Legacy Park Trust Inc. is an Idaho-based nonprofit and 501(c)(3) organization established to purchase, manage, grow, and

preserve Cowboy Campground at Legacy Park in Idaho City. 

​

With the support of our original stakeholders, we provisionally secured the land title in August 2020 and have already

completed significant improvements to the property and facilities.

Our next major milestone is raising the funds needed to place the land and its resources into a permanent Trust, ensuring this unique destination is preserved for future generations.

Through community fundraising efforts, private donations, sponsorships, and corporate partnerships, we can continue

protecting and improving this one-of-a-kind resource.

All donations are securely held in a dedicated trust account at Wells Fargo until the buyout goal is achieved,

all contributions are tax-deductible.

​

Our Mission
To provide and preserve public access to equestrian trails within the Boise National Forest while offering a welcoming space for outdoor recreation, equine and group events, and opportunities that support physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being in our community.

​

Once the buyout is complete, the Legacy Park Trust Board will appoint an Executive Director to oversee operations, community programming, and long-term stewardship of the property.

Continued fundraising efforts will help support a wide range of opportunities, including affordable wedding venues, retreats,

horse camping, educational clinics, and free or reduced-cost summer camps for youth and veterans.

At the heart of our mission is a commitment to outdoor education, wellness, healing, and community connection.

Located just one hour from Boise, Legacy Park and Cowboy Campground offer a rare opportunity to

reconnect with nature, community, and the simple joys of outdoor living.

​

As Idaho’s open spaces continue to disappear through development, our immediate priority is preserving Cowboy Campground through the establishment of a permanent, non-revocable land trust that protects this special place for future generations.

​

We are actively pursuing grants, sponsorships, and community partnerships to transform this “gem in the rough” into a lasting community resource. Organizations and businesses that support the project through funding or volunteer efforts may also have opportunities to utilize the facility for events, retreats, or educational programming.

Every contribution goes directly toward the purchase, preservation, and ongoing improvement of the park.

 

Now is the time to be part of something meaningful and lasting. Your support helps ensure that future families, riders, veterans, youth groups, and community organizations can continue to enjoy and benefit from this unique destination.

​

Cowboy Campground LLC is proud to be a good neighbor in Boise County, giving back to the Idaho City community through support of local nonprofits, Boise County Search & Rescue,  the food bank, and Chamber of Commerce fundraising efforts.

​

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has contributed, volunteered, or pledged support.

We invite you to visit Cowboy Campground for your next equestrian camping trip, clinic, competition, retreat, or special event and to consider our unique Old West setting for weddings, memorials, reunions, and community gatherings.
