Summer emerges as the golden window for camping, when gentler weather unveils the forest's lush green canopy and wildlife activity reaches its peak. Visitors should come prepared for rapidly changing conditions and the region's famous liquid sunshine, which nourishes the surrounding rainforest's incredible biodiversity.
Peak season (May 9–Sept 12) offers full amenities, hiking, fishing and paddling.
Campground closes Sept 12; reviews note water shutoff after Labor Day and reduced amenities.
Opens May 9; late‑spring access offers activities but variable weather early in season.
Facility is seasonal and closed outside May 9–Sept 12.
