First time camping in a trailer. Many of the sites had wonderful views. A17 is a waterfront with a perfect view. A ledge for fishing. Big bass flopping. Toilets clean. The whole place is nice. Jim gave great advice. There is no arrival check in. Too easy.
A17 had a bit of grade, two 2x4 (3 inches too much) to level the wheels, drop the hitch 3 inches to level front to back. A18 looked the same. A16 looked more level.

The only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is the other campers/randos. The multiple times I've stayed here there have been random people at my site.

First was a group of 20 high school kids sitting around a fire. The second was two guys who were running around the beach and walking around my site after dark. Both groups of people were coedial and didn't cause me any harm. They just hung around though. Be prepared for this if you stay here

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
