At Jellystone Park in North Java, you’ll find all the amenities that make a great family vacation, group gathering or reunion. Experience Yogi Bear’s Water Zone, a multi-level interactive water playground complete with waterslides, a fort, water cannon, and spray features. For water lovers, there’s also a lake with a white sandy beach great for swimming and fishing. In addition, you’ll find a state-of-the-art arcade, basketball court, mini-golf, giant playfield, an outstanding activity program, and much more!

RVers will appreciate the full-hookup, 50 amp, pull-thru sites; while tent campers can set up on a secluded wooded site or be near the action. Prefer a cabin? There are several styles available, but all come standard with a bathroom, TV, DVD player, refrigerator, A/C and heat.

The park is owned by Scott and Sue Crompton, who take great pride in providing excellent customer service and a premier facility. Since purchasing the park in 2004, they have transformed it into one of the best family vacation destinations in the region.

We congratulate the Cromptons on their achievement!
