VISITORS

Friends of registered campers are welcome to visit during the day and will need to vacate the campground by 10:00 pm. There is a $5.00 ($10.00 on holidays) per person per day visitor fee required upon entrance to the campground. All visitors must register at the office. Additional vehicle parking is available in the visitor parking lots. Campground management reserves the right to limit visitors and refuse admission.

PET POLICY

We welcome well-behaved pets and their humans.  We expect pet owners to be courteous of the rights of others to a safe, clean, and comfortable camping experience. Pets that are hostile or aggressive will be asked to leave the campground, along with their owners.  All pets must remain on a leash no longer than 6 feet when out on the grounds, except inside the doggy playground.  Please, do not leave your pets unattended and always remember to clean up after them. Constant barking bothers other guests. If your pet is too vocal, you'll need to find other accommodations.

QUIET HOURS

10PM - 8AM. Please allow others to get a good nights sleep.

FIREWOOD

Please do not bring firewood into the campground. If you do, you will be asked to keep it inside your vehicle and remove it from the property immediately.
Firewood is available for purchase. $9 for one bundle, $25 for 3 bundles, and $40 for 5 bundles.This wood has been heat treated by a DCNR certified supplier and kiln dried to kill off any insects or disease.They give you shade. They provide oxygen. Please help keep our trees available for future generations.Pests traveling in outside firewood, or pallets, have killed off hundreds of trees on the property.
Wood that looks clean and healthy can still have tiny insect eggs, or microscopic fungi spores, that will start a new and deadly infestation.
Aged or seasoned wood is still not safe. Just because it is dry does not mean that bugs can't crawl onto it!
So please, don't bring firewood into the park, even if you think it looks fine.Thanks for understanding why we can't allow outside firewood, and for helping us save the remaining trees on our property!
