There are three accessible-designated campsites. They are located on grassy terrain with a grill and picnic table. None has a designated tent site, but one includes an RV hookup. Though all sites are relatively flat, some include more uneven areas, including around site features such as RV hookups and grills. Paved loop roads and concrete walkways to two of the campground's three comfort stations provide firm paths of travel. A single accessible shower is located near the comfort station on Loop C. The showers nearest the accessible-designated campsite on Loop A lack a bench, grab bars, and sufficient space to maneuver a mobility device.
