All sites have picnic tables and fire rings with grills, and access to water and primitive toilets. Modern restroom and shower facilities are not provided.

Capacity ranges from 12 to 200 people, depending on location. Most group camps are open from mid-May through October, but a few are open year-round. Pets are allowed but must be leashed and attended at all times. Only approved firewood is allowed.
