14 day stay policy

If you are using the park all year or flip-flopping, you must move every 14 days from campground to campground. You must use electrical sites and pay for a 14-day camp permit ($50.50) and two weeks utilities ($84.00) in advance, unless other arrangements are made with the park manager. You must complete the 14 days on one site, and cannot return to that site the same season. You may be allowed one move if you notify the campground host. If you leave the park for more than five days, you start over with a clean slate.
