6.  How many PEOPLE can we have on a site?
Individual sites will accommodate up to 8 persons, any more than that and you will need to book another site.

Yes. They need to be on a leash while in the campground and under your control at all times. We ask that they observe quiet hours from 10pm to 6am and please clean up after them. There is a maximum of 3 dogs allowed per site.

8.  What HOOK-UPS are available at the campground?
Seven sites offer 30amp electricity, and the rest are “dry” camping (“primitive”). NO SITES HAVE FULL HOOK-UPS. The sites with electricity vary in size, so you will be asked the length of your camping rig to make sure you’ll fit in the driveway.
   
9.   Can we bring more than one VEHICLE?
