$50 for the week (four days). There are port-a-showers.

Hint: There are showers in the builing behind hillside stage (don't tell everybody!)

You buy a pass for the campground at the turn off. No reservations. You can go ealier in the week, though and rope off you area. You can camp with us, but I will warn you -we stay up late drinking creekwater and picking till the sun comes up about every night.:D

Anyone who want to come join us, we have about ten hikers that camp together from various years of the AT.

Is Creekside a 4 day only pass? I'd like to come by and play a while but do I need a 4 day pass to get into camp? I'm thinking about Friday only right now.
