Overnight trips into the Sylvania Wilderness require a camping permit for a specific designated campsite, reserved through Recreation.gov. Sites are individually numbered on named lakes, so you book the lake you actually intend to sleep on. Day use is also fee-managed at the recreation area. Fees change season to season — confirm the current amount on the Recreation.gov listing before you drive up.
