HEY CAMPERS! SO THIS IS WHAT THE CAMP LOOKS LIKE RIGHT NOW...PICS WERE TAKEN TODAY! WE WILL KEEP YOU POSTED!

Hello Campers!! Update: Due to the excessive rain we have had at the camp, campers that have sites on fox drive, park side, and coyote road will not be able to drive on their roads. Unfortunately you will need to go by foot to access. You will be able to drive to your road but will not be able to drive ON the road. Also water truck will not be able to deliver to those roads so please bring containers that you can fill.... Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause...on a good note we have no fire bans so thats a perk! See you all soon! Holly & Bruno
