    Old Stone Fort Campground

    Tent & RV

    Campsites have water and electrical hookups, grills, picnic tables and hard-surface pads that can accommodate a unit up to 50 feet in length. A dump station is open year-round. One of the two restroom facilities includes showers. However, that building is not open during the off-season, so showers are not available in December, January, and February. The stay limit is two weeks. You must leave for three nights between stays of maximum length. Changing sites to lengthen your stay is not acceptable. Please note that some of the southern campsites tend to hold water after it rains. Please call the park office for the current conditions of your booked or intended site.
