We were there for this years Sasquatch Music Festival, 2010. We were staying in the pop up in one of the electrical sites, across from the cafe. You guys do a great job. The cafe staff was a life saver after the shows. Sasquatch food is low quality and over priced, but you guys came through with high quality and a good value. We will stay with you on all our returns to the festival. Thanks again, specially you Dillon, you're the best.
WILDBURGER!!!!!!!My wife Jill and I came to your site after the first night of Sasquatch . . .
We were extremely tired from having been subjected to the all night rave that happened one row down from our tent at the Gorge "Premier" Camping.
Never again will we stay there, and thanks for your hospitality. We've stayed at Wild Horse several times in the past but it sold out instantly so we had to settle for camping with frat kids and addicts. Ugh.
I've joined the mailing list in hopes of scoring a spot for Dave Matthews over Labor Day weekend. If you accept bribes, let me know, as my wife and I used to own a wine shop. :)
Either way, thanks again. It was great being able to sleep the last two nights of the long Memorial day weekend!
Sincerely,
Paul Zawatski
I wish to extend a huge thank you from myself and my family for the warmth and hospitality shown by your staff this weekend. We were the couple who brought their 12yo daughter to her first festival, and we couldn’t have been more happy with our accommodations and the quality of the campground. From the moment we arrived we felt as if we were amongst friends.
Wildhorse is definitely on our “must-do-again” list.
Thank you again, and we hope your summer is a successful one
Best wishes

You don't see that anymore, I wanted to say THANKS for a great carefree weekend! We came from North Carolina and will be coming back!

Thanks again,I came to the Gorge for DMB over Labor Day weekend after wanting to go for 6 years and I thought a thank you was in order. I’ve heard the stories over the years and how everyone would rave about WILDHORSE, the food, the staff, the cleanliness, etc. but I thought that I was going to walk into “just another campground.” I figured there would be no way that WILDHORSE could ever live up to my expectations. I’m happy to say that it blew them away!!! From the moment I arrived at 2 am on Thursday night after traveling 16.5 hrs from NC and was greeted by a courteous, employee until I reluctantly woke up to a mass exodus on Sunday, I was impressed. My words can never do any justice to the experience that you, your family, and staff allow everyone to have and I cannot think of one thing I would do to improve anything. I honestly want to thank you for the extra little things you all do that keep us coming back. I mean who has heard of having the HONEY BUCKETS cleaned twice a day?!?!?! The concession stand makes great food by any standards- especially for a camp ground and the prices- although they appear steep- are a VALUE for the quality and quantity you get. If you’re lucky, you may even get some chilled Jager shots while waiting in line for your Wildburger. I could go on and on about how beautiful the grounds are kept, how nice everyone there is, and how easy you make it for all of us to have the time of our lives but I just feel my words fall short of telling you how much we- the DMB community- appreciate you. I just want to thank you for being a major part of the best weekend of my life and for helping to provide me one of the best experiences ever!!! I will never forget it!!! SEE YOU NEXT YEAR AT LABOR DAY!!!!! Again, my words cannot convey my feelings but honestly, you have something very special going on at WILDHORSE and I hope nothing ever changes that. You and Wildhorse are as much a part of the Labor Day weekend as DMB! (Well maybe not as much, but damn close!) ;^)
And I hope it carries weight that in my 34 years, I have NEVER written a letter like this to any establishment thanking them for the job they do. No one has impressed me like you and the WILDHORSE staff!!!
Troy MizgalaOn behalf of all the campers of "Toupstown", I wanted to express my thanks to you and all of the people responsible for running Wild Horse Campground. We had the best weekend we could possibly have imagined and we're all wishing we were still there right now.
-- The food at the Coral Cafe is absolutely delicious... especially the Chicken Fajita Wraps. Please give my compliments to the chefs.
-- The showers always had hot water... how is that even possible?
-- The Honey Buckets are the cleanest porta johns I've ever seen in my many years of camping./p>
We look forward to Wild Horse again the next time and every time DMB plays the Gorge.
Thank you,
Mayor Toups & the residents of ToupstownRecovering from the Wildhorse/Gorge/DMB weekend! I just wanted to say thank you from my entire group, the Joy Ride Crew! I think you successfully converted us from the bad to the good. We apologize again for any misunderstandings at the outset. We would never think about trying to pull one over on you!
You run a first class operation. We have so much fun at the Wildhorse, I couldn't imagine staying anywhere else for a Gorge concert weekend.
Your staff is incredibly nice and helpful. The food is great! The way you keep the bathrooms clean and pick up the garbage frequently does not go unnoticed! I particularly loved it when you chastised people for taking long showers. It just shows your attention to detail and care for all the campers.
Wildhorse is simply the best. We'll be back in 2010!
Many thanks!
-ReidI just wanted to say thank you so much for such an amazing weekend! Jace and I just got home to NC last night, and it was a fabulous trip. You really provide an amazing experience for us every year. Your entire staff is amazing, and I feel so lucky to have somewhere to go that I get to meet up with new friends from all over the world. Wildhorse and the Gorge reall yare my "happy" place!!You do a wonderful job, and we love it all tucked in the back corner. Thank you again, and we'll see you next year!! (Next year I'll make sure I get my reservations on time!!
"Thank you for letting us be ourselves, again!!"
Lee "LEW" Darling Charlotte, NCI just wanted to thank you and the rest of the crew at the campground. It was my first time staying there and being at the Gorge for concerts. It was amazing and you guys do an incredible job keeping the place up and looking great. You even hooked us up with a couple of chairs. I will do my best to make reservations there next year again as soon as I find out when DMB will be playing there again. It was honestly one of the best trips I've ever taken. Thanks for making it such a great experience. Sincerely,
I just wanted to say thanks for the wonderful camping this weekend. The shows were excellent and you all really run a great campground. The Wildhorse will surely be my place of choice at the Gorge from now on.
Thanks again,
Jonathan
Wanted To Say Thank You So Much For The Hospitality
You And Your Staff Showed Our Group. We All Had A Wonderful Vacation And Thanks To Wild Horse Nothing Could Have Been Better. Maybe We Will See You Next Year!!!! Thanks Again good luck This Weekend!!!
We Stayed At Wildhorse Campground For The Sasquatch Festival (2005)A Few Weeks Ago. We Were So Impressed With Your Facilities And Staff That We Would Like To Spen Our Entire Dave Matthews Band Weekend With You.i Realize The Site Says That The Grounds Are Sold Out--but We Would Really Like To Come To Your Place. Is There Any Chance You Have An Additional Camping Spot For Some New Fans Of Your Campground? If Not, We'd Love To Get On Your Waiting List.
Regards,
Rob
Just wanted to say thanks and that I was very impressed with your operation and your staff. Your campground was key to making our weekend a memorable one. It's rare to see the kind of service you guys provided at a large scale concert like the Sasquatchfest..(05). I'll see you again soon.

