Camping is allowed in most forest areas. But in a popular forest like the White River, it's especially important to be kind to the land. Don't build any new fire rings; better yet, use a camp stove. Camp well away from lakes and streams. And you know to pack out your trash.

If you prefer a developed campground, the Dow Campground guide is an excellent reference. Here are some good ones culled from their pages...
