Fanny's Ford Campground Parking
The gravel camper parking lot for Fanny's Ford Campground is closed due to construction. Fanny's Ford Campground Campers should park in the loop parking lot.
Last updated on: Tuesday, July 13, 2021 Weekend delays
Weekend delays: Due to increased visitation, several parks are reaching parking space capacity and are having to close temporarily on weekends to incoming traffic. Please be prepared by arriving early morning or late afternoon on weekends and having a backup plan in case the parking areas are full when you arrive. Weekdays are the best time to visit our parks if you want to avoid parking closures and crowds.
Last updated on: Friday, May 28, 2021 PEA CREEK TRAIL CLOSED
The Pea Creek Trail (trailhead located at the Cole Mill access) is closed until further notice. Due to recent storms, erosion has undercut steps, put deep holes into the trail, and significantly damaged the trail. Do Not Enter From Any Access.