Thanks so much for such a wonderful time! We so enjoy everyone who is at your place. You guys are awesome.
The spaghetti dinner was so good...............Thank you!
You had a lot more people this year................yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are doing our best to spread the word. Now hopefully we will be able to get in next year.
We are looking forward to seeing you next year. How far in advance should we book for next year?
God Bless....................Dan and Tana Nuxoll............ from Coeurd'Alene.
I stayed at your campground a couple weeks ago for the Warped Tour and I want to thank you for the wonderful experience.
My friend invited me to go with her to the concert and informed me that we would be camping. Well, most of the stories about camping at the Gorge told of crazy nights and less-than-desireable accomodations. I was looking forward to the trip but have to admit, was somewhat apprehensive, fearing that the location we where we were staying would just be another "Gorge campground." Much to my surprise, we arrived and found a lush, grassy atmosphere with more than adequate space and nice "facilities." Not only was the location great, but the food was amazing! The staff was so friendly and welcoming...I almost felt as if I was staying with family!
Anyway, I just want to say thank you and keep up the good work! I'll be back for several more concerts and will encourage my friends and family to check you guys out as well!
Thanks again,
Cindi Alkofer
My buddies and I just returned from the Tim McGraw concert and a night at the Wild Horse campground. Just wanted to let all of the people that run your campground that you all did a terrific job. You guys have a really good thing going. We loved your food! Thanks so much for the great hospitality. See you soon.

What about the end of the season pig roast and maybe a volunteer clean-up & close up party?
THANK YOU FOR A GREAT TIME!!!

This isn’t actually for a reservation, I just wanted to give you all a big “WOW” and a thanks. I stayed at the Wild Horse for the first time recently, for the Dead/Allman Bros. concert, and was so impressed. The cleanliness, the friendliness of the staff, and holy cow, the food! I’ve been raving about the experience and just wanted to pass on my thanks. Keep up the good work!
Regards,
Rose Eldred
Thank you Thank you
Mollie Ailene,
I just want you all to know how much we are looking forward to bringing friends there for Tim McGraw. I am always telling people about how wonderful the Wild Horse is...and I find it difficult to explain how it exceeds all expectations. Then I thought of a description. Wild Horse is like a luxury B & B for campers! We are really looking forward to such a cushy campout again. I feel so sorry for my daughter, who insists on staying at the Gorge. No comparison! See you soon!
Melanie G. and Bev S.
As cooks, we totally enjoy having someone cook for us, plus the opportunity to stay someplace so welcoming! We were so worried we didn't get through for securing our reservation! You have just made our day! Yeah!
Much love 2 you for all your efforts!
Pete Tucker & Company
We just got home safe and sound from our weekend of fun/food/sun/music/happiness!
Thanks so much for the friendly atmosphere, the incredible food and the hug I get each year with my strawberry shortcake.
You guys make our vacations to the Gorge soooooo wonderful!
We brought two newcomers with us this year and they really enjoyed their stay too!
Till the next show...
Sincerely,

