The individual sites can have a maximum of eight people and two tents each, and the group sites must have a minimum of nine people, but not more than 24, with a maximum of 10 tents per site. Two toilets are found at the front of the campground, and while there isn't any running water, water is available 24 hours a day at the visitor center. Before pitching your tent, know that only tent camping is permitted; fires are permitted only in the fire rings; dead wood may be collected for firewood, but no live trees should be cut; and no one may camp within the park for more than 14 consecutive days, and no more than 28 days within a six-month period. Camping fees are $10/night for a regular tent site and $20/night for a group site; [reservations are required](http://www.recreation.gov/camping/congaree-national-park/r/campgroundDetails.do'contractCode=NRSO&parkId=74318), 877-444-6777.
