| I'm taking a week's vacation this year to ride a large part of the New River Trail in Virginia. I am looking for a horse camp or cabin/stable to rent for the week as close to the trail as possible. I have found Hungry Horse East and Iron Mountain Horse Camps (both in Ivanhoe) but those camps will require that I trailer my horse 30 to 45 minutes each way to the day parking lots on the trail. Does anyone know of any other horse camps or cabins/stables that are available for rent in the area? I am interested in staying in the town of Fries, Galax, Poplar Camp, Allisonia, Draper or Pulaski or any other point on (or very near) the trail. Any suggestions? |

 Location: Snow Camp NC | There is a place called Jubuilee park it is near Ivanhoe and on 94 and right on the New River trail. It is ran by the fire dept. I think. There also used to be a place called J&K quarter horses but I think it is gone now. |
