Awesome state forest and campground. Not too busy and two lakes to fish from.
Elizabeth Skaggs
Gorgeous isn't the right words. More like breath taking. Went night fishing and for it being a holiday weekend it was so empty and peaceful. The sounds and echos of the owls were amazing.

Decent not a bad spot saw a few trails while out here but mainly wanted to climb the fire tower that was in this area. Awesome views of your brave enough to do it

My husband and I chose Martin State Forest to hike in the autumn of 2023. We hiked the Hardwood Lake Trail and the Martin Lake Trail. Both trails provided stunning lake views and perfect autumn color! We will be returning in the spring to hike the Tank Springs trail!

Fishing in the lakes was ok,Not a lot of picnic tables.There are two shelter houses.The campground is primitive with pit toilets.The campground is in the woods with large camp sites with picnic tables and fire Ring Just a few hiking trails and bikes trail . I'm not a hunter,but I think this would be a great area to hunt in from the wildlife I've seen
