Parking

There is an extra vehicle fee of $8.00/night on the 2nd vehicle in each single campsite and on the 3rd & 4th vehicle in any double campsite, provided these vehicles are not joined to the 1st vehicle by a hitch and towed onto the site. In the case of motorcycles, the 1st and 2nd are considered to be one vehicle, and the 3rd and 4th are also considered to be one vehicle. So, the fee would be a single $8.00/night of stay for the 3rd/4th motorcycle.
