground is a first come, first served campground located along the Williams Fork River. There are seven non-electric sites that will accommodate tents, trailers and RVs. Each site contains a tent pad, fire grate and picnic table. Additional facilities provided include restrooms and trash service. Most campsites lack shade as the trees were removed due to the mountain pine beetle epidemic. Popular activities include hiking in the nearby Byers Peak Wilderness, scenic driving and wildlife viewing. Drinking water is not available, so bring plenty of your own.
