12. Cautions If you select Saturday on the calendar the system will still default back to Friday and two nights and allow you to select facilities. IF YOU CHANGE THE DATE AND HIT CHECK AVAILABILITY OR USE THE ARROWS, YOU WILL LOSE ANYTHING IN YOUR CART, AND NEED TO RESELECT YOUR BUILDINGS AND ADD TO CART. However selecting a new date and Check Availability is a valid action, it just empties your cart.

13. Cart 1 Cabins are charged by the building and priced for the weekend. If you indicate you are bringing more than the capacity of the cabin you will be charged the tent camping rate for the number over the size of the cabin. If you have rented multiple building please adjust the number attending to at or below the capacity of the cabin to avoid additional charges (if you are able.) If you need sleeping accommodations for females please do so on this screen.

14. Cart 2 In this example on the initial screen we indicated we were bringing 30 people. We are renting 2 cabins for a total of 48 beds. By changing the 30s below the capacity and recalculating the cart, the over capacity fee would be eliminated.

15. Cart 3 Corrected cart for the same 30 people. No over capacity fee.
