Additional FAQs for Visitors

What face coverings are acceptable? 

Face coverings (masks) must properly cover your nose and mouth with two or more layers of protection at all times. Masks that have holes for your mouth or nose or single-layer buffs will not satisfy the mask requirement.

Do you require advance ticket purchase or reservations?

No, for summer you can purchase your tickets online or on site at any of our ticketing locations. We will be limiting the number of tickets and parking spots available to control capacity.

Will dining facilities be open? Will the bar be open? 

Yes, our dining facilities will be open with some new grab-and-go items and mobile ordering opportunities. We will be following all New York State and local guidance for serving alcohol. Please be understanding and patient while we strive to provide you the best and safest service possible.

Can you tell us about your air purification in the lodges? 

Where applicable, our lodges and other buildings with air handling units have been upgraded to State recommended Merv 13 filters. Buildings without air handling units will have portable HEPA filters placed in non-filtered areas. We will also have windows open as conditions allow to promote airflow.

What about cleaning and sanitizing in your lodges?

We are operating under new cleaning procedures as recommended by New York State and CDC along with an increased cleaning schedule and we have placed hand sanitizer stations throughout our venue.
