Recreational Activities - Camp Roosevelt

Elizabeth Furnace is open, but will remain on reduced services all summer. The reduced fees are $10.00 per night.

The CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) is gone, but their legacy still remains. "The boys of Roosevelt" built many of the recreation areas, roads, and trails, enjoyed today.

Many of the pathways and low foundations of this first CCC camp still remain on the grounds.

Camp Roosevelt CCC Alumni constructed the picnic shelter in 1983.

Today, Camp Roosevelt is enjoyed by many for camping, picnicking, and hiking. Come and relax and discover an area rich in history.

For more information on our developed campsites visit our camping page.
