You will find the national forest campgrounds offer lower pricing and a more woodsy feel while the state park camping offers a "park" like setting with mowed lawns. Lake Cascade State Park offers a variety of camping environments, boat ramps and docks, picnic sites and several swimming beaches. There is a $5.00 entrance fee to enter any state park facility unless you are renting a space. There are showers available at Ridgeview and Poison Creek Campgrounds. It will cost you $5.00 for your car to enter the park and then $3.00 each for the shower. If you want to use a state park boat ramp it is also a $5.00 fee. They only charge one $5.00 fee per day, so you should be able to take your boat down and unload, then later go to the showers with the same fee so hang onto your receipt.
