Best Time to Camp at Scaredman Recreation Site
From May through November, Scaredman welcomes campers with pleasantly moderate temperatures that make both daytime exploration and evening campfires equally enjoyable. Summer visitors should come prepared with insect repellent, as the warm months awaken the local bug population – a small price to pay for peak swimming conditions. As autumn arrives, crisp air and changing leaves create magical camping moments. Winter transforms the landscape into a quiet wonderland, though cold temperatures and precipitation typically close the camping season.
Open and busiest May–Nov; swimming and warm weather activities peak in summer per reviews.
Pleasant temps, mushrooms and good foliage/waterfall viewing reported; fewer crowds than peak summer.
Late spring (after May 16) is open and pleasant, but most of spring the site is closed.
Campground closed outside Nov 15–May 16; winter visits not supported.
Planning Tips
- Peak Season: May 16 - November 15 (annually).. Book 2-3 months ahead.
- Operating Season: Open for reservations May 16 - November 15. Closed outside these dates.
