Top of the Pines has a rustic walk-in campground with nine campsites, open from May 15-Oct. 15. Each campsite has its own picnic table and barbecue and there is a central fire pit. There are two pit toilets nearby, and potable water is available from two pumps. The campsites are a short walk from the upper Pavilion parking lot. RVs and camping trailers are not permitted at TOP (except for the campground hosts). If you plan to camp in your vehicle (van or pickup truck with a camper shell) you may do so in the upper parking lot that is adjacent to the campground, but you still must reserve a tent site as well. All vehicles must stay on the gravel roads or in the designated parking areas at all times; it is not permitted to drive all the way into the tent camping area. No hookups are available.
