Summary

There are no established campsites—just primitive spots first-come, first-served. No reservations or permits are needed, and camping is free. There are no toilets (pack out waste), no drinking water, and no hookups. Minimal amenities include fire rings; picnic tables are limited. RVs can access the area, but conditions suit tents and small campers best. Expect a quiet, forested lakeside vibe with great paddling, fishing, and nearby hiking trails like Bruno’s Run. Best visited June–October for mild weather and fewer bugs.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
