Summary
This area offers both established campgrounds and dispersed camping. Many developed sites—like Lane Spring and Cobb Ridge—have pit toilets, potable water, fire rings/grills, picnic tables, and allow RVs (some with limited hookups). Reservations may be required for popular sites; dispersed camping is generally free and permit-free. The forested, rolling hills offer a peaceful, rustic vibe with nearby hiking, biking, and river activities. Best visited spring through fall for mild weather and vibrant foliage. Fees vary by site; check with USDA Forest Service for details.

Camping Essential Practices
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.
