Spend the Entire Season at Sandy Pines
Seasonal camping gives you the opportunity to enjoy the Sandy Pines experience from spring through fall—without the obligations of membership. Set up your summer home base, settle into the community, and enjoy a full season of recreation, amenities, golf, events, and time outdoors.
Sandy Pines has 12 designated seasonal campsites. Current seasonal site holders receive the first opportunity to renew their site from the previous season. Any sites that are not renewed are then made available through a random lottery, which means the number of available sites varies each year.
Not just a weekend away.
A summer to call your own.
A Monday with no packing up. A Wednesday spent enjoying the park. A whole summer with your campsite ready and your community close by.
Stay throughout the summer or come and go as your schedule allows. Seasonal camping gives you the time to make Sandy Pines part of everyday summer life.
Mark your calendar and return to this page to enter. Entries are not open yet.
You do not have to wait for Friday.
Sandy Pines stays lively during the summer week, too. With a seasonal site, you have time to enjoy the activities, get to know your neighbors, and find your own favorite way to spend the day.
Settle in. Stay awhile.
Make your campsite your summer home base. Stay throughout the summer, enjoy an extended visit, or return whenever your schedule gives you the chance.
Fill your days your way.
Join recreational activities, enjoy park amenities, or make time for a round of golf. A full season gives you room for both busy days and days with nothing planned.
Become part of the community.
Familiar faces. New friendships. More time together. Spend enough time here to build the routines and traditions that make a summer feel like yours.
