Little River State Park

141
   We got a site in this very popular park without making reservations but that was probably because we asked about  accessible sites and one of the two happened to be available. We were given site 80 which appears to be an added-on afterthought. It’s located on the edge of the playground clearing and directly across from the restrooms and shower house. The site is hard packed dirt around the table, fire ring and grill, and grass in the parking area. None of the sites have hookups but there is a dump station and fresh water.

  In the early 1800s about fifty families lived in a farming and logging community on the land west of the campground. Life was hard and most had left by the turn of the century. Stone walls, cellar holes, orchards, and cemeteries can be explored by following the old roads which are now trails. The trails aren’t accessible due to the steep terrain.

  Some of the sites are big enough for large RVs but maneuvering into them may be a little difficult. Park
