Send requests for multiple sites in the same envelope.   


EACH SITE must be registered to a 21+ adult camping on that site.   Sites must be occupied by campers overnight.


One person may send in/call with the request, but  may not rent multiple sites under one name.


A $125 deposit is required for each site requested.


For EACH SITE requested by mail, include:
