Failure to do so may result in additional charges. During Prime Season, the office staff will provide you with a cleaning check list. During Off Season, the cleaning check list will be posted in your cabin. Check the state of your cabin within 1 hour of your arrival and report any discrepancies to the office staff or on call maintenance supervisor immediately. Additional charges will apply for cabins left dirty or damaged and will be calculated by the facility manager.

Pets are welcome, however we request that the following rules are followed:

  • Pets must Never be left unattended anywhere on the facility grounds, this includes your cabin, campsite or vehicle.
  • Pets must always be on a leash at all times and cannot be tied out by themselves. They have to be under your supervision at all times to avoid disturbing other guests.
  • Pooper Scooper rules apply, please clean up after your pet to avoid loss of privileges.
  • Pets are not permitted on cabin furniture or in any public buildings. You are kindly requested to bring a pet blanket to put over the furniture or ask for one at the main office upon check in.There is a designated area for your pet to swim other then the area permitted for guests. Please ask the Office Staff at check in time for the designated area.
  • Please note there is extra cleaning involved when bringing a pet. You must vacuum and mop thoroughly, as the next guest checking into your cabin may be allergic to animals.
  • Please note if the above rules and regulations are not adhered to, there may be extra cleaning charges and your pet privileges may be revoked. We enforce this policy because not all of our guests are animal lovers, some guests may have allergies, and some children are afraid of strange animals.
