    b. Fees paid to the reservation center by credit card will be refunded to the original credit card charged.

    c. Fees paid by check or money order to the reservation center, or by any method at the park, will be refunded by state check.

    d. A customer may move a camping reservation to another date or park, referred to as a transfer, through the reservation center only, and prior to 4 p.m. on the scheduled date of arrival.

    e. A camping reservation may be canceled until 4 p.m. on the scheduled date of arrival but campers will be charged the cancellation fee. This cancellation fee applies to each separate reservation made.

    f. Once the 4 p.m. check-in time is reached on the scheduled day of arrival, any adjustment to a reservation is considered an early departure.

    3. Campers are allowed two vehicles per campsite per day without charge of a parking fee.
