This Group Site Cancellation Policy does not apply to single, or double sites.

Due to the increased client pressure to secure a campsite, clients are arriving or making a reservation days in advance of a busy weekend, erecting a tent/parking a trailer and leaving the property only to return for the weekend. Under Recreation Sites and Trails Rules, this does not constitute “Occupying the Site” and is not allowed. This prevents people arriving during the week who want to camp. As well, you are not allowed to pay to hold a site for a friend. First come, first serve sites are exactly that. The first person to arrive that wants to occupy a site for camping purposes will get the site.
