Learn more about alerts →Hikers and RVers who want a forested valley setting with 30-amp hookups and good shower facilities will do well here. The island-style sites along Beaver Creek are the draw, and DNR staff get consistent praise. Reserve 120 days out for July weekends.
Mosquitoes are relentless and raccoons raid campsites boldly, so if either of those is a dealbreaker, pick somewhere else. Some water spigots won't fill tanks, pothole-filled gravel roads are a recurring complaint, and showers can run cold.

Summer delivers the warmest, most reliable weather and the longest days for hiking and evening naturalist programs. Expect daytime highs around 70–85°F with cool nights in the 50s–60s. Trails, programs, and campground services are most likely to be staffed and open, and moonlit hikes and creek-side evenings are at their peak. Plan for higher crowds in July–August and occasional afternoon thunderstorms. Reserve a site and pack layers for cool nights. Spring brings wildflower blooms and migrating birds, while fall offers stunning foliage displays.
Summer offers warm weather, full trail access and evening naturalist programs.
