We ask campers respect these rules

to make our campground enjoyable for all.

Feel free to ask any questions or report any concerns to us.

A family is defined as 2 adults (at least 21 years old) and up to 3 unmarried children (under age 18) living within the  same household.  Valid form of ID must be presented for each person over age 18 at registration.  Children should be instructed about basic rules (no running through other campsites, proper disposal of juice boxes, etc.) One or two cars allowed on each site (Site Permitting). We will let you know where additional vehicles should be parked.  Extra persons will require additional charges, please ask.

As we are a long term campground campers may be brought in during most daylight hours and must be approved ahead of time.   Quiet time is 10:00 p.m.-8:00 a.m. Sunday through Thursday evenings and 11:00 p.m. – 8:00 a.m. Friday & Saturday evenings.  No vulgar/foul/abusive language should be used at any time.
Visitors/Guest must be registered by text to 860-458-9225 before arrival by the camper they will be visiting.  They will be instructed where to park. No charge for immediate family (still must be registered).  Non-family overnight visitors will be charged $12.00 each.   Day visitors will be charged $6.00 each. NOTE:  your visitors/guest should use your facilities (toilet, shower, etc)

CAMPFIRES / FIREWOOD

Campfires are allowed except under extreme forest fire danger conditions (drought or high winds).  Firewood may be purchased at the campground for a reasonable fee for your enjoyment.

We have wood for purchase at a reasonable fee.
No cutting of wood is allowed within the campground.  Leave fireplaces where they are, do not leave fires unattended, and douse fires thoroughly upon retiring or leaving the property.
