The parks have 14 campgrounds of which the majority are first-come, first-served. Lodgepole, Dorst and certain group campgrounds are open to reservations. Campgrounds often fill up on Saturday nights in July and August. Sunday afternoons through Friday afternoons offer the best chance of finding a campsite, with the exception of Lodgepole which usually has limited sites even midweek. Each campsite has a picnic table, fire ring with grill and a metal bear box for food storage. There are no hookups in the parks. Dump stations are located at Potwisha and Lodgepole.
