CAMPING INFORMATION

If you are planning on camping, you can set up your tent at 1pm on check-in day (5/24/24), and checkout at 12pm noon (5/27/24). Since 6 tents are allowed on each site, I will be able to assist you in suggesting where to camp, as you may know other people who are camping nearby, and you can split the cost of 1 site (6 tent site). My goal is to have several Sites booked out near each other so we basically have one big site together. Please book your campsite before they're sold out! There are also cabins available for rent, although I'm not sure what is available. If you have a camper, there are camper sites as well (no electricity). Reach out if you need help. You will find the booking site here. Under "site number" you'll see a map of the tent sites. Use this when booking near other guests. Please feel free to coordinate with people you know! **NICOLE'S BRIDESMAIDS WILL HAVE AN AIRBNB NEAR BY WITH POWER FOR THE EVENING BEFORE THE WEDDING (5/23/24). ALL FEMALES WELCOME TO JOIN.***
