PARKING:  Parking is designated by unit and marked. Each unit gets one spot, and any guests should park in an unnumbered spot across from the office up by the road. There is no room for boat trailer parking. However, there is off-site boat trailer storage at Timber Ridge just minutes away. Last year the cost was only $10 for the week.


Your parking spot is designated by the cabin you are staying in (ex:15) and is marked accordingly. Each unit only gets one parking spot but there are guest parking spaces that are unnumbered and located by the entrance of the resort.


Units 4 & 5 only: On Sunday night, guests in these units need to park across from the office so garbage can be picked up Monday morning.
