We stayed at the Blackwater State Forest on the way home from Goethe in 2006.  It was a great place, as it had a several acre pasture where we could turn the horses out for a half hour or so before we loaded up the next morning so that they could stretch their legs.  It was great to see Bear running and bucking after doing the 100!  You're right, though, it was a ways off the interstate.  We still might stay there on the way back, just for the nice turn out opportunities for the horses, if nothing better comes up.

Blackwater State Forest in Milton is not far from there and has horse camping. Ride manager Christine Schiro of the Blackwater Boogie could probably give you directions, I think the horse park is called coldwater.

Hi folks,

We're heading to the Goethe ride (Dec. 20) in Florida, coming from E. Texas.  We'll be travelling on I-10.  Does anyone know of a good fairgrounds or something similar that would make a good stopover, perhaps somewhere around Pensacola, give or take a few miles?  We'll have 2-4 horses.  We'll be looking to stop over on Wed. the 17th on the way out, and Sun. the 21st on the way home.  Any input/advice would be appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Dawn Carrie
