Primitive camping is available on select islands. Be sure to look for the white Carsonite post bearing a tent symbol and camping rules before unpacking gear and equipment. Firewood quarantines are currently in effect. Firewood from outside the area is not permitted. Help protect our forests by purchasing or collecting firewood at or near your camping destination and burning it on-site.
GuideThis is a really great place to camp if you have a way to boat out to the island. We use a canoe since it’s only a quarter mile or so paddle. The only down side (at least when we were there) is the raccoons. They will come up really close at night begging for food. They’re harmless though.
