Yogi Bear™ Seasonal Page
Are you looking for your home away from home?
Yogi Bear™ Campground
has a vibrant and engaging community that caters to kids of all ages, both young and old. We provide all the amenities of a full campground, such as private lots surrounded by trees for those who prefer shade and open spaces for those who love the sun. Our Seasonal campers can enjoy an exclusive extended camping season designed just for them.
Yogi Bear™ Campground
Conveniently located just five minutes away from the town of Kingston, you can easily access grocery stores and other supplies when needed. The availability of Seasonal Sites is restricted, meaning that there are only a limited number of them.
Due to popular demand, we have added more seasonal camping spots. Currently, we have a limited number of spots available for the 2024 camping season.
Our all-inclusive Seasonal Rate for a 30-amp 3-way site is $3025.00 plus tax.
If you have a trailer and are interested in making our campground your home away from home, please send your inquiry to fun@jellystonens.com. Our staff will be happy to assist you. You can also check out this page to see some of the activities and events that our seasonal community has participated in over the years.
For all of our current seasonal campers this page is for you. Let us know if you have something to share so we can keep this page alive and relevant for you. We can post invitations for events, photo updates of the seasonal activities you are taking part in and any pertinent information for seasonals. Check out some of the great photos.

Seasonal Policies & Campground Rules (Revised January 2024)
- Quiet hours begin at 11:00 pm, and all fires must be out from 1:00 am – 7:30 am. Security staff will conduct walkabouts to ensure this is adhered to. All Minor campers must return to their campsite at 11 pm.
- All campers and their children must show respect and adhere to the direction of the campground staff. All Minor campers must return to their campsite at 11 pm.
- Parents and guardians are responsible for their children’s actions, behaviours, and safety. Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort and the owners are not responsible for any personal incident or accident, inside or outside the campground.All Minor campers must return to their campsite at 11 pm.
- All trailers must be insured for loss, damage, or theft. Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort and the owners are not responsible for any losses or damages.
- Camping is an outdoor experience. Yogi Bear Campground or its owners are not responsible for the weather, insects, trees, or any other problems that nature may cause.
- Pets must be kept inside your trailer or on a leash/lead when outside. Leashes or leads must be short enough not to allow your pet on another camper’s Spot. Pet owners must pick up after their own pets.
- Smoking cannabis is not permitted in the campground. However, there is a designated area for this outside the entrance to the campground.
- Seasonal campers are not permitted to cut any trees or do any major landscape work to the Spot without the approval of the campground management. This includes but is not limited to having any privately arranged heavy equipment operating on the property, such as bulldozers and backhoes. If you would like to hire a staff member to use campground equipment such as the Kubota tractor, there is an hourly fee (minimum 1 hour) paid to the campground. The campground management must approve all heavy equipment work, as we do not want to interfere with other campers’ experience. We wish to schedule this work when it is most safe to do so (generally during the weekdays). Your Spot fee is for the “rental” of your Spot, and you do not own this property.
- All decks and sheds must be pre-approved by the campground manager before construction. Submit a drawing indicating size and location for review and discussion to either accept or reject based on campground policies before a seasonal camper intends to build.
- Each seasonal site is allowed to have ONLY ONE portable storage shed, with a maximum capacity of 512 ft3 (8 ft X 8 ft X 8 ft).
- Campers with Additional Appliances- (i.e., extra fridges or freezers)- We understand the need for families to require an additional fridge or freezer; however, due to the rising costs of utilities, the campground can no longer absorb the extra cost. We ask that our seasonal campers self-identify if they have more than one camper fridge on their lot. Moving forward, seasonal campers will be allowed one additional bar-size fridge only on their site, covered by the existing seasonal fee. Suppose your family requires any additional appliances, such as a regular-size fridge or freezer. In that case, there will be an extra charge for the season of $100.00 plus tax per extra appliance, payable at the beginning of the season with your final seasonal balance.
- Seasonal campers must notify and obtain approval for any device connected to our utilities. These could be but are not limited to the surge suppression on power lines, routers, or Wi-Fi extenders on our network, as these devices may interfere with our campground services.
- The storage of debris, garbage, and building materials is prohibited on your site. Large items such as BBQs and mattresses will not be picked up as garbage, and it is the seasonal camper’s responsibility to remove these items and dispose of them in appropriate garbage facilities.
- You are responsible for the upkeep and appearance of your site. There is a mower available for your use at the Ranger Station.
- Seasonal lots must be well maintained to keep the campground’s general appearance within the required appearance standards for Yogi Bear Campgrounds. Campground management will provide notice to you if your lot is not maintained. (i.e., mowing or clean-up is required) If maintenance is not completed within one calendar week of notice, the campground staff will do the required maintenance on your seasonal site at an hourly rate of $20.00 plus tax invoiced to you, payable upon receipt.
