About
One of the forest's three primitive (Class C) family campgrounds - Narrow Lake, Wampler Lake and Reservoir #26 - which share 100 family campsites; the DNR does not state the count at each. Each site has a picnic table and grill; pit toilets and seasonal drinking water.
First come, first served; self-check-in stations are in each campground and at the forest office. Five electric sites in the forest and its rent-a-camp cabins book on the state's reservation system; the primitive sites do not.
In Greene-Sullivan State Forest.
Fees
$12.15 per night (the DNR's first-come state forest rate; taxes not included), paid at the self-registration station or the forest office
