Parking Information
When you first arrive, you are welcome to park in the main parking lot while you go through the check-in process.
After checking in, feel free to take a cart to your car to load up your belongings. You are welcome to take these carts to your cabin to unload. Please be sure to return them to the parking area so that others may use them.
Once you have unloaded your belongings, you will need to take your car to the auxiliary parking lot. Please return to the Registration area to be escorted to the auxiliary parking lot, and then shuttled back to the campsite.
Because parking is limited in the parking lot nearest the campsite, those spaces are reserved as a designated "staging area" to allow guests to unload their belongings only. Permanent parking in this area is reserved for guests with special needs or mobility issues. If you need special consideration regarding parking, please speak with someone at Registration.
Thank you.
