A four-night stay will be required for camping reservations during Memorial Day weekend, and three-night stays will be required for camping reservations during the Fourth of July and Labor Day weekends.

Cancellation less than three days prior to arrival results in a forfeiture of all fees.

NOTICE TO HORSE CAMPERS: You must have a HORSE ON SITE TO CAMP AT WILD HORSE EQUISTRIAN CAMPGROUND. 
Due to the inordinate number of reservations in previous camping seasons with our regular campgrounds, (the non-equestrian sites), many campers were looking and booking sites in the Wild Horse Equestrian Campground that do not have a horse. Even though the reservation site informs you must have a horse to camp at the Equestrian Campground. All horse campers who want an advanced reservation Starting April 1 will need to call the office to make those reservations. The office phone number is 785-246-3449. Please remember that to do an advanced reservation, the reservation must be done before NOON the day before arrival. We cannot do a one-night reservation for Friday and or Saturday. You must book both nights and you must call before NOON on Thursday. If we do not answer the phone, please leave a message and so we can call you back. Since the sites are now closed to online reservations the only way to know if something is open is to call. Again, we cannot make an advance reservation (horse(s) and camper not on site) the day of arrival or after 12 o’clock the day before. Just a note on cancellations, the policy is the same for equestrian campers and non-equestrian campers:

COVID 19 and its variants can still be a concern we still ask that all visitors continue to practice social distancing and wear a mask, especially indoors and in large crowds.  Maintain a safe space between yourself and others... Be aware of surfaces that are touched regularly, and remember they are only as clean or sanitized as the last person to use it.  Wash your hands with soap and water and use alcohol base sanitizer after touching these surfaces (bathroom door handles, self-pay station, etc.).
