Moreover, unauthorized cutting of trees or limbs can disrupt the ecosystem and compromise the safety of our guests.

We want to assure you that we regularly maintain our trees to ensure their health and stability. However, if you encounter any issues with tree limbs obstructing your path or navigating into your campsite, please do not hesitate to notify the front desk. Our staff will promptly address the situation and ensure that your camping experience remains safe and enjoyable.

Plugging your EV into a standard 50-30 amp campground pedestal could cause permanent damage to both your vehicle and our electrical system. It's important to recognize that electric vehicles (EVs) rely on a steady supply of electricity to charge their batteries, a capability that most of our campground's electrical pedestals currently lack. Originally designed for intermittent loads typical of RVs, these pedestals are not equipped to support continuous EV charging.

Even if your auto manufacturer has provided a charging converter, it doesn't alter the compatibility with our campground's electrical setup. Therefore, it's imperative not to use it for connecting your EV to our pedestals.

The nightly site reservation fee in our park covers 1 RV with Full Hookups, 1 Vehicle Parking at the site, and 2 Adults and 2 Children. Plugging in anything other than an RV will require an additional charge for electric use at your site as well as damage charges for any damages incurred.

We look forward to adding EV Charging Stations too our park very soon, but for now recommend the following apps:


ChargePoint


Electrify America


EVgo


PlugShare

Even if you are an electrician, laws prohibit you from working on our pedestals unless hired to do so.

Don't Blow Your Breaker!
It is surprising how fast the amps add up that cause the breaker to trip. Knowing what can be run will prevent that inconvenient "MY POWER WENT OUT" telephone call. You can see how fast these things add up, so the next time you find yourself without power, check your breaker and take a quick inventory of just how many amps you're using. You may be surprised.
