ACCOMMODATIONS

Camping On Premises
Attendees are welcome to camp on the premises for $7 per tent or vehicle per day. There is room for RV parking, but no water or electric hookups are available. A hot outdoor shower and cold water sink are available. Camping is not recommended in the months of July, August, and September, see weather info below. Most months there are usually few to no biting insects, but bring your insect protection just in case. There are 5 acres of land, about half of it clear with manicured grass, the rest wooded. The yard is private, surrounded by small horse farms and a few residences, with a campfire area, and a small boat dock fro kayaing or canoeing. There are no alligators but there are the occasional raccoons, otters, bald eagles, osprey, hawks, armadillos, and waterfowl.
