• Once you choose one, you’ll be taken to the next page which has a description and photos of that type of rental.
• Choose which rental best suits your needs and click on the bolded heading name.
• Read through the overview of the rental to see what it includes. You will also see photos of this type of rental; please note these are not photos of your rental … only the same rental type!

Booking Multiple Sites/Rentals

• After you have added one site and are in your Cart, you will see a statement that says “Booking for a group? Shop more available sites’ and gray box to click that says ‘Continue Shopping’.
• Choose your dates again and go through the process of selecting your site or rental.
• It will add it to your cart with the other site or rental.
• Repeat this process for as many times as you need.
• When you view your cart you should see each site or rental listed there.
• You have a limited amount of time to check out before these items will be removed from your cart!
• Remember that you will be required to pay the first night’s deposit on each site or rental that you add. All deposits will be grouped together in one payment.

Booking Multiple Different Dates

• If you are booking multiple dates with us (Ex: Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Halloween Weekends) it is best to make different reservations.
• Do not put them all together with different dates in the same cart and transaction.
• Break them up into separate dates, payments, and stays.
• This will be less confusing for you AND for our staff during booking and check in.
