Water enthusiasts will find Fort Knox Campground positioned along the Calamus River, two miles from Calamus Reservoir and Marina. This private campground operates seasonally from April through October and requires advance reservations, with some sites booked for entire seasons.
The facility accommodates RVs up to 100 feet with full hookups including 30 and 50 amp electric service, water, and sewer connections. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring in a standard RV park layout. The campground charges $45 per night but lacks on-site restrooms, according to recent visitor reports.
