Campground Activities

Saturday Morning Breakfast

Stop by the office at 8:30 am and enjoy a meal where the proceeds go to the Care Camps Program. Breakfast includes waffles, eggs, bacon, fruit, pastry, juice and coffee. Adults $4, kids under 14 $3. Get there early because when the food runs out the kitchen closes.

Friday Evening Movie - G and PG

Kid oriented movies every Friday Night starting at 6:00. Send the kids over for some quiet time when you're setting up your site. We'll keep them occupied for at least 90 minutes. Movies are shown in the main office.

Ice Cream Discounted Friday Nights

From 6 to 8, in conjunction with the Friday night movie, get a 10% discount on all ice cream in the dairy case!

Potluck Suppers

Potluck suppers are scheduled around major holiday weekends. Inquire at the Kampground if we are planning on during your stay.

Fossil and Gem Panning

Uncover Fossils from 15,000 to 340,000,000 years old in our sluice. Find Gemstones and Minerals from around the world. This activity is fun and educational. Large gem and fossil bags are the best value. Once you see the treasures that the kids are uncovering you'll want to do one too!

Horse Shoes

Borrow the horse shoes from the office and have a match behind the kabins!

Campground News

New ADA Chair Pool Lift Ordered, Awaiting Delivery

To comply with the New ADA regulations we have purchased a Handicapped Chair Lift. The Lift fulfills all the requirements of the new legislation. Since we have a purchase order we are currently in compliance with the new ADA requirement. The Lift has been delivered we will have a contractor prepare to install the mounting plate for both the pool and the hot tub.

In consideration of the cost and sophistication of this unit, the tripping hazard, and the possibility of children wishing to play on it, it will be available on request for those campers who truly require the use of the device. We also have changed our reservation and check in questionnaire to ask if the camper requires assistance.

The Lift is stored in close proximity to thee pool and is designed to be mounted in a manner of minutes by one person. The unit we have chosen can be swapped between hot tub and pool.

What's New in our Cabins?

We have upgraded our standard 4" mattresses to 5" memory foam mattresses on the full size beds. The bunk beds will be upgraded in the near future.
