The camping opportunities at Bonaparte's Cave State Forest include four primitive campsites and two accessible primative campsites located on Mud Pond and Waugh PFA Roads. Campsites are delineated and include tables, fire rings and privies. There is no potable water source. No trash pickup is provided. This is a carry in-carry out facility.
At-large primitive camping is allowed. Campsites must be at least 150 feet away from the nearest road, trail, or body of water. Camping for more than three nights or in groups of ten or more requires a permit from a Forest Ranger.