- Garbage will be picked up at approximately 10:00 am and 6:00 pm to be collected by staff. NEVER USE BLACK BAGS. They are not accepted at the Valley Regional Waste Facility. Please sort the following: Plastic/ Cardboard Separated -clear bag, Recyclable cans, and Bottles – Blue Bag, Compostable Material in a biodegradable bag. All other garbage is in clear bags.
- Deposits for the following season will be due by the long weekend in September. This Deposit will hold your spot for the upcoming season. This deposit fee will be (Non-Refundable) if you choose to leave before the coming season starts.
- Your final balance will be due by the first week of May. That will be the total site fee less the deposit paid the prior year. The final balance will be (Non-Refundable)
- The campground management will let you know the specific payment date when the time arises.
- If you have not paid your first deposit by Sunday of the September long weekend at (5 pm), the campground will assume you will not return for the upcoming season. Therefore, we expect your trailers to be removed from the property by 4 pm on our last seasonal day of the current season.
- Should a camper decide for any reason to remove their camper during the season and not to continue camping. No-Refunds / No-Prorated Refunds will be issued to the camper.
- Renting and subletting trailers on a seasonal spot either through rental companies like rvezy.com or outdoorsy.com or privately is not permitted.
- Campers may be sold on the lot with prior campground management approval. Upon management approval to sell your trailer on the lot, the new owner will be required to complete seasonal paperwork and pay the entire seasonal fee to the campground. This fee will be the cost of the current season to which they take ownership of your trailer. The sellers (current seasonal) will not receive a reimbursement or refund of any seasonal fees paid for the current season in which they choose to sell their trailer. We suggest selling seasonal trailers at the end of the season.
- Your Spot fee is for the “rental” of your Spot, and you do not own this property. Your immediate family members may stay with you in your trailer. If you have people who visit you at your trailer and plan to use the facilities and amenities, please have them come to the office and pay the daily visitor fee.
- Please do not park your vehicle in front of any building or trailer other than your own. There is a one-vehicle per-site policy. If you feel the size of your Spot can handle two vehicles or a vehicle with a trailer comfortably (meaning one parked behind another with no overhang on the roadways), please get in touch with the campground manager to receive authorization for a second vehicle on the Spot (subject to your site size and location) the campground management will take the final decision.
- Overflow parking areas are assigned for staff, weekender visitors with extra vehicles, and visitors of seasonal campers.
- Subject to availability, we have year-round storage for vehicles and campers for a monthly fee. Please see the campground manager for details.
- Bicycles are to be driven in a safe and responsible manner, with riders always wearing helmets. Riders are encouraged to park their bikes at dusk. A bicycle driven after dark MUST have a white front-facing light and a red rear deflector.
- A vehicle registered pursuant to the Motor Vehicle Act can be driven in and out of the campground. Vehicles registered and insured as per the Motor Vehicle Act must be driven by a licensed driver and obey the posted speed limit of 10 km/h in and out of the campground.
- No Off-highway vehicles are permitted to be driven in the campground. The off-highway vehicle includes all-terrain vehicles, motorcycles, minibikes, four-wheel-drive or low-tire-pressure vehicles, dune buggys, or vehicle a class of vehicles designated as an off-highway vehicle by regulation,
- Golf Cart Users-
- We allow only one golf cart per seasonal site. An operator must only drive the golf cart with a valid driver’s license and follow the motor vehicle rules.
- Only the maximum allowed number of people that a golf cart can accommodate sitting down should be on the cart while in motion. For example, a two-seater cart must have only one driver and one passenger.
- There is absolutely no drinking and driving if operating a golf cart, and no alcohol on the cart at any time.
- For the safety of our guests, your cart must have a horn and headlights if you wish to drive after dark; otherwise, your golf cart must not be used after dark.
- All operators must also obey the speed limits. There is zero tolerance for using a golf cart for the safety of our guests. Failure to follow any of the golf cart rules will result in a seasonal camper no longer being allowed to use a golf cart on the property. These are considered vehicles, and they must be treated as such.
- This is a privately owned campground, and no other business (personal or otherwise) may be operated on or use the facilities on said premises.
- Seasonal campers must either provide a copy of their trailer key to the campground manager or a copy of their insurance confirmation for their trailer. Should you provide the key to the campground manager, it will be kept in a lockbox. Campground management will do their best to contact you should a campground safety need arise to gain entrance to your trailer. By providing access to the campground manager, we will also be able to provide limited help to you should the need arise when you are off the campground. (i.e., camper forgetting to turn off an electric water heater, pulling in an electric awning left out, etc.) this will reduce any damage to you as well as the campground.
- The campground Management reserves the right to evict immediately, at their discretion, any person whose conduct is clearly objectionable, hostile, and/or violates park rules. If in the event of this situation, No-Refunds / No-Prorated Refunds will be issued to the camper, and you will be required to remove your camper immediately.
