Blueberry Patch Campground is a small, semi-primitive campground located along Picnic Area Road (County Route 2), next to the large blueberry patch it received its name from. This is a popular spot to gather berries when they are in season. The berry patch features the high bush as well as low bush blueberries. The campground gate is open from May – October 31st. From late fall to early spring you may walk in and camp, but there is no water available. Sites are available on a first come-first served basis, with a $5 per site per night camping fee.
