A Modern Touch: Online Reservations Made Easy

Gone are the days of waiting in line at registration kiosks. The campground now offers a streamlined reservation and payment system through the website Roverpass. Booking your spot has never been easier; simply select your site online, just as you would for a vacation rental on platforms like Airbnb. Please note that cash payments will no longer be accepted at the campground, ensuring a seamless, contactless experience for all visitors.

Meet Your Hosts: Mark and Andrea

To enhance your stay, the campground is thrilled to introduce its new on-site hosts, Mark and Andrea. With years of experience in campground hospitality, this dynamic duo is ready to assist guests, keep the grounds pristine, and share stories around the fire. Their welcoming presence promises to make every visitor feel at home.

Campsite Upgrades: Options for Every Camper

Whether you’re an RV adventurer or a tent-camping traditionalist, the campground’s updated facilities cater to a variety of preferences:

  • Premium Sites: Seven premium spots now line the front of the grounds, offering breathtaking views of the horse arena and Saratoga Passage. These sites are equipped with 50amp, 30amp, and 20amp electrical receptacles, as well as frost-free water hydrants. Nightly rate: $45.
  • Standard Sites: Thirteen additional sites provide 30amp and 20amp hookups along with water access. Nightly rate: $35.
  • Tent Camping: A designated area for traditional tent camping offers access to drinking water, allowing campers to enjoy a more rustic experience.

All stays are capped at 14 days, and a public dump station is available for $5 per use.

Eco-Friendly Landscaping: Beauty Meets Sustainability

The recent construction wasn’t just about functionality—it also prioritized the environment. Newly leveled grounds are being landscaped with native plants and water-loving species, which will enhance drainage, support pollinators, and beautify the area. Campers are kindly asked to tread lightly while the new greenery takes root.
