Tahuya River Horse Camp is a horse camp in Washington managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It sits along the Tahuya River, with the Tahuya River Trail starting just 0.1 mile away and the Tahuya River paddling route about 0.4 mile off. The camp makes a natural base for exploring the surrounding trails and waterways. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs around 76°F with only about five wet days a month, while winter brings highs in the mid-40s and rain on roughly 20 days a month. Nearby options include the Howell Lake Trail at 0.5 mile and the Mission Creek Staging Trail at 1.6 miles. Paddlers can also look to the Dewatto River, about 3 miles away, and climbers will find Eagle Rock (a.k.a School Rock) roughly 9 miles off.
