Campsites

FOWPA maintains five rustic campsites on the easement land. Each is located on the shore of Lower Wilson Pond and available to the public on a first-there basis.

We were pleased to receive letter and donation from S. Edward Gardella stating that he and his family have been staying at our campsites for many years. He also volunteered to help with campsite maintenance.

The Board of Directors formally named the campsites in April of 2021. The names are Birch Point, Gravel Bluff, Blueberry Island, The Cliffs (locally known as Acapulco), and Rum Cove. There are signs located at each site with the names.

Use of the sites is “first-come, first-serve”. Forest Service fire permits are required to have a camp fire. Also please practice “Pack-in, Pack-out”. Wag Bags may be present, but you should bring your own. Wag bags can be purchased on Amazon.com.

Thank you to our volunteers who make these sites possible and fun: Peg Phillips, Dot Lamson,
Pat Shafer, Ralph Johnson, Norm Lamonde, and Mike DiCaprio.
