Welcome to
Van Buren County Conservation

The Van Buren County Conservation campgrounds are currently open and the water will be turned on the first part of April.

With the recent health concerns over the COVD-19, the shower houses in each campground (Sugema, Bentonsport & Morris) will not open until April 17th. This date will be re- evaluated if further changes are needed.
Van Buren County Conservation continues to work in coordination with the Van Buren County Board of Supervisors and Van Buren County Public Health for recommendations and response to COVID-19.

Updates will be posted on our website.
​We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
