Briefly about the general area:
Not enough hours in a day to enjoy this place. Hellion Canyon
is a nice location to pop by close by; do visit Boulder Creek if you're here at Horse Creek Trail.
Kozy Kove Marina is a splendid local campground; don't leave Horse Creek Trail without first paying a visit to Cold Spring. A journey to Klickitat Spring will fill your spirit
with great feelings; taking a little journey to nearby Grassy Point is a good idea. Be careful coming to the Coast Ranges, you might not ever wanna return home again. Barclay Meadows is a delightful location to stretch your legs a bit, and swing by Gold Creek it's a brilliant site
to stop at.
Yeah, come up here to the Coast Ranges for a good time. Happy Landing RV Park and Marina is a great campground nearby, and there's whitewater on Alsea River for all you adrenaline junkies. There's a magnificent forest right next door to Horse Creek Trail called Siuslaw National Forest, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Drift Creek.
