Summary

Ferron Campground has picnic tables, fire rings, vault toilets, and seasonal drinking water, but no RV hookups (small RVs okay). Sites are first-come, first-served with a small nightly fee, no reservations needed. The area is peaceful, lakeside, and ideal for fishing, canoeing, and hiking, with trails like Ferron Canyon and Skyline Drive nearby. Summer (June–September) is best for access and weather. Expect cool nights, solitude, and stunning views of pine forests and the reservoir—perfect for a quiet mountain escape.

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.
