Sheyenne Oaks Horse Camp & RV Park
ND · Leonard / Sheyenne National Grassland
6050 County Road 23
Sheyenne Oaks Horse Camp & RV Park is the North Dakota entry for riders who want their horse trip to feel the most comfortable on the camping side. Bordering the Sheyenne National Grassland just north of the trailhead, the property combines equestrian function with amenities that noticeably elevate the stay: full-hookup RV sites, showers, cabins, water, sewer, and a layout designed so large horse trailers can pull in without requiring awkward backing. That blend of usefulness and comfort is exactly what makes it spreadsheet-worthy. It still reads as a horse destination first, but one with enough polish to feel easy and welcoming from arrival through departure.
Riding guide
Highlights
A polished private horse camp beside the grasslands, with full hookups, cabins, and the kind of trailer-friendly layout riders instantly appreciate.
Riding
The appeal on horseback comes from immediate access to the Sheyenne National Grassland, which offers a more open-and-oak-studded eastern North Dakota ride than the state’s western badlands parks. It is a good fit for riders who want a trip built around camp comfort and repeat trail access rather than a single marquee route. The riding mood feels calm, regional, and pleasingly unhurried.
Trailer parking
Long pull-through-style sites and no-backup driveway design make arrivals especially comfortable for larger trailers. It is one of the few places where the parking rhythm itself feels intentionally stress-reducing for horse travelers.
Horse regulations
Because this is a private horse camp, confirm current booking details, corral arrangements, and any camp rules directly before arrival. Use the horse facilities thoughtfully, keep the site clean, and coordinate ahead if you need anything special for a larger group or longer stay. The payoff is a stay that can feel very smooth when handled intentionally.
Getting here
Use 6050 County Road 23 in Leonard as your destination and expect the arrival process to be one of the easiest on the sheet. The sites are long and spacious, the driveways are designed to reduce or eliminate backing, and individual horse corrals are available in a central area with nearby water hydrants. For anyone who has ever white-knuckled a trailer into a cramped campground, that design choice is more luxurious than it sounds.
Planning your visit
Sheyenne Oaks is the right choice when your trip priorities include camp comfort, trailer ease, and a more finished overnight experience. It is especially attractive for riders who love trail access but also want hookups, showers, cabins, and a little breathing room around the logistics. In editorial terms, it is one of North Dakota’s strongest comfort-forward equestrian stays.
Where to stay
This is where Sheyenne Oaks shines. The property offers 38 sites with electric, sewer, and water, a central shower house, cabins, individual corrals, and even hay available for purchase. Horses are not listed as provided, so this is still a haul-in destination, but the overnight experience is exceptionally rider-aware. It feels like a place designed by people who understand what horse travelers notice first.
