Cranberry Campground Access

Cranberry Campground is a semi-primitive campground with 28 single sites and 2 double sites located along the Cranberry River, offering first-come, first-served camping ($10-$20/night) with basic amenities including vault toilets, hand-pump water, picnic tables, and fire rings.

The campground serves as a primary access point to the Cranberry Wilderness (47,815 acres) and Cranberry Backcountry (14,000 acres) with 135 miles of trails, and provides direct river access for fishing and paddling; note that it experiences very high use during spring trout stocking season (April-June) and fall (September-October) when sites often fill completely.
