📋 Standard rules — State Parks

The publicly posted baseline for this land type. Individual units add their own rules — the official page always controls.

  • Entry pass or day-use fee per your state (see the pass table above)
  • Pets leashed (typically 6 ft); some beaches/buildings off-limits
  • Collecting is usually prohibited or limited — many states allow personal-use berry/mushroom picking, many don't; check the park page
  • Camp in designated sites by reservation; quiet hours typically 10pm–6am; alcohol rules vary by state
  • Hunting only where and when specifically posted
