Open fires are prohibited throughout the park from midnight to 4 p.m. through April 30 per the 4 p.m. Burning Law. This includes wood and charcoal. Gas is permissible. Campground fires are allowed during the restricted time if a camp host is on duty and signage to that effect is posted in the campground. Failure to observe the 4 p.m. Burning Law can result in a fine. Contact the Park Office for additional information.

Plan your getaway

Most parks have overnight accommodations. In fact, we have nearly 300 cabins, 47 yurts and more than 2,000 campsites. Fourteen parks have lodges.

Looking for Something Different?

Yurts
Recreational yurts are a modern adaptation of an ancient nomadic shelter that combines a beautiful wood frame and with durable, electronically bonded architectural fabric. It's a cross between a tent and a cabin.
Lodge
You'll find plenty of room to spread out in our well-equipped, reasonably priced five and six-bedroom family lodges. While some are thoroughly modern and others are rustic and comfy, they're all in quiet, natural settings.
Bunkhouse
A few parks have camping lodges (bunkhouses). These two- or three-room pre-fab buildings have seven bunk beds, and each lodge accommodates up to 14.
Primitive camping
Primitive campsites generally have fire grills, picnic tables, pit toilets and non-potable water. Primitive hike-in and canoe-in camping sites are available at certain parks.
RV site
22 state parks have sites for recreational vehicles. Sizes allowed are different at each park so plan ahead.
Inn at Foster Falls
Located within New River Trail State Park, the Inn at Foster Falls has 10 rooms available for overnight accommodations.
