The nearby community of Elmore gifted the park to local citizens during the Great Depression. The Civilian Conservation Corps developed facilities at Elmore State Park back in the 1930s. In 2002, the park became listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Today, Elmore State Park welcomes day-trippers and campers to its grounds seasonally between Memorial Day and Columbus Day. Guests must pay a fee for day visits and camping. The park’s Lake Elmore and Elmore Mountain offer a mix of outdoor activities, from hiking and picnicking to fishing and swimming. Today, Elmore accommodates 45 tent/trailer sites and 15 lean-tos.
