A reservation deposit equal to the first night's stay charge is required to reserve any RV, Tent or Lodging site.

To encourage positive treatment of our lodging, a $100 refundable cash/credit cleaning/damage deposit is required at check-in.  Damages, if the lodging smells of smoke, if excessive cleaning required, and/or missing items will be held from the deposit; the balance, if any, will be refunded after the lodging condition is checked by our Housekeeping staff after check-out, between 11:00 am - 2:00 pm.  If paid by credit, any refund normally will take three business days to show up in your account.  

We would much rather have our lodging kept in great condition and gladly refund your deposit in full rather than the alternative.  Thank you!

Poop bags and receptacles are provided at KampK9, the south & west ends of the park, and at our tent sites for your convenience. Please do not allow your pet to "go" on the grassy sites in the campground.

For the safety of our customers and pets, when walking your pet or when outside your RV, please have your pet on a leash no longer than 10 feet.  Pets may not be left alone tied outside RVs, tent sites, and inside or outside of lodging.

Our back-in Deluxe Patio Site #57 includes a Paw Pen and poop bag receptacle only for dogs of guests registered for that site.  Pets are allowed in all of our lodging (except the Fleetwood Park Model) for a fee, maximum of three pets; there is no charge for Service Animals as defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act; the pet fee applies to emotional support animals.

Our solar-heated swimming pool is open daily from 10:00 am - dusk, from early May to late September.  With a signed waiver (available at our office), registered guests are welcome to SWIM AT YOUR OWN RISK!  We do not provide a lifeguard.  There is a daily fee for visitors.  No diving, running, shoving, animals, food, drink (other than water), smoking or vaping is allowed in the fenced pool enclosure.  Only one child at a time may be on the waterslide.  We ask that swimmers shower off before entering the pool; a shower is provided inside the pool enclosure.  Infants must wear swim diapers..

Trash

Please place your trash in the dumpsters on the east & west sides of North Park.  Please recycle you aluminum, cardboard, glass & plastic.  Everyone likes a clean campground, right!  Please do not litter!

Tent Sites

Tent sites may be rented for a maximum of seven consecutive days.  Electricity from the tent sites may not be used to power air conditioners or connected to vehicles.  Water is provided to tent sites on a seasonal basis, from May - September.  Each tent site is allowed one parking space.  Tents are only allowed on tent platforms (16' x 16').

Visitor Policy

Visitors are welcome at our KOA. They must park in the extra parking spots. They cannot park in open camp sites or block roads or other sites. Only registered guests and paid visitors are allowed to use the swimming pool, Rec Room & Mini Golf.

Water & Sewer

Please run the water faucet to clear it prior to connecting to your RV.  We are on good city water, but if your site has not been used for a while, the initial water may be stale.  Use a sewer connector or gasket to connect to the sewer inlet nearest the back of your RV.  Please do not put diapers, towels or any other items in the sewer line that might block it.  Please run plenty of water down your toilet when flushing - it really helps keep things flowing!
