Campground Rules - All Guests

Quiet hour is 11:00 pm and will be enforced. Three reprimands within one evening will be grounds for eviction. Seasonal Owners: Repeated visits from management throughout the season will be grounds for eviction.

Please supervise your children at all times, especially near the river, ponds and woods. No racing of bikes or riding after dark is allowed. Children must respect the playground equipment or they will not be allowed to use it. Golf cart and lawn mower usage is prohibited by any child under the age of 16. 

We love our furry friends! Please keep your pet on a leash at all times. Make sure your leash is the proper length so your pet is confined to your site. Pets will not be left unattended to bark, dig, or pose a threat to a camper's safety. No pets are to be tied to trees or left to run at river or ponds. You are required to clean up after your pets. If these rules are not complied with, you will be asked to leave your pet at home. Sorry, no Rottweilers or Pit Bulls allowed.

Excessive use of intoxication beverages, needless noise, swearing, commotion, disturbing the peace of your neighbors, destruction of private property, personal assault, or any violation of the park rules will be adequate grounds for arrest and immediate eviction. 

Don't forget while here your camp area is your home. Do not trespass through another site for any reason. This means, do not walk through a lot to get to the river or to your lot quicker. Above all, keep your pets off your neighbors' lawn.

You are allowed to cut up your own firewood at your own risk. The campground will not assume any responsibility for accidents, so be careful of your surroundings. No firewood leaves the campground; it is for campground use only. Absolutely no outside firewood can be brought into the campground. The campground sells firewood for $20 a tractor bucket load.

Please place your garbage in plastic bags and deposit in dumpsters located by the fish cleaning house. Fish remains must be wrapped in newspaper. Keep fish cleaning house clean at all times. This is the responsibility of the campers. Absolutely no fish guts in the dumpster or in pit toilets. Dumpsters are to be used for campground garbage only. 

Turn off lights as you leave the bath house, pit toilets or fish cleaning house.

During storms, seek shelter in the cement block bath house.

No motorized vehicle shall be driven after dark without lights on. No major repairs to automobiles, boats, etc. in campground. Park all vehicles on your campsite or parking area. We have more people and children utilizing the campground and more chances of someone getting seriously injured. After three warnings, it will be grounds for eviction.

If boat remains tied to our dock past the one day limit, you will be charged $20 a day until it is removed. Only one boat allowed per campsite due to our limited space.

It is your responsibility to show proof of adequate insurance on your travel trailer, boats, boat trailers, UTVs, golf carts, etc. to cover any damage created by accident, man or nature. The management will not accept responsibility for your own personal property.
