The primitive sites are either AT style leantos or tent sites. Each site has a fire ring and picnic table. There is NO potable water, electricity, showers or cell/internet service in the Park. Firewood is for sale at the Ranger station for $5 per bundle. NO firewood is permitted to be brought into the Park. Pit toilets are clean and well maintained. Most sites are within easy access to Katahdin Stream which is fast moving and cold. You can get into the water but no soap or detergent of any kind is permitted. It is approximately 45 minute drive from the Togue Pond Gate over narrow dirt roads (very dusty). You are at least an hour from the nearest supply and closer to 2 hours from Millinocket where there is a Hannaford supermarket. Be sure to bring everything you need! Pack bug spray in June & July.

Reservations can be made beginning 4 months from the first day of your reservation. Current fees are $16 per night per site. You can do this on-line or call the office. $16 per out-of-state car collected at the gate. (Maine cars are not charged an entrance fee.)
