Please park on designated campsites only. Each Cabin (A, B, C, F) and campsites are allowed one car, with a $5 fee for one additional vehicle (not to exceed 2 vehicles per site). Violators are subject to a $25 fine and having their vehicle towed. Please respect our parking rules during your stay.

Can I have guests during my stay!

Yes you may! Please inform your guests that they MUST register and pay the visitor fee at the office. After they have registered and paid, they are welcome to enjoy the park amenities with you.

Q: Can I bring my pet camping with me?

If you are booking a stay at a campsite, yes! We allow one pet per campsite (additional pets $10 each, 2 pets max.) as long as it is kept quiet and on a leash. All pets must be up-to-date on vaccinations before visiting the campground. No vicious breeds allowed.

Q: Are pets allowed in the rental units?

Unfortunately no. You are welcome to bring your pets to a campsite, but we do not permit pets on reservations for any of our cabin rentals. Pets are not allowed in any Building, Rental Unit, Bath House, Barn, Annex, Store/Office and the Pond/Beach.

Q: How do I make my reservation?

You can call or book online to make a reservation. All reservations must be paid in full at time of booking by Visa, MasterCard or Discover. RESERVATIONS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
