- Shaded areas and grassy patches for pets to roam comfortably
- Space between lots to reduce stress for sensitive pets
- Nearby access to walking trails and open areas
- Options for pull-thru or back-in sites for easier setup with pets onboard
We understand the unique needs of pet-owning campers. That’s why every pet-friendly site is within walking distance of clean-up stations, trash receptacles, and fresh water taps for your pets.

Let your dog enjoy the freedom to run, play, and socialize safely in our fenced off-leash dog park. This thoughtfully designed space includes:
- Agility obstacles for high-energy pups
- Shaded seating areas for owners

To ensure all guests — both human and animal — enjoy their stay, we follow a clear set of pet-friendly campground policies:
- Leashes are required in all public spaces outside the dog park
- Aggressive pets are not permitted for the safety of others
- Limit of 2 pets per site, unless pre-approved by management

We pride ourselves on maintaining a safe and peaceful atmosphere for all campers. Our staff reserves the right to enforce rules and request removal of disruptive pets if necessary.

For water-loving canines, the nearby river offers safe entry points where you can let them splash (with supervision). While pets aren’t allowed inside paddle boats, they’re welcome to relax onshore with another member of your group.
