“We’re excited to transform this park into a truly great campground and add it to our growing portfolio of Jellystone Park locations across the country,” said Sean Vidrine, CEO, Four Points. “We are refurbishing all of the park’s water features, including its swimming pool, water slides, and splashground. We’re also adding a new resort-style pool with a tanning deck and a floating obstacle course in the lake along with other amenities such as pedal boats and paddleboards.”
Additionally, Four Points will refurbish the miniature golf course; remodel the park store and 11 cabins; resurface all roads; and upgrade all water, sewer and electrical connections. All improvements will be completed by the time the park opens in the spring. When the campground opens in time for Memorial Day, travelers can expect about 200 campsites, a number which will eventually grow to more than 350.
Four Points owns and operates seven campgrounds, including four Jellystone Parks in Bloomington, Indiana; Mansfield, Pennsylvania; Monticello, Iowa; and Pittsfield, Illinois.
