The Campground is a beautifully shaded woods area with 15 modern hook-up sites offering electricity, water, and sewer, level pads for motor homes or campers, and a separate grassy area for tenting.  In the center of the campground is the Ascension Haus, a pavilion that can host up to 100 for picnics, with a full kitchen and storage area and lights for the night use.  This pavilion is often used for movies, reunions, and picnics in the summer season.  We have a total of 4 sites at 50 AMP.  The rest are at 30 AMP. 
 Cabin 1, 2, and 3
