There are 210 water-accessible campsites distributed throughout the park, designed for either tent camping or houseboats. Designated tent sites have a mooring aid, tent pad or level area, fire ring, privy, picnic table, and bear-proof food-storage locker. Houseboat sites include two mooring aids and a fire ring.

There are currently no fees, permits, or reservation requirements; camping is on a first-come, first-served basis. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources operates the Woodenfrog State Forest Campground on Lake Kabetogama and the Ash River Campground on Ash River.
