Camping:
Awesome lodge and camping here (Closed for 2022)
Horse Creek Campground (outside of the park a bit, hook ups and open year around)
We stayed in the National Forest part of the park for free. Make sure you are on the park of the road that is National Forest and pull over for the evening! We were close to "Grizzly Falls" waterfall. Clearly no hookups but there was an outhouse close to the waterfall.
