Are you ready to bring your best (furry) friend camping with us?
For everyone’s safety, anytime your pet is outside your RV or vehicle, you must be with your pet. Dogs may not be left unattended outdoors. This includes at your campsite, in the dog park, or on a tie‑out. Dog owners are responsible for any injury or damage caused by their pets. Standing Pines is not responsible for injury or loss related to wildlife or stray animals on or near the property.

Safety Matters
We want your well behaved pups to have fun in the dog parks! Both parks feature double gated entry for extra security. Let them run in the parks…not away from you.
Because no one wants their fur baby to step in another dog’s poop, make sure you use your own or the provided bags to clean up after your dogs in the park.
It’s the little things that make camping wildly comfortable—for you and your best friend!
Pet Comfort Stations
We know comfort is in the details. That’s why we have pet comfort stations throughout the park. You are never far from a station stocked with complimentary waste bags! As a bonus, no more juggling leash, waste bag and trying to flip open a can. Just step on our convenient foot levers to easily dispose of your waste bag!
