Zumbro Bottoms Central — R.J.D. Memorial Hardwood State Forest

Central Assembly Area is moderate in size; it is a primitive campground designed to furnish only the camper's basic needs, vault toilets, and hand-pumped water. There are fire rings, picnic tables, picket lines, and manure bunkers in the campground.

There are no designated campsites in this campground, and campers can set up as they wish, keeping in line with these rules:

Portable pens must be 50 feet from the road to minimize damage to the grass and not be around trees.
Horses cannot be tied to trees.
Keep the size of your campsite reasonable. To allow for other campers to use only the amount of space you need.
All camping is first-come, first-serve. Do not block off space for friends who will be arriving later.
Clean up your campsite when you leave. Take all garbage with you and put all hay and manure in the bunkers provided.
This is a popular camping area and on busy weekends can accommodate about 20 camping units.
Quiet hours are between 10:00 p.m.–8:00 a.m. (this includes no generator use). Please be considerate of others around you.

Zumbro Bottoms offers access to 44 miles of horseback riding trails. The trails have been marked with brown signs showing appropriate uses.
