pets welcome

Being a “Pet-Friendly” resort means more than just allowing pets on the premises. It means welcoming your pet and providing the accommodations to make them as comfortable as possible.

Dogs are allowed in the Camping Cabins & Standard Teepees for $10; Glamping Tents & Luxury Teepees for $25 per night/stay. The Wedge Cabins and Treehouses are $50 per night/stay. Pet fees are collected at the time of check-in.

To assure the comfort and safety of your pets, our staff, and other guests, we have established a few basic policies.  Pets must be kept on a leash, picked up after, and not left tied up outside while the guest is away. We ask that the owners be courteous to other guests and follow the pet policies signed at check-in. Pets are to be kept on a leash and not left unattended at any time. For your convenience, you'll find doggie bag stations around the Camp Resort to clean up after your pet.
