Wilderness Cove Campground

Good Flows and Great Weather

2009-07-09T01:20:00.003-04:00

It's been a great summer so far. We've seen a lot of old faces and even more new ones. A wet Spring has given us an excellent dam release schedule and the weather has been exceptional. Thank you to all of our Customers for helping us break records the week of the Fourth.

Season Kickoff and Updates on the Updates

2009-04-30T13:05:00.022-04:00

On Saturday April the 25th our season kicked off with Jerry's Baddle and even a few tubers. The event was a success. For results and information on the event visit www.jerrysbaddle.org

Our biggest upgrade for this season was the new parking lot. A year ago I started the whole thing when I drained the pond.

After the pond was drained the initial grading was completed before last season. Then the wait was on for an erosion control permit.

About 8 months later we had a permit in hand and a new grading company taking on the job. After all the silt was removed the pipe was laid.

As more pipe was laid, more dirt was cut off the mountain to fill in the pond. The vertical cliff was removed and the dirt was put to good use.

After the dirt was in place and compacted, gravel made it feel complete.

The only thing left to do was hydro seed the upper bank.

And it was done, ready for some cars.

Two years ago when we took over this campground we had a vision of what we wanted it to be. We're one step closer.

Just another note, the steps at the "second bridge" are finished.

Hello all!

The weather can't seem to make up it's mind lately. Feels like spring one day, then cold or rainy the next. The new parking lot grading job is still ongoing and showing slow progress. At the second bridge (the take out for our 2 and 3 hour tubing trips) the new stair case is a couple of steps from being completed. Towards the end of last season we solved of bath house water problems. Now we're receiving quotes for another upgrade to the bath house. Small projects are completed every day. We're looking forward to the sunshine and happy campers that the summer will bring. We look forward to seeing you this summer.

Winter Renovations

It's hard to think about tents and tubes as cold as it's been lately, but soon it will be time. This off season will bring a few new changes to our facilities. Our big project is our new parking lot. As of now, the equipment is on the ground and roaring. There will also be upgrades to our bathhouse and camping areas.
To all of our loyal customers, we thank you for your past business and look foward to seeing you this summer.
