A. There is a $15 processing fee…period! You are able to cancel your reservation 30 days prior to your arrival and receive your money back with the exception of the $15 processing fee. Anytime after that 30 days, prior to your arrival, your reservation will not be able to be refunded. We understand that things do happen and in the event of an emergency, a manager will work with you for a one time courtesy RESCHEDULE for your stay within the same calendar year. If you have questions about our cancellation policy, please do not hesitate to contact our front desk staff @ 231-947-2770.

A.  Check-in for campsites is 3:00pm and for rental units it is 4:00pm. Check-out for campsites and rental units is 11:00am. If you do not check-out by 11:00am, additional fees will be assessed and you will be required to leave the park.

A. Yes. For an early check-in, if you have coordinated with our front desk and your campsite or rental unit is ready, you may pay an early check-in fee of $25. Early check-in is available starting at noon on the day of your arrival day; however, if your campsite and/or rental unit is not yet ready, you are welcome to use the property until check-in is possible. In such cases, check in with our front desk so we can direct you to an area that does not obstruct traffic. Note that a $25 fee will still apply for any check-in prior to 3:00 pm. for campsites or 4:00 pm. for rental units.

For late check-out, please contact the front desk the day before your departure to check availability, as late check-out may not be possible if another guest is scheduled to arrive at your site. If a late check-out is confirmed, a fee of $25 for campsites or $50 for rental units will be assessed, extending access to your site until 3:00 pm. We appreciate your cooperation in coordinating with our front desk to ensure a smooth experience for all guests

A. Yes. Starting in the 2025 camping season, you have the option to choose your campsite for a fee of $25. This option is not currently available for rental units, though it may be offered in the future. By paying the site lock-in fee, your selected campsite is guaranteed. Please note that if you are in a group and do not pay the site lock-in fee, there is a possibility that your campsite may be relocated, as we cannot guarantee that your group will remain together without this selection (we will try our best to keep you together).

A.  We require a 2-night deposit at the time your reservation is made. For holiday stays, special events, promotions and peak season, we require a 3-night deposit at the time your reservation is made. All online reservations require the entire cost of your stay to be collected at the time the reservation is made.

A. We welcome motorhomes, travel trailers, truck campers, camper vans, fifth wheels, pop-ups and tents, so please feel free to join us!

A. Yes, you are welcome to bring a tent. Our resort does not offer designated “rustic” tent campsites but rather full access to any of our full hook-up campsites. We do not allow the setup of tents on rental unit sites! We do allow for a tent to be set up with an RV on a campsite, as long as the campsite occupancy is not exceeded and as long as you are clearly established within the boundary confines of your campsite only. 

A.   Yes, our campsites are very spacious and can accommodate large RVs with multiple slide-outs. Please mention slide-outs at the time of reservation so that we place you in a size appropriate campsite!

A. Yes, we permit RV rental companies to drop off vehicles at our park. Guests are responsible for making and securing their own reservations. On the day of arrival, the RV rental company must check in with our front desk and provide appropriate contact information. The front desk will then relay your campsite location to the rental company and grant access through our locked security gate. Please note that if the RV rental company arrives before  3:00 pm check-in time, an early check-in fee will apply, if the campsite is available. Even if you have secured a site lock-in, the rental company must still check-in with the front desk. If the RV arrives before you and your campsite is ready, they will be allowed access; however, you are required to complete your check-in upon arrival. Additionally, rental RVs must be picked up by 11:00 am on the day of departure to avoid late check-out fees. The rental company must check in with the front desk again when retrieving the RV.

A.  All of our campsites are 30/50 amp full hookup campsites. Also, most of our campsites are pull-throughs, making your parking job a lot easier!

A. The majority of our campsites are pull-throughs, with only a few exceptions. If you prefer a pull-through campsite, please confirm this with our front desk when making your reservation and they can do their best to meet your request. For added assurance, you may opt for our site lock-in service, which guarantees a pull-through campsite! On our park map, any campsite marked with a black directional arrow indicates a pull-through campsite; campsites without this marker are back-in.

A.  Yes, Timber Ridge Resort is pet friendly, but we ask that you notify us in advance if you will be bringing your pet. Please do not leave your pet unattended, and please be a responsible pet owner and clean up after your friend.

Details on how to form a group for the upcoming year can be obtained by contacting the front desk. The deadline to return group paperwork for 2026 reservations is Nov. 1st, 2025. Groups will be entered in the order with which they were received (emailed) and will be formed based on availability.

We will do our best to keep your groups together, but the only GUARANTEE for a group to not be split up is to pay the $25 site lock-in fee for each campsite within the group, if available. Unfortunately, site lock-in is not currently available on rental units.

Please note that groups are subject to automatic cancellation deadlines. If a member of your group does not call to confirm their reservation before the deadline, the group may be split.
