Rick the camp host was excellent! Very personable and worked hard for everyone. Most of the campers though were horrible. Like a bunch of people who had a lifetime ban from Walmart. There was a fist fight, a dog fight with several dogs, dogs got hurt, people were bit, other folks were like teaching their kids the fine art of the f-word. We left early after the dog fight. Rick had to kick people out and call the Ranger 3x’s when we were there. No fault of Rick-a camp host who was buried by crazies. We’ll never go back.

It would be nice if the access to camp sites were two way instead of one way.

  • 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.

  • 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.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
