Elkwood Campground

Welcome to Elkwood Campground!

Here at Elkwood, we provide a truly a one-of-a-kind experience, bringing you closer to nature than any other campground in the area—a true nature lover’s campground!

Come explore our gorgeous hiking trails and catch a glimpse of elk, deer, and wild turkey as they wander through the campground. Birdwatchers, we have you covered as well: Elkwood is home to Sandhill Cranes, Pileated Woodpeckers, and Red-tailed Hawks. Even the occasional eagle has been spotted!

No matter the season, there is a constant stream of activity here at the campground. In the spring, hunt for morel mushrooms or enjoy the exquisite wildflowers. Pick blackberries and raspberries in the summer in our meadows or cool off in our pool. When the leaves begin to turn, listen for the unique sound of elk bugling or just enjoy the autumn colors. Plus, the clear skies are perfect for star gazing the whole year round.