My brother Robert Donnellan, myself and groups of friends have camped w/ you for Dave for the past 2 years and we're sooooo excited to come back!!! Rob told me that he already made the reservation but I was curious if we can camp the night before Dave, August 6th - Wednesday? Can you confirm the Donnellan reservation (should be for at least 2 cars each night) and let me know if we can camp on the 6th?
Thanks for keeping this as the absolute best option for camping at the Gorge!!!!
Thanks!!!
Patricia Donnellan
Bill went out of his way to accommodate my gluten and dairy intolerance and I can't thank him enough! The campsite was gorgeous and you guys were wonderful! I will be back for sure.
Thank you,

I would like to formally thank all of you at the Wild Horse Campground for being so hospitable for Creationfest 2003. Your campground is very nice (especially the hot showers!) and it doesn't get as crowded as the Gorge's does. I really appreciate how those of you, (the few) who were there for Creationfest, took the time to make our party feel comfortable. Thank you. -Jason Isaac

I was just at the Phish shows this weekend, and a friend of mine shared his reservation with me so I got to stay at your wonderful campground. I had such a good time; all the staff were super. And now I can’t wait to come back...thanks again
brian
Thank you for a wonderful camping experience at the Wild Horse. My friends and I stayed there this past weekend for the Phish shows, and were pleasantly surprised by how every aspect of the campground was run very well. The showers were nice, the grass was well taken care of, and the staff was friendly and attentive to our needs.
Thank you,
Christopher Stebbins
P.S. I had the best shower/sunrise experience!!!
Recently my party of 12 stayed at wild horse for Ben Harper. On behalf of my group i'd like to thank you for a most pleasent stay! The people were awesome, the grounds and the shuttle were also awesome! It was such a great edition to our trip to be at wildhorse. Keep up the good work!
Thanks a million
Jerica Hatch
I stayed at your campground for the Sasquatch festival and want you to know that we had the BEST time camping there. You have done a fantastic job at making us feel welcome, helping us stay safe with your shuttle, and feel clean with those awesome hot showers! Some of our group, Dean and Friday, were unable to get tickets to that show, but they said they had a wonderful time meeting you and just hanging out.
Thanks again for helping keep the Gorge experience what it should be!

We stayed with you for the Eagles concert and had a great time--- and breakfast! We enjoyed your friendly approach and will come back.

Thanks Again,

Oh....and a special thanks to the gals cooking breakfast the next morning....I came up the the counter....with a headache.....She asked me how I was doing this morning.....I said, "Oh, I have a headache". She said, "oh, honey, would you like some aspirin? .All I have is ibuprofen ,will that be ok?" I said sure.....and she went to the back and got me some...of her personal supply. I was so impressed....I figured maybe you would have had the individually wrapped ones and I could pay for it....but nope, it was her own. I thought that was so nice.
As a suggestion.....you could probably put aspirin on your breakfast menu....and make another buck or two. :o)
Thanks again.
A very happy camper

Joe Smelcer
You have a beautiful facility, it's clean, it's safe, and it's well monitored and most of all...IT WAS PERFECT!!! Knowing you guys were there to maintain the group was nice...I think I heard you guys in our row a couple of times to quiet down our neighbors, but it was nothing compared to what we would have had to deal with at the other campground.
We will stay there with you all again in a heart beat! Thanks for everything! Keep up the great work!
Kathy Narte
He enjoyed the night and will return.
Again, Thank You!!!!

I had the chance to stay at Wild Horses campground with my friends over Memorial Weekend for Sasquatch at the Gorge. We had a great time at the concert (String Cheese Incident is incredible!) and we all loved the Wild Horses campground! I am hoping to camp there again for the Jeep Outdoor Festival (8-03-02), Area 2 (8-16-12), and for Dave Matthews Band. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for providing me and my friends with the best campground in the area! Attached is a picture of all of us at Wild Horses campground.
Thanks!
Take it easy,
Thanks for the wonderful stay. We really appreciated all of you. Thanks for the dinner and everything. You made creation more fun and bearable. We enjoyed ourselves so much that your campground is a destination by itself even if there were no concerts. Thanks for telling us about the swimming areas also. Thanks Steve, Bonnie, Debbie, Scott and your brother, Steve . If you ever need help, or have a work party let us know we would love to help. My daughter Caryn says hi to , everyone and to Wally , Eddie, and Lucky.
Thanks again. See you next year , if not before.
Ed, Joy and Caryn Smith.
P.S. your camp site is awesome have been telling everyone about it......you guys are doing a great job and the shuttle is great, even though I missed it coming back from BB King I was on his bus getting an autograph so we had to walk back until we stopped a truck that let us hitch a ride in the back. I'll send you photos of BB King and all the fun we had at wildhorse see you in Sept.
Julie Flaten
Thanks again for providing such a wonderful place for us weary concert goers to rest our heads.
When life deals you lemons, ask for a bottle of tequila and some salt.

I stayed Saturday night with a group of friends to see the DMB show. I had made reservations months in advance. We had one car arriving on Fri, two cars on Sat and one of those two cars staying an additional night. I know, sounds confusing. We arrived only to find our reservations screwed up. The woman at the gate was very understanding and accommodating. She resolved the situation and we were all let in. We enjoyed our stay much more than on the Gorge grounds.
Anyways, I doubt you get many thank you emails...so THANK YOU!
Have a great day and I wish you continued success.
Best regards,
Kevin Branton
