Wireless Internet(Wifi) PDF Print E-mail
Our Wifi coverage is being expanded and should cover the entire park by the end of the first week in July. A new antenna is being added that should provide medium to high signal strength for almost the entire campground and we're upgrading some other equipment to improve performance at the same time.
Wireless Internet
Thanks to a few new Wireless Antennas our Wireless Network has grown a lot.  Our coverage area has gone from 8 Full-Hookup sites, our Office, and Pool to approximately 80% of the park!  While it's still not the entire campground it is a big improvement and much more convenient for our campers. We expect to have nearly 100% of the park covered by the end of the first week in July, 2008.

If you let us know that you would like Wifi on your site when you sign in or make a Reservation we will do our best to place you within the coverage area.  In addition to our Campsites you will be able to access our Wireless out by the Pool, on picnic tables near the Telephone, and we have benches by the Office and Playground as well.

Even if you end up on a site at the edge of our coverage area and your large metal motorhome reduces the signal strength to very low or nothing at all, you can usually just step outside and sit on the picnic table to get a good signal again.  Rain would interfere with this of course, so we've placed picnic tables under a large roof attached to a building in the middle of our park where you can use the wifi rain or shine.

Our Wireless Internet survey results have been great so far and we thank our campers over the past few weeks for helping us out.  Our new antennas are only a few months old now but we're already planning our next upgrade to hopefully provide excellent coverage on every single site.

The blue rings above show the approximate wireless coverage area.
Some sites beyond the rings may have great signal due to direct line of sight to the antenna.
Wired Internet
If you don't have a Wireless Network Adapter, your laptop should at least have a Wired Network Adapter.  Inside our office we have a table set up with your needs in mind.  We provide the cable and all you need to do is plug it in and voila, high-speed internet! It's not as convenient as Wifi, but it sure beats dialup.  Speaking of Dialup, you can plug in at our Office as well but if you have Wifi or a Network jack on your computer we would prefer you use one of those methods. Besides, it's faster!
