Advance reservations are limited to one weekend campsite per family per month for July and August. Additional weekend reservations for July or August will be accepted after April 1st. For groups wishing to reserve multiple sites, these sites must be located on different islands. The campsite fee is a flat rate per campsite per night. All registrations must be paid in full before the site is considered reserved. For checks being sent by mail, as soon as we are made aware of a reservation, we will hold a site for a three day period. If payment has not been received in that time the campsite will be made available for general rental.
