The campground operates seasonally from early May through late September, with glamping structures typically requiring advance reservations. Mission Mountain Winery sits just down the road, offering tastings as a complementary activity to the glamping experience. A recent visitor mentioned, "We stayed on loop A and we are right on the water.
