Registered guests can invite others to join them. Your guest will need to purchase a guest pass: $10 per guest, and children under two are admitted free of charge. This helps manage the resort’s capacity and maintenance. Guests must depart by 10:00 pm. Wrist bands can be obtained at the office. Thank you for being so understanding.
2. Pool Rules: The pool is open from dawn to dusk daily. There is no lifeguard on duty. Swim at your own risk. Under no circumstances may children ages 13 and under be in the pool area without direct adult supervision. Proper swimming attire must be worn in the pool. Children who are not potty-trained must wear swim diapers. Please use the on-site shower before entering the pool. No diving or running around the pool. No glass bottles, containers, or other glass objects are permitted in the pool area. No pets are allowed in the pool area, with no exceptions. The bath load is 20 people at one time in the pool.
3. Put Everything Back: If you moved the picnic table or other items on the site, push them back. If you create holes or trenches, please fill them in; they can be dangerous for new campers. Please keep your site tidy. Upon departure, please dispose of all trash in the designated dumpster. The dumpster is near the activity center behind the Conex storage container.
4. Keep pets on a leash and Tidy up After Them: Pets are welcome but must be kept on leashes (six-foot maximum length) or inside and not left unattended. Whether at your campsite, walking through the campground, or on hiking trails, always clean up after your pet and dispose of it properly. Please ensure that your pet stays off other campers’ sites. No excessive barking allowed. We have a dog park for your convenience. Pets cannot be left unattended outside of the buildings. Pets are not permitted in or near any buildings, bathrooms, or playground areas. They are prohibited due to health codes. A pet fee applies to cabin rentals. The cost is $100 per stay.

It is the parents’ responsibility to enforce this rule. The speed limit in the resort is 10 mph. NO UTV OR ATV. A $10 daily trail fee applies when you bring your golf cart.

9. Laundry Facility: The laundry room is open 24/7 and is tap-to-pay. Laundry soap is available in the coin-operated vending machine. Quarters and dollar bills are available from the office.
10. "Only you can prevent forest fires." Be sure to put out your fire before bed, before heading out for the day, or when you leave the site at the end of your stay. The general rule of thumb is to ensure the coals or ashes are cold. Firewood is available on the west side of the pool area for $10 per bundle. Leave your extra firewood. If you have no use for it at home. With fewer items to pack, this is one of the camping rules that benefits you and the next user of your site.
11. Be A Good Neighbor: Please avoid cutting through anyone’s campsite. People pay to be at the campground, making the site their personal space for the duration of their stay. Don’t intrude just to save a few minutes on your walk to your destination.
12. Respect Quiet Hours: 10 pm to 8 am. These are put in place to encourage tranquility and peace during the restful hours. Voices carry in the still of night, so be respectful of this time. Be mindful of your early-morning routine as well, which can be just as disruptive. No foul words, please.
13. Use Lowlights: When driving through the campground or unloading your car in the dark, turn off your headlights and use your lowlights. For those around you, the bright lights can disturb sleep. Once you arrive at the campground, use lanterns and flashlights.
14. Repairs: No vehicle repairs are to be done in the resort. This includes oil and tire changes. Please refrain from washing RVs and other vehicles.
