Devil's Den Annual Fall Fest

Join us at Devil's Den State Park to celebrate the fall season like it's the 1930s! Much like the families that lived during the Great Depression, the era that our park was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, we're pulling together our resources to host a family friendly fall festival. Create a mask like the children of the 1930s created their costumes, try a variety of games, and participate in some contests! Campers staying with us are welcome to decorate their campsites and pass out candy for Mother Nature’s Walkabout down in Campground Area E. Also, hang around later in the evening for some sort-of spooky legends from around the Ozarks, and some star gazing with a guest speaker.
