Pre-Season Opening Continues this weekend, April 9th and 10th from 9am-3pm. A gate attendant will be present during those hours and the office by the beach will be open to make payments.
On weekdays starting April 11th, we'll be open 9am-3pm to allow seasonal campers to clean up their sites or visit the office to make payments or pick up vehicle passes**. Keycards are needed on weekdays to open the inside gate.
As a reminder, the bathrooms are closed and the water is off, however, electric service is available. Campfires and overnight stays are prohibited until the water is on.
Vehicle Passes
Seasonal campers that have completed the registration process can expect to get an email with “your passes are ready!” in the subject line**. If you have received that email, please pick up your passes at the office by the beach during the dates and times above.
Registration
The registration forms and process were emailed to all seasonal campers January 19th 2022. Given the volume of seasonal campers to register it can take up to 7 business days to process registration from start to finish so please do not wait until the last minute to complete the process.
If you need hands on help with registration, please make an appointment with Sherry or Terri. Send an email to camping@fishlakebeach.com to request a weekday appointment. You will need to bring supporting documents to registration appointments.
Important Reminders: Garbage, Yard Waste, Recycling
-
PLEASE bag your leaves and yard waste and leave them at the edge of your site or BY a dumpster--NOT IN THE DUMPSTER.
-
This past weekend a number of seasonal campers put leaves IN dumpsters. Our waste disposal company will not pick up a dumpster that contains yard waste, therefore, our grounds staff has to remove them. Never mix trash and yard waste and put it in dumpsters.
- Two recycling dumpsters are located near the pavilion. Do not put anything that in them that isn't aluminum cans, paper, cardboard, plastic bottles, and please break down boxes.
Large Item Disposal
Please call or go to the office to put in a work order for large item(s) to be picked up from your site. Large item disposal is not included in your license fees. There is a fee for us to pick up chairs, tables, grills, mattresses, carpeting, construction waste, cabinets, couches, etc. and the fee depends on the size of the item or item(s).
Water
If the weather permits, our water will be on Friday, April 15th and if the water is on, overnight stays will be allowed. If the weather does NOT permit us to turn the water on, overnight stays are prohibited and we'll shoot for turning it on Friday, April 22nd. Turning on the water is a week long process and takes coordination with our well company. All the wells and water lines are chlorinated for a time period, flushed, and then samples are taken for the IDPH.
NEW!
Seasonal campers have the option of completing a credit card authorization form to allow us to process payment for electric bills. This form must be completed in person at the office. Electric bills paid by credit card are NOT subject to the 3% service fee normally charged for using a credit card to pay license fees.
Please feel free to write us with any questions or concerns.
