Native to the area you may see river otters, copper head snakes, raccoons, skunk and opossums. Keeping your trash picked up and food put away will help deter the wildlife from disturbing your camp site. There are also bees, mosquitos and ticks; we suggest bringing bug spray during your stay.
No, crossing the creek is considered trespassing as that is not our property.

We allow any shape or size up to 24 feet.
Due to the campgrounds age we currently only have 20amp outlets. If you have a 30amp plug please note our electric (20amp) will not support multiple appliances being run at the same time. This causes the circuit breaker to trip.
What are your quiet hours?
Our quiet hours are from 11pm to 8am daily. If you become disruptive to other campers, you will be asked to correct your behavior twice. If you do not correct your behavior, you will be asked to leave and there will be no refund.

Yes, Route 340 passes over the campground. Automobile noise can be heard at all hours. Please note we do have several primitive tent sites that are further away from the road noise.
We have a dumpster on site that you can dispose of your trash. Please be sure to leave the site as you found it.
