What campers say

Black River State Forest offers scenic, varied hiking with rocky lookouts and a viewing tower, plus mountain bike and ATV options. The campgrounds are relatively small and quiet with well-spaced sites, clean restrooms, and generally helpful staff; river access and self-guided trails add to the appeal. Expect a range of trail difficulties suitable for families and experienced hikers. Tradeoffs include periodic mosquito problems in some sites, occasional site-layout quirks (e.g., fire pit placement), limited on-site services like accessible firewood, and sparse signage or cell service that can make navigation harder.
