A valid recreational permit is required to use a motor vehicle within Lake Afton Park and shall be prominently displayed on the vehicle. The park superintendent shall issue daily and annual permits. Permits may be purchased from a designated fixed location within the park at the following rates.

Daily Recreational Permit (valid until noon of the calendar day following purchase) - $5.00.
Additional Day Permits: An additional $5.00 fee will be assessed for daily recreational permits purchased from park security.

Annual Recreational Permit (valid for the calendar year) - $30.00 and additional vehicles having the same ownership are $15.00.

Exceptions: A recreational permit shall not be required during certain days each year when large events take place. Those dates will be posted in a prominent location at park entrances. A recreational permit is not required on vehicles operated by staff, vendors or visitors of the Judge Riddel Boy's Ranch, shooting range, or observatory, unless those persons are actively involved in recreation on the Lake Afton premises. There is no recreational permit fee for fishing.

Camping Permits

Fees for a Lake Afton camping permit purchased at the park office or at the self-pay station shall be as follows:

	Regular Rate	Senior Rate - 62 and older & Military
Primitive Camp (no electricity or water)	$13.00/day $76.00/week	$12.00/day $69.00/week
Electric Hook-up	$17.00/day $104.00/week	$15.00/day $90.00/week
Electric & Water	$19.50/day $119.00/week	$17.50/day $105.00/week
*Late Payment Fee	$7.00	$7.00
An additional $5.00/day fee will be assessed for Camping permits purchased from park security. Water hook-ups are available at only 16 sites, and there is an extra $2/day charge for these sites.
* This is a new fee that will affect anyone that is camping at Lake Afton Park, and they do not pay in time when their permit expires, and they come in 2,3 or more days later to extend their permit. Also, we do not allow any discounted fees until a camping permit is brought to current status. Example, if someone paid for a week’s worth of camping and their permit ran out 3 days ago, they will not be allowed to purchase another week’s worth of camping at the discounted rate to make up for the 3 days they are late. Starting 1/1/19, they would be charged for 3 single days camping plus the $3.00/day late fee before they could purchase the discounted weekly camping permit.
