Many of the pathways and low foundations of this first CCC camp still remain on the grounds.
Today, Camp Roosevelt is enjoyed by many for camping, picnicking, and hiking. Come and relax and discover an area rich in history.

We camped here last year for 3 days and it was fantastic. There are restrooms only no showers. But it’s worth not showering for a day or two. It’s about as quiet as you can get anymore. The sites are on the honor system with no reservations. First come first camped. The sites are usually empty during the week and most folks camp as they pass through for one night. If you’re into hiking, this is the place. Miles upon miles of trails. You won’t be disappointed.
