Summary
The campground features pit toilets, hand-pumped potable water, fire rings, and picnic tables. Sites can accommodate tents and small RVs (no hookups). Nestled in a quiet, wooded hollow alongside Fowler Hollow Run, the vibe is peaceful and forested. Ideal for hikers, the park connects to Tuscarora State Forest trails like the Tuscarora and Iron Horse Trails. Fall is a top time to visit for colorful foliage and mild weather. It's a great spot for a quiet, back-to-nature camping experience.

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.
