    Site fees are $25 per site. They sell firewood but I recommend bringing wood if you have any, the wood they sell is fresh cut and not cured. Don't advertise that you are brining in your own wood, they don't want outside wood brought in. Since this is our first run, everyone is own their own for meals. I camp here often and the sites are very big compared to other campgrounds. The director is going to call me back tomorrow and let me know how many hammocks we can have per site. I have camped here before with 3 other hammocks in one site and they did not have a problem. If you look at the site map, I am going for sites 62, 64 and 66. There is a bathroom/shower facility by site 148 that stays open all winter but the sites there are not as wooded and tend to be more crowded. It is a short walk to get there from the sites I am recommending. As for the "alcohol is prohibited" rule, I always bring beer with me and if you choose to also, you just have to be discrete about it and pour it into a different container.
