Late Arrivals

If you arrive after 9:00 p.m., the Main Administration Office will not be open. Please check in at our Guest Services office located across the street from the Main Office below the Café and to the left of the main parking lot. If you arrive after midnight, please go to the bulletin board located outside of the Main Administration Office doors adjacent to the parking lot.

It is important that you officially check in at the Main Administration Office between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. the next morning.
