Do I need a Park Passport?
Admission is charged per person. Two adults at an $8 park pay $16, so the $99 All Park Passport, which covers everyone in the vehicle, pays for itself after about seven such visits. See the full list of all state parks, fees and passports.
Are dogs allowed?
Most parks allow dogs in outdoor areas on a leash no longer than six feet, and not in cabins or lodging. Beach rules differ, so check the park page. Stroller rules are not stated on the park pages we read; call the park office.
