The proposed site plan will also include a 1,200 square foot lodge which will consist of an open air gazebo that can accommodate up to 70 guests. The lodge will be used only by guests staying at the campground and their invitees, The site will be serviced by an existing full access driveway located approximately 450 feet east of Cook Road. There is an existing parking lot that services the wellness center and additional parking areas will be created for the campground.
