Can I bring my own golf cart or ATV to the camp-resort?
For safety and liability reasons, guests are not permitted to bring any personal motorized vehicles, such as golf carts. While we do not like to be the fun police, guests found in violation of this policy may be asked to leave without refund. For your convenience, we do offer golf cart rentals that allow accessing our resort easy…and fun! If you have a disability, you can bring your own golf cart, however, you must provide documentation for insurance and have a handicap placard.

Yes, E-Bikes and motorized scooters are allowed on-site. Please ensure that all speed limits and traffic signs are respected. For everyone’s safety, if reckless driving is observed, E-Bikes and motorized scooters will need to remain parked at your campsite for the remainder of your stay.
How do I rent a golf cart if I am staying overnight?
This is an add-on when booking your reservation. If you are already here and decide you would like to add on a golf cart, feel free to swing by the camp store.
How many cars are permitted at my site and may I have extra cars?
You may have two cars per site, but each car should have a car pass hanging on the rearview window. These are given with your reservation materials. We do not allow extra cars per site because we do not have enough parking space available.

We do! Quiet hours are 10 PM – 8 AM daily. Any guest under 18 years of age must be at their campsite or cabin during these hours, unless accompanied by an adult.
Are alcoholic beverages allowed at your park?
They are, but the beverage must be held in an unmarked container or koozie. This is a family-friendly camp-resort, so please be considerate of others and refrain from loud and unseemly language.
