Pachaug State Forest contains two campgrounds - Mount Misery and Green Falls. The campgrounds are located in separate locations of the forest. Up to 2 pets per campsite are allowed at both Mount Misery and Green Falls campgrounds. There is a third campground designated for equestrians and their horses only. We do not provide or rent horses. Campers attempting to camp at the equestrian campground without horses will not be allowed to stay. There is no camp office at Pachaug State Forest. The campgrounds are considered rustic - there are no flush toilets or showers. Cell phone service is extremely limited within the forest. .
Firewood: In an effort to protect Connecticut's forests from the introduction and spread of destructive insect pests - in particular the emerald ash borer and Asian long-horned beetle - we are taking the following action:
Prohibiting the bringing of firewood into state of Connecticut campgrounds and state parks from other states. Firewood can be purchased at local retailers.
We greatly appreciate the public's assistance in helping to protect the state's natural resources and apologize for any inconvenience this initiative may cause.
