Due to a managed deer hunt at the park, special-use camping will not be available at Cuivre River State Park Nov. 1, 2 or 3, 2024, and reservations for any of these dates will not be accepted.

Cuivre River State Park has two special-use camping areas that are designated for group camping, with nonprofit organizations and youth groups having priority. Each area is equipped with picnic tables and fire pits. There is one vault toilet between the two areas.

The fee for use of the area is $24 for up to 12 people, then $2 per person, per night thereafter. To reserve an area for your group, call 636-528-7247.
