Moon Lake Recreation Area

State forest rustic campsites -- unlike other motorized, roadside sites -- are within a campground setting with a concentration of other sites nearby. These are ideal for those who want a rustic experience near other campers. They receive regular maintenance and some include a pit latrine or vault toilet, but no other amenities. Three state forest rustic campsites are available in the Manny Gordon Recreation Area and 12 are available in the Moon Lake Recreation Area.

State Forest Rustic Organized Group Campsites are designated for organized groups. The Moon Lake Group Campsite is limited to organized groups, which have a formal organization to coordinate and carry out its activities, appointed or elected leadership, and periodic meetings. An organized youth group has a majority of its members under age 18 and is affiliated with an on-going organization like school, youth, and church groups. An organized adult group has a majority of its members above 18 years of age and is affiliated with an organization such as the Rotary Club or the Lions Club.
