Campers without a reservation can look at the campground map at the self-pay station kiosk and determine which site type they would like. Then, review the Incoming Camper List to see how many campsites are available in the particular campground area (Water, Electric & Sewage- Sites 1-10 or Water & Electric- Sites 11-20). Campers may then drive down to the campground and pick out a site and return to the self-pay kiosk by the headquarters building and fill out the self-pay envelope per the written instructions. The next morning, campers should return to the headquarters building to check-in (register) by 9am the next morning to ensure that all information has been entered properly and there are no outstanding fees due.
