Our camp host Lyssa was awesome. She brought us firewood, ice, and was so nice. It’s great when you have such a nice camp host!

The roads are tight for a large camper. It is a good idea to view your site before reserving to make sure you can get in it. Beautiful sites, private, trails, and things to do. It is a great campround even if they don't have showers.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Reserved sites are held until noon the day after arrival; occupancy is required by the second day to keep the reservation.

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.

Site types & loops

  • Some campsites can be reserved for long-term stays for the entire season.
  • Accessible campsites can be reserved by anyone, not just those with disabilities.

  • Once your stay begins, reservation modifications are not allowed.
  • Refund requests incur a $10 processing fee, and non-refundable fees will not be returned.

Fires & fuel
