Linn County Parks & Recreation (LCPR) is happy to announce that we will begin welcoming campers back to Linn County's campgrounds as soon as possible. LCPR is planning on phasing in the opening of it's campgrounds by May 15, 2020 and possibly earlier at some facilities.
Please keep in mind in order to keep our campgrounds open we will be asking campers to adhere to COVID-19 safety policies such as; physical distancing, wearing face masks when approaching other people and not congregating in groups of ten or more.
If you have questions, please email the Linn County Parks Office at [email protected]. We will answer your questions as soon as we can. Please do not leave multiple phone messages as it will only slow down our response time.
Campers and guests will needs to supply their own soap and hand sanitizer. Please keep in mind that our facilities are only as clean as the last person who used them.
