Tent Camping Rules

To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, please familiarize yourself with our tent camping rules.

• Age Requirement: All campers must be 18 years or older to camp without a parent or legal guardian. If you’re under 18 and with a guardian, be prepared to show proof of legal guardianship – we do check IDs!
• Camping Fees: Prices are per person, per night, and our summer rates are currently in effect. Please note that prices may be higher on major holidays/holiday weekends and are subject to change without notice. Sales tax isn’t included in the listed prices.
• Admission: Your camping fee includes daily admission into the park, but scuba diving fees are extra.
• No Pets: We love animals, but for the safety and comfort of all our guests, pets aren’t allowed in the camping areas.
• Site Maintenance: Please keep your campsite clean and orderly at all times.
• Lantern Use: To protect our trees, please hang lanterns from ropes suspended between trees. Don’t attach them directly to trees, as the heat can harm them.

• Designated Camping Areas: Camping is not permitted on the grassy areas surrounding Ginnie Spring or the Devil’s Springs systems.
