Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I bring my dog?

  Some yes, some no. Please see our Dog Policies.

• Do you have special rates for groups or organizations?

  Yes, on weekends our group rates are listed where applicable on floating equipment.  If you have an organization that is floating during the week give us a call and ask for Dustin or John.  We might be able to customize a trip just for you!

• How many people does a site hold?

  Each site holds a different amount. See the tables on the campground map page.

• How many tents will my site hold?

  We rate sites by the amount of people on average they will hold, everyone has a different sized tent so that can vary quite a bit.

• What age is safe for my child to take a float trip?

  We do not recommend any child under the age of 7; however, we leave the final decision up to parents. If you do choose to bring your younger kids along, we highly recommend rafts on the 5 mile float. We will not float infants and toddlers 3 and under.

• What happens if it floods?

  Primary concern is for safety.  If the water is too high to float or forces an evacuation of the resort rain checks will be issued for a later date of your choice, based on availability.  See policy page.

• What is your deposit and cancellation policy?

  Payment in full is due as deposit within 10 days after reservation is made. To cancel a reservation or to move a date requires a 14 day notice (30 days on lodge cabins #1-6). There is a 10% cancelation charge on any cancelation made even if you cancel it the next day. Inside 14 days all reservations are final – no refunds if cancelled.

• Can I bring my generator for my tent site?

  No, generators are loud and disruptive to the whole camping experience.

• Can I bring my golf cart, atv, or dirt bike?

  No, If there is an extenuating situation we will evaluate that on a case by case basis.

• Can I bring my own floating equipment?

  Yes, see our rates page for pricing here.

• Is alcohol allowed on the river?

  Yes, it is. No glass or styrofoam coolers on streams by state law.

• What class is Elk River?

  Elk river is a class 1 to 2 depending on rain fall. Basically meaning a nice recreational floating stream.

• Are fireworks allowed? Is there a display on the 4th?

  No, fireworks are not allowed because we are in the city limits. They also can easily set tents on fire.

  The city typically has a nice display on the Saturday closest to the 4th. We have no control over it, so if

  the city, for whatever reason, doesn't put one on please don't be mad at us.

• Can we put more people in our cabin than it says it holds?

  No, fire codes do not allow people to sleep on the floor. If you have an infant that sleeps in the with you, that is ok.

• What happens if the water is too high to float, but sites are ok to camp?

  If floats are cancelled a rain check will be issued and placed in your master account for future use. No refunds.  Rain checks for sites will not be issued if the sites are usable.
