Freqently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about your stay, including check-in times, campground policies, amenities, and what to expect during your visit to Shore Forest Campground.

Q: What are the check in and check out times?

A: Check-in time is 2:00 PM, and check-out time is 12 noon. There are fees assessed for early check-ins and late check-outs. Check-outs must also be approved by the office.

Q: What if I have to cancel my reservation?

A: We certainly hope you don’t have to cancel your reservation, but if you do, we require at least a one-week notice to be given a full refund. There are no refunds for early departure or inclement weather.

Q: Can we have visitors while camping?

A: Yes you can… all visitors must register upon arrival and depart by 10:00 PM. No more than 4 visitors per site. Visitor fee is $5.00 per person.

Q: Can we request a specific campsite?

A: Site requests are welcome, but we do not guarantee any particular site. We will do our best to fulfill your request, but sometimes things happen and we may have to move your reservation.

Q: Are campfires allowed and can I bring firewood?

A: Campfires are certainly allowed. Because of the recent Pennsylvania Firewood Quarantine, bringing your own firewood is not allowed.

Q: Can we bring our pets camping with us?

A: Pets must be kept on a leash at all times and they cannot be left unattended. When they poop….you scoop. We do not require proof of shots upon check in, but if there is an incident involving your pet, you should be able to produce them. Pets are not permitted in the cabins or on the cabin sites.

"An awesome campground with extremely friendly service. Great place tucked away in nature! Very clean bathrooms and the campsites were great! I had to use the wifi at the campsite to make calls since Verizon does not work there, but the wifi signal was strong and I was able to work and use internet while there. I definitely recommend this campground to anyone that loves to camp."
