For the remainder of this years camping season our weekends have been booked. There is some availability during the week, at this point.

The rush is on and the requests are coming in heavy For the July 4 holiday. We are fully booked July 2-4, 2023. Some of the email responses are not going through as the message we are getting is: “Your message wasn’t delivered to” ——- “because the address couldn’t be found, or is unable to receive mail”. We cut and paste your information from the reservation form you fill out, to our system and send emails from that. So IF you type it in wrong you will not receive a answer. Sorry

Gate opens at 8 am and closes at dark — Office & CHECK IN times are 1 pm – 9 pm

Yes, we are open and taking reservations. Please go to the reservations tab and fill out the ” RESERVATION FORM”. You will receive a email, either requesting your Credit Card information to “guarantee” your reservation or a email telling you we do not have availability for your requested dates. When we receive your card and your $5 booking fee is paid you will receive a Reservation Conformation. Until you have this conformation you do not have a reservation. The information on the form is copy and pasted into our system so if your email is not correct we cannot respond. We find we obtain much more accuracy this way as so often we cannot hear due to phones cutting in and out or background noise on one end or the other.

Thank you, Looking forward to another great camping season.

So sorry, we were completely unable to procure a supply of camp fire wood for this summer. You will need to bring your own wood to have a camp fire this year.

Do believe we all have a serious case of spring fever. This past winter (still ongoing) seems to have been a reminder to be careful of what you ask for. We were all begging for rain and we have sure gotten it. We are hopeful we will make our May 1st open with at least a few sites, for sure by the first weekend in May 5,6,7 hopeful. Will post here if it looks like we are not going to make it. It must be dry enough to not get stuck, as that is just not fun for anyone.

CAN I BRING HAY INTO CALIFORNIA?

In general, there are not specific restrictions on bringing hay into California; however, it must be free from noxious weeds and insect pests and is subject to inspection upon arrival at our border stations. If bringing hay, be sure it is loaded so the outer surface of the bales can be easily seen. Most hay passes inspection, but occasionally pests are found and the shipment is rejected. In this event, you may need to return the hay out-of-state if it cannot be easily disposed of at the station.
