Gallery

Real photographs, borrowed honestly

Birch Point is a fictional property, so these are licensed stock photographs (CC0, tracked in photos/SOURCES.md) standing in for the shots a real build would supply. They show the mood, not the place.

Eight shots

What a real gallery would carry

About 600 usable photographs would sit behind this page, sorted by area and by season: a professional shoot covering the cabins, the pavilion and the beach, an aerial set of the whole property and the shoreline, and the rest on a phone, which is better than it sounds.

Notes

How the real thing gets built

Rights

A real build ships only imagery the owner owns outright or has written permission to use, tracked rather than remembered. The stand-ins on this demo are CC0 stock, each one recorded in photos/SOURCES.md. Guest photos need permission in writing.

Video

Two walkthrough videos of about 90 seconds each, and drone footage, would sit alongside the stills.

The printed map

The hand-drawn property map, redrawn in 2023 and handed out at check-in, is the single most reproducible asset a campground has. See the site map.
