Campers are reminded that camping is only allowed within designated camping areas and a fee is required. The camping fee is $15.00 per night with a single vehicle. Each additional vehicle up to a maximum of two vehicles per site is an additional $5.00.

 

Motorists are advised that it is always unlawful to operate unlicensed vehicles (including off-road vehicles with or without green stickers) on State Forest roads.
