Wednesday, November 13th, 2024--
Due to impending cold weather, we will be turning off and winterizing the water towers at the sanitation station, the outside spigots in the campground loops, the dishwashing stations at the campground buildings, and the drinking fountains and jug fillers at the campground buildings this coming Sunday, November 17th, 2024.
We apologize for the inconvenience. Water will be available at the park office, and you will be able to dump RV holding tanks throughout the winter months.
Thank you for your continued support!

With sincerest gratitude to all who served, and most especially those we have lost.Thank You, Veterans!

Campground update --
Our second water sample has come back non-detect also, so the water is safe to drink. We will be taking down the postings and turning on the drinking fountains.
Thank you for your patience as we worked through this bump in the road.
If you are camping with us, have a great weekend!

The water sample taken yesterday afternoon came back non-detect, which means no bacteria at all. We will submit another sample today and get the results tomorrow. Please keep your fingers crossed!
Thank you for your patience!

Campground update --
After consulting with the Health Department, our campground is now under a boil water advisory. We will update the postings and turn the sanitation station towers back on within the hour.
Again, we apologize for the inconvenience.
