Have anyone ever gone camping completely on horseback?

My fiance and I want to go camping with our horses, but we don't want to take a horse trailer seeing as how we pretty much want to go just right in our own backyard (NV). We know the items we need to take versus the items we want to take. I'm just concerned as to how everything will be packed. There will be 2 people, 2 horses, and 3 dogs (medium/large dogs)

Obviously we need the necessities (tent, change of clothes, food for horses and dogs, we plan to fish at the lake we want to camp at, and all 3 dogs wil be equipped with their own packs to carry their food, rope for a high line, etc.) I was wondering if there were special packs, besides cantle and horn bag, that can be on the horse along with the rider. Something like a sawbuck saddle and pack, but be able to ride at the same time. I don't want it to be heavy just have enough storage for items such as the clothes, small camp grill or a grate, first aid kit (for people, horses, and dogs) and anything else I or you can think of.

Thank you
