Good for off grid camping

Camping at the Canal is on a first-come, first-serve basis. There are no set check-in or check-out times. The Canal’s site security officer makes rounds to each campsite to collect camping fees, in-person. Campers can pay by cash or check.

Camping is only allowed in the designated campsites. Fires are only allowed in the state designated fire pits at the campgrounds.

There are no operable drinking water fountains along the the canal so bring your own water for your hike or camping trip.

Pricing The canal offers class "C" (primitive camping without showers or electricity) for $8.00 per family/per night, regardless of mode of camping, i.e. tent, camper, pop-up.
