RULES FOR HAPPY CAMPING
Helping ensure everyone has a peaceful, relaxing environment to enjoy.
Gate Security
"Key" Cards are designed to allow only one vehicle to enter the Park. There is a 5 minute delay before a card will work again. Season Campers may obtain one key card per paid vehicle. For your convenience, visitor "key" cards may be purchased at the office. They are designed to allow guests to enter the Park between the hours of 9:00 am - 9:00 pm.
Guests
While there is no charge for weekday day visitors, there are fees for use of the pool, tennis court, & overnight guests. Each site is allowed 1 guest vehicle up to 6 guests. Park residents are responsible for their guest’s use of facilities, and for registering them as overnight visitors.
Visitor curfew is 11:00pm.
Inform your guests of office hours or arrange or meet them at the gate if necessary.
Site Deliveries & Service Work
It’s best to arrange to meet service workers at the gate if they cannot come during office hours. Keys to trailers will not be given to service workers unless pre-arranged!! No deliveries on Wednesdays.
Sewage Waste
The valve on your septic holding tank must be kept in a closed position except when dumping. Avoid nasty build-up in your Septic Holding tank by using single-ply toilet tissue & proper "break-up" biological chemicals. Please dispose of used kleenex, paper towels, diapers, tampons, etc. in the garbage.
