About Steer Creek
Tucked in the shade of ponderosa pines planted in the early 1900's, this 23-unit campground is in the southeast corner of the Samuel R. McKelvie National Forest. A hand water pump, picnic tables, fire rings, and modern vault toilets make this an attractive base from which to explore the Sandhills. The Blue Jay Trail, a one-mile nature loop, starts and ends at the campground. For horseback riders, a corral with stalls is available, with a manure bunk nearby. We ask that horses not be in individual campsites unless being saddled.
