== Park Lodging ==
<!-- Park offered lodging  -->
Park offers RV sites, tent only sites as well as cabins. 

=== Campground ===  
Camp store sells wood, ice, and some very basic other sundries. The main RV area is blanketed with Wi-Fi but when visiting in Summer of 2015, couldn't be accessed. Several bathhouses are spread around the site and include hot showers. A dump station for RV's is also available near the camp check-in station.

[[File:Roan tent only site.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Typical tent only site]]Tent only sites are built on a course gravel bed so bring your tarps to protect your tent floor and sleeping pads or mattresses for comfort. Each site includes a lantern post, a concrete picnic table, rock lined fire ring, standing grill, water hydrant, and trash can. Note that the tent only sites do not have electrical hookups. 

Camp sites of special note:
* 22 & 38 have no tree block separating them (good for groups, bad for others)
* 26 is next to a bathroom with a light and fan on all night
* 33, 35, 36, 37, 39, and 40 are prime sites along the Doe River
