BOAT-IN CAMPING SITES
Cattail Cove State Park has primitive boat-in camping sites with picnic tables, stand-up BBQ grills and access to pit toilets. There are waste bins, but please plan to pack out your trash. No fire pits or campfires year round. Propane stoves are acceptable. All boat-in camping sites are first come, first served.
Park your vehicle and boat trailer in the parking lot and pay for parking. Find an unoccupied boat-in camping site and pay for camping at the site using the "Iron Ranger." The maximum length of stay is 14 nights.
Check-in time is 2 p.m. Arriving earlier than 2 p.m. does not guarantee the sites’ availability. Check-out time is 12 noon on the scheduled departure date.
Campers arriving before 12 noon on the day of arrival will be charged the park entrance fee.
