Map or Directions


A headquarters plus 8 ranger districts take care of the almost 1.8 million acres of this forest that spreads over 3 states, making it one of the largest public land areas in the eastern US. There are a wide variety of landscapes and habitats providing for innumerable bird, plant, and wildlife, year round activities and recreational pursuits, and many educational opportunities as well. Developed and primitive camping is available at several different locations throughout the forest. Reservations are suggested for favored areas. Most of the developed sites offer tables, grills, drinking water, toilet facilities, and are closer to recreational areas. Primitive camping requires campers to "Leave No Trace" and offers no services. This campground is closed during the off-season. There are no water hookups at the campgrounds.
