About Shelp's Resort

2025 Season: Open May 1 – Oct 15, 2025

Shelp’s Resort is a family owned and operated campground
that originated in the early 1800’s and evolved to include a vineyard, hotel, and  campground for the last 75 years. The campground hugs the shore with the sandy beach & pavilion that includes an historic general store.

Brad & Roseann Deneau purchased the resort recently from the family. They have continued to enhance Shelp’s while retaining it’s rich history and beauty. They live on Pine Lake just around the corner from Shelp’s Resort.

Now they have added a luxury RV experience available for weekly rental throughout the season from May 1st to October 15th.

There are plenty of options around Pine Lake to enjoy the
water. There are nearby stores that include pizza delivery, ice cream, subs, gas, and groceries. Right next door is a marina that has many pontoon rentals if you would like to get out on the lake!
