When is renting required?

A reservation is required and a rental fee will be charged for any activity that involves the set-up of any type of equipment (including tables) or restricts access to a specific area of the Park for Park guests. A reservation and rental fee are also required for filming or photography that will restrict the use of any area of the Park and will use equipment more extensive than a single tripod. Access Cary’s film and photography guide here.
