FAQs
Can I put more than one camper on a site?
Our sites are designed for one camper per site. We will permit a tent to be set up on a site at no additional charge if your children want to experience tent camping. We will charge an extra tent charge if you are using the tent for overnight guests or additional adults that are sharing your campsite.

We are located in an area that has great hiking trails, mountain biking, trout streams, wildlife and scenic beauty. Worlds End State Park is about 10 miles west of our campground and Ricketts Glen State Park is about 25 miles east of us. There are fairs and festivals that happen locally throughout the year. There are quaint towns, with interesting shops, restaurants and museums to explore. Or, you can just build a fire, sit back and relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the campground.
Where is the nearest Walmart?
Our nearest Walmart is in Montoursville about 30 miles southwest of the campground. There is a Super Walmart in Bloomsburg about 35 miles south of the campground.
Can I use your Pavilion or Activity Building for a private event?
If we do not have campground events scheduled for our Open Pavilion or Activity Building, we will rent either space to campers or the general public for functions. Our rental agreement can be found on our website. (coming soon) We will discount the rental cost for registered campers. If you are a local not for profit organization, please contact us for further information.
How far in advance can I make a reservation?
We take reservation requests up to a year in advance but don’t accept deposits until the calendar year for which the reservation is made.
What is the latest time I can arrive for check in?
We ask that campers arrive no later than 10:00 PM on the day of their check in. That gives our campers time to set up before the 11:00 PM quiet hours begin.
What is your cancellation policy?
If your plans have changed, we ask that you let us know at least 14 days in advance of your arrival date so that we have an opportunity to rebook your site. If you do, we will be happy to refund your deposit less a $10 cancellation charge. If we receive less than 14 days notice we regret that we cannot provide a refund. There is no refund for early departure for any reason, as well as holiday/special event weekends.
