Email going out tomorrow morning but here you go:

WE ARE OPENING!!
Hi Campers!

Great news! We're OPENING this Sunday, August 23rd! 🎉

The second round of water test results came back with an all-clear—just like the first round—and we are so excited to welcome you back!

2026 Season: Sunday, August 23rd – Monday, October 19th

We've extended the season! Fall is beautiful here, so come on up and enjoy it with us. We are so excited to reopen and begin rebuilding, but we will need your support! We truly appreciate everyone who has stuck with us through this process.

Frequently Asked Questions & Important Information

When will we start answering the phones?
TODAY—Thursday, August 20th!

To start, please ONLY call if:

You need to confirm or cancel a current reservation that is still on file for this year or was carried over from last year, OR
You need to make a new reservation for this summer/fall.

IMPORTANT: We are ONLY accepting fully contained RVs right now. There are no bathrooms available yet, and no tent camping. The dump station at the office will be accessible.

We will begin taking 2027 reservations sometime in September, so stay tuned for more information!

Where will the office be?
We will temporarily be working out of the Creekside Cabin while the new office is being set up, skirted, and fitted with stairs. Please come to the Creekside Cabin to check in, or give us a call and we can check you in over the phone when you arrive.

What will the office hours be?
To start, we will be open daily from 10:00 AM–6:00 PM. If we have enough reservations to support longer hours, we will return to 8:00 AM–6:00 PM.

Will we have anything for sale at the office?
No. This year, we will not have ice or other supplies for sale at the office. However, we are lucky to have McGee Creek Lodge right next door, and they are fully stocked with ice, food, fishing supplies, camping supplies, and more.

Will there be picnic tables?
To start, No. We do not currently have any picnic tables. They are costly, and we don't have anywhere to store them during the winter.

We will definitely have picnic tables next year, and if we are able to get some this year, we will—but we cannot promise that, so please plan on not having a picnic table at your site this year.

Will you be escorting campers to their sites?
We will do our best! We are still very busy with projects around the park, and those projects will take up much of our time.

If you really need help getting to your site, or if you have a particularly tricky site, please ask us for assistance. We will do our best to help. Es**rt service will be significantly limited and/or unavailable on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Will the trout ponds be open?
Yes! Starting Friday, August 28th.

The trout ponds will be open:

Friday & Saturday: 8:00 AM–5:00 PM
Sunday: 10:00 AM–6:00 PM

Will there be Wi-Fi?
Yes! A hotspot will be available at the Creekside Cabin/temp office.

What can you expect around/in the park during your stay?
We will be working on getting the new office and bathhouses set up. While there won't be excessive noise, you may see our team continuing to work on these areas as we get them back in shape. All other areas of the park will be operating normally and will look and function as they normally do.

We are incredibly excited to see everyone again and begin this next chapter. Thank you for your patience, encouragement, and support as we work to rebuild and get everything back up and running.

Come out and support our reopening and rebuilding—we need you! ❤️

We can't wait to see you!

Happy Camping!
Thomas and Emily Forte, Managers
John Neubauer and Greg Jennison, Owners

I keep getting requests to see what the park looks like after the fire. We are still working in the park at the office/bathhouse location getting it prepped for delivery. So while it's not completely done, here's where we stand today with how it looks at the moment. We will still be working for awhile to add back border logs and trees, plants, flowers that were lost.

Hi Campers,

We're checking in with another update on our progress toward reopening the park.

First, thank you again for your continued patience and support as we work through the final steps and regulatory requirements needed to reopen.

Since our last update, we did experience 2 additional delays during the cleanup process. The cleanup crew was required to return to the campground to remove additional soil and submit new samples for testing. We are also being directed to take more water samples. Additional details on both are below.

Where are we today?
We're happy to report that the latest soil test results came back clear. As of today, the park has passed soil testing, and a final walkthrough is scheduled for Friday to officially clear the cleanup portion of the reopening process.

What's left before we can reopen?
The final step is completing another round of water testing.

Although our original water sample came back with excellent results, the state requested additional testing at more locations throughout the campground. These samples were collected this morning, and we've been told it may take up to 10 days to receive the results.

While we wait for those results, we will be:

Removing the remaining burned trees.
Preparing the office and bathhouse sites for the delivery of our new buildings.

What will reopening look like?
When we reopen, we'll use the Creekside Cabin as our temporary office while our new office and bathhouses are being installed.

Our reopening will happen in phases. Initially, we'll accept reservations for the remainder of the summer and fall for self-contained RVs only. Since our bathhouses will still be under construction, all campers will need to have their own restroom facilities. A dump station will be available near the office.

When do we expect to reopen?
As of today, we're targeting August 23rd as our reopening date.

If our water test results are returned sooner than expected, we'll open earlier and notify everyone immediately by email. And if there are any other issues that pop up, this date can be affected by that as well.

When will you start answering the phone?
We're aiming to resume phone service about one week before reopening. We'll send an email update as soon as our phones are back online.

Please only call if you are confirming or making a new reservation for this summer and fall. Please don't call for 2027 reservations until you are informed to do so. We need the lines to be open for immediate reservations (2026) only at this time.

Where can you get ice, souvenirs, and other essentials while you are here?
We have great news! The Lodge, located just across the street within walking distance, will be open and offering:

Ice
Souvenirs
Camping/Fishing/Food Essentials
McGee Creek Cafe

They'll be happy to welcome you, and your support will help them as they continue recovering as well.

When will the trout ponds reopen?
The trout ponds will reopen when the campground reopens.

If you need restroom facilities while fishing, restrooms will be available at The Lodge until our bathhouses are back in service.

If you have questions that aren't answered here, please refer to our previous update sent on July 18, which covers many frequently asked questions.

Thank you again for your patience, support, and business throughout this process. We're looking forward to welcoming everyone back very soon!

See you soon,
Emily and Thomas Forte, Managers
