Wallace State Park Campground Information
The park's peaceful, family-oriented campgrounds include both basic and electric campsites.  On-season (April 15 through Oct. 31) services include reservable sites, modern restrooms, hot showers and a trailer dump station. Playground equipment located near Campgrounds 2 and 4. Walk-in campsites are available for those seeking more seclusion.  Campers planning to carry in firewood must comply with current firewood advisories.

The campgrounds are open year-round.  Reservations can be made for stays during the on-season (April 15 through Oct. 31).

During the off-season (Nov. 1 through April 14), potable water is available at the frost-free spigot near the showerhouse and firewood is sold upon request.

Group Reservations

Campground 4 can accommodate a group of 20 and has electric campsites ranging in length from 40 feet to 99 feet. Detailed information about each campsite can be accessed by clicking on the campsite numbers on the campground map. Campers associated with the group may telephone the reservation center (877-422-6766) or go on-line to make their reservations. For all camping customers, there is a five-site limit per call or on-line session. To ensure availability of the quantity of sites needed, campers of the group are encouraged to organize their trip with group members and reserve their sites as early as possible within the six-month reservation window, as other campers not associated with any group also may reserve in Campground 4 as early as six months prior to their arrival date. Typical reservation fees, policies and rules apply to reservations made by campers associated with a group.
