Construction of a new shower/flush toilet building in the family campground at Council Grounds State Park is underway. Campers should expect construction activity in the campground until the building is completed in late June 2024.

Both the family and group campgrounds will open May 1, and the sanitary dump station is expected to open on May 15, 2024.

Council Grounds State Park offers family and group campsites. Shower and toilet facilities and the dump station are open seasonally.
