*** Large single unit RVs are not suitable for the campground roads. Even though a site might have a 40 foot parking space, a 40 foot long RV can’t navigate through the campground. Also please remember that site parking length includes trailer and vehicle.***

Water Faucets:
• While safe to drink, the potable water in the campground has a high iron content and visitors may wish to bring their own drinking water.
• Visitors may not connect hoses to faucets for sanitation concerns.
• Faucets are meant for drinking water only. For sanitation reasons there can be no bathing or cleaning at faucets.
• All grey water must be properly disposed of at the dump station. 
Trash:
• Trash should be placed in dumpsters. If the dumpsters are full then trash must be properly stored in a bear box until the dumpster is emptied, or can be taken to the nearest dumpster. This is to avoid wildlife getting in the trash and dispersing it through the forest.  
• Make sure to properly close/lock dumpsters to avoid wildlife getting in the trash.
Campsite:
• Camp only in designated camping areas. Areas beyond the campground could have hazard trees. 
• Only park in designated parking spaces. Parking off of pavement in camping areas is prohibited.

• Keep food in bear boxes at all times. 
• If visitors need to hang things they can use rachets straps or bungees. Using screws, nails, and staples is prohibited. 
• Stapling into the preparation tables and/or picnic tables is prohibited due to the damage it causes. 
• Cutting or damaging standing trees is prohibited.  
• Collecting dead wood is highly encouraged. Visitors must have a wood cutting permit to cut wood on the ground.
