Well... Hello there.

 The keeper of the site....is Cherie Kimpel.  If you really, really need something, you can probably ask me. If I don't know, I'll find out!  This blog is where I will do my best to keep everyone updated on what's going on, but sometimes, work gets in the way.

Leap Year?

I don't know how the rest of you feel about this extra day crap, but it's messing me up. Now, I should be positive about this. It's just one extra day that I have to get all my work done, but writing 2/29/16 on documents is messing with my  head. To add to that, I pretty sure my computers are confused. I've been corrected at least 3 times when typing that. Technology is so darn hard! I'm sure none of you are happy with this extra day. That's just twenty-four hours more that you can't camp!!

And this weather? It's wonderful if you don't include the wind. Just to update, if you are able, you should stop out to check on your camper and accessories. This wind is dangerous, and there is a possibility that you may be missing stuff. Sophie's favorite teddy bear has officially been marked as "gone with the wind." I looked for that thing for hours, and she pouted every time I let her outside for like three whole days. I think she's over it now.

We've been trying to keep an eye on major issues, but there is a chance that we have missed something. You may just want to stop out. No one knows their site better than you.

Update wise, there's really not much to update on. We're working on some more paperwork (isn't that statement a broken record?!). Honestly, it's crunch time for us. We've been working our little butts right off this off-season. There's not so much cushion when I sit anymore, and it's scary.

Now, if you're as messed up by this Leap Year as I am, join in some educational information search by clicking the link below. Seriously, you can learn about who to blame for this crap.

Happy almost camping, folks!

I think they Found the website...

I absolutely love the fact that when I ask something of my campers, they listen. Seriously. I posted, on Facebook, the same thing I have posted numerous times before, but this time, I got some serious feedback. Let me tell you, I am pleased.

I think everyone likes the website. Or, at least, that's what I gathered. It makes me happy! The other thing, I love that I can tell everyone actually looked at the website. Everyone seemed to find the Contact Form.

I am not complaining!! It makes me happy. So let's keep on doing what you all have been doing. I am still working on the website. The layout won't change, but I will be adding more information as I get it. Keep checking back, and you may start learning lots of stuff.

As everyone may know already, I have been spending a lot of time in the office this winter. My eyes are actually starting to hurt from staring at a computer screen, but alas, I do love it. I do have one common question that I would like to clear up for everyone. Yes, I AM TAKING RESERVATIONS. Most may not know, just because they aren't familiar with the campground, but I am taking reservations. We will always take reservations during the summer. So, if you knew this, tell your friends.

I do believe that is all I had to discuss with all my little minions. Are you all liking this weather we're having? I shoveled snow off the office deck this morning in a t-shirt. It's beautiful.

Stay thawed out, friends!

Hello 2016

2016. That sounds like such a fun, crazy time.

Sorry for the lack of weekly posts, everyone. It hasn't been a particularly good year for me personally, but it WILL get better. At least, that's what I keep telling myself. Between a string of family funerals, wrecked cars, vet visits (those were good though), and some weird boyfriend who broke his arm, 2016 didn't start out great.

But here is the saving grace for 2016. CAMPING SEASON IS COMING. Did you see what I did there? Got ya'll excited about it. This weather is doing us a great deed. The waterpark construction is going smoothly and my paperwork is going smoothly. Mother Nature must have finally got those twenties I had been sending her.

Enough about all that! Please, please, let me know what you think about the website! I have completely redone it, again. This should be the final change for everything! The Black Beard's Bay portion is still under construction, so please bear with me on that. If you happen to find any major mistakes, feel free to let me know. I'm all open for constructive criticism.

I have been in the office almost daily this year, as well. If you call and I don't answer, leave a message. I will probably get it the next day!

Stay frosty, my friends.
