About Croft State Park

During World War II, this land served as Camp Croft, a US Army basic training center that also held prisoners of war. The park now occupies that former military ground, preserving a site tied to wartime history rather than land set aside for its natural features alone. Visitors walk terrain once shaped by soldiers training for combat and by the camp's operation as a detention facility.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
