Campground regulations regarding fires & firewood
You cannot bring firewood with you, in an effort to stop the spread of the invasive emerald ash borer and other invasives.
Campers are required to comply with outdoor fire policy as followed by all state park properties. It is the responsibility of the campers to maintain this requirement.
You may collect kindling from deadfall on the ground in the forest measuring no more than 1 inch in diameter.
Fires must only be in the designated fireboxes at each campsite and should be attended at all times.
No debris from fire/grill usage should be left at the campsite upon departure.
