Fox River State Forest Campground

About this site

Nestled on a forested bluff along the Fox River, this rustic campground is popular among anglers. Noted for its wild brook trout fishery, scenery, history and recreation values, the Fox River is managed as a “natural river.” The river can be accessed directly from the campground by descending a set of stairs. There are a few different sets of stairs throughout the campground. Visitors can also hike the Fox River Pathway, which runs directly through the campground and can be accessed on the east or west side of the campground. There are seven sites for tent, small trailer and large trailer use. Camping is limited to a 15-day maximum stay. Amenities include vault toilets and potable water from a hand-pump well. Additional Info: Sites available on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations. Open year-round, but campground and seasonal roads are not plowed in winter. Provides access to state land open to hunting (firearm hunting not allowed within 450 feet of occupied dwelling). Snowmobile operation allowed between campground and nearby trails.
