While I wish the site could be rebuilt exactly as it was, this is impossible.  I therefore think we should make Lily Glen the best horse camping location it can be. In my opinion this means a more modern, equine and equestrian friendly, environment.

The historic barn was nice, but it’s gone. I'd rather move on to something more practical and less maintenance. And something that won't cost a fortune to do!

Whatever is built, make sure the park remains a horse facility and has everything needed to make it an equine destination park.

All over the country we have lost or are losing our historic buildings and areas to progress, destruction or vandalism.. I would like to see this particular area rebuilt in the "way it was" to keep our history alive.  There are not many places left like this in Oregon although Oregon is the end of the Oregon Trail and has a great historical advantage in that fact..

Since this is/was an historic building, I would like to see it replicated to as close to its original state as possible.  I know this was used constantly by horse people and mostly youth riders and I want to see this continue for the future youth in equestrian endeavors.  There is grant money out there that could be used.

A barn at a camp ground is kind of a unique concept. Doesn't feel much like camping. The historic value is the important factor, otherwise I want my horse in my camp.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A MINIMUM AMOUNT OF DISTURBANCE TO THE AREA OUTSIDE OF THE BARN & CORRALS AREA.  IT SEEMS WE HAVE FORGOTTEN WHY THE AREA IS CALLED LILY GLEN.  I HAVE BEEN UP THERE EARLY IN THE SPRING AND SEEN THE THOUSANDS OF LILIES IN BLOOM.  I HAVEN'T BEEN THERE IN RECENT YEARS EARLY IN THE SEASON, SO DON'T KNOW HOW

MANY HAVE SURVIVED.

PLEASE, PLEASE make water available WITHOUT having to manually pump it.  The manual pumps are extremely hard to pump for some women and make it unappealing to camp there.  Thanks for your consideration in this matter.

That old barn was a great historical item for viewing construction methods in the early days, but as a practical horse facility, it was dank and dingy, and hardly anybody used it if the corrals were available. Rebuilding should be more for practical usage.

I would like to see it made as much as possible as the old one with just one improvement on the outside corrals being covered.

I loved that barn, but time passes. The last option gives the most and a roof would just be fine.

I think it only suitable to replace the original barn with one as close to it as is possible.  Lily Glen was donated to be a place for horsemen, and should remain in the original condition.  The history and originality of Lily Glen is a large part of the beauty for me.

I have not had the opportunity to ride and camp there, but I am looking forward to being able to use the facility in the future.

I would love to see this site reopened.  I have been coming there from southern California since the 1980's.  Now that I live in southern Oregon I go one or two time a year. I know that it will not be an expensive place to maintain but I would like to see the facility made available to the Pony club and 4-H groups.  It could be an important park and possibly they could help in the maintenance.  At one time I was told they could not afford to use the facility because of the fee.

REMOVE THE CATTLE GUARD!!!!! Repair the perimeter fencing and gates, put up more corrals (a bit larger would be nice) for an individual to rent that are not connected to the group rental areas. Make a covered site for group gatherings and BBQs, and make it easier to get fresh water; the pumps are very difficult to use for many of us. Thanks for listening.

Like in the first meeting of Lily Glen rebuilding it was discussed on the people’s choice.  At that time it was voted on the rebuild as close as possible as to the old one.

This was and is a wonderful asset to the community.  I hope that you will be able to rebuild it and make it even better.  I no longer live in Jackson County, but still visit.

This is such an asset to our community. When the new roof was being put on the barn, I was newly arrived to the area and was so impressed by the community spirit and co-operation. Even community members who did not have horses joined in the effort to restore this historical treasure. I have since used the facilities for day use as well as camping. I would be willing to help with the rebuilding in any way I can.

I'd like to have more campsites with corrals right next to the campsites, spread out across a much wider area.  In addition, my opinions expressed about the barn would benefit from a discussion, in person or on line, with people who have researched the pros and cons of each option. My votes are based on my own, rather limited scope of experience at Lily Glen.  I have ridden there about 12 times.  I would prefer that my opinions and votes be based on an understanding of everyone's needs.

I'd love the original barn, but costs would be way too high.

I like the rough camping look, keep it like it is....maybe an easier pump for the water.

Building a replica of the old barn would be wonderful and keep the historic feeling of the area.

I also suggest a covered area with a fire place and picnic tables.

Tough choices since I would prefer different things depending on funding! The old barn was lovely in a historical way, but also not highly practical. Having indoor space to use in terrible weather was great, although it's not available at any other horse camp. I would love to see the style of the outside of the old barn reproduced, but perhaps more usable/ more light on the inside. Or maybe simply a large covered space. I don't feel we need to put roofs over the stalls, but it is nice when horse camp stalls have ridge poles for the horse owners to throw tarps over if it does rain.

I belong to many groups that could provide volunteer help during the barn rebuild process and in the future. Oregon Equestrian Trails, Cascade Pony Club, Eventers of Eastern and Central Oregon, and Driving Enthusiasts of Central Oregon are some of the groups that I belong to that have an interest in Lily Glen. Feel free to contact me.
