Reservation Policy:
  • Reservations can be made no more than 6 months in advance of your desired arrival date.
  • Cabin and campsite limits will be strictly enforced. See the "clickable" Campsite Map or Site Inventory for campsite limits.
  • One site/cabin per family during peak-camping season. (May 16 - October 1)
  • An employee may not reserve a site for another employee.
  • Each reservation assumes one vehicle.
  • Walk-in reservations are also accepted, though there is no guarantee that a site will be available.  Payment can be made for walk-in reservations by check or cash.
Cancellation Policy:
  • If you are unable to make your reservation, you must call 24 hours prior to your arrival date to cancel. Please call 650-322-9256. Failure to give 24-hour cancellation notice will result in loss of camping privileges for one year. If a cancellation is received after 2:00 p.m. on the day prior to the arrival date, one night’s use will be charged at the reserved rate.
  • Cancellations are accepted only for the entire reservation dates. You cannot cancel just one day. For example, if the reservation is for Thursday through Sunday and you later try to cancel Thursday, the entire reservation is cancelled and you will need to submit a new reservation. If there is a waiting list, you will be placed at the bottom of that list.
