The Lock Site Location charge reserves a specific site number rather than a site type. While we guarantee your chosen site type and amenities, our automated optimization system and team members may adjust site locations.

Locking your site ensures that exact location is held exclusively for you and cannot be changed or reassigned. This limits flexibility for extended stays and overall campground flow.

This option is optional and recommended for returning guests who know exactly which site location they prefer or groups reserving individually. 

Buddy sites follow the same structure of early and late check out as all of our other RV sites. There is only one charge regardless of if one or both RVs arrive early or stay late. The only time there is two separate charges for a buddy site is for services such as pump outs.
