These changes may include upgrades, maintenance, reclassification of the site (such as adding a dwelling), removing the site from the rental pool, or reserving it for personal use. While we strive to honor your original reservation, we may need to relocate you to a similar site. In such cases, we will make every effort to notify you in advance.

Only domesticated pets and certified service animals are allowed in pet-friendly rental units. Rental Properties will be charged a fee of $25 per pet per day.

5.7 Guest Code of Conduct

The following Code of Conduct outlines the behavioral expectations for all guests during their stay. These provisions are mandatory and exist to ensure a safe, respectful, and enjoyable environment for all guests, staff, and property owners. Failure to comply with these provisions may result in immediate action, including removal from the property and involvement of law enforcement, as necessary.

  1. Respectful and Responsible Behavior
    Guests must maintain respect in all interactions with staff, other guests, and property owners. Any aggression, hostility, offensive language, inappropriate behavior, or harassment—whether verbal, physical, or written—is strictly prohibited. Physical contact with staff is not allowed under any circumstances and will be treated as a serious violation. Guests are expected to act responsibly and avoid behavior that is disruptive, unsafe, offensive, or illegal. Excessive intoxication leading to verbal altercations, property damage, harassment, or endangering others will not be tolerated. Staff may intervene immediately if safety or property is at risk, including removal from the premises, notifying law enforcement, or terminating the guest’s stay without a refund. Prohibited actions include profanity, threats, intimidation, deceitful conduct, and illegal activities such as drug use, theft, or vandalism.
  2. Compliance with Resort Policies
    Guests must follow all resort rules, including quiet hours, pet policies, amenity use, parking, and safety regulations. Damages must be reported, and repair costs are the guest's responsibility. Charges may be applied without prior notice. Violations may result in warnings, restricted access, fines, removal without refund, or law enforcement involvement.
  3. Reporting and Resolution
    All concerns or complaints must be reported promptly to Guest Services at the front desk using the appropriate communication channels. Guests are expected to address concerns professionally and may not escalate issues through uninvolved staff or third parties. Refusal to comply with staff instructions, established procedures, or provisions outlined in this Code of Conduct will result in immediate action, which may include removal from the property or notification of law enforcement if the behavior poses a safety risk or violates applicable laws.
  4. Commitment to Enjoyment
    The resort is committed to providing a safe and welcoming environment for all guests. By adhering to the provisions of this Code of Conduct, guests contribute to a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone.
  5. Drone Policy
    For the safety, privacy, and comfort of all guests, the use of drones or other unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is strictly prohibited anywhere on resort property without prior written authorization from resort management. This includes recreational, commercial, and photography-related drone use. Unauthorized drone operation may result in immediate removal from the property without refund, and local authorities may be notified if necessary.

5.8 Electrical Safety

For safety and to help prevent damage to electrical equipment, guests must turn the pedestal breaker OFF before plugging in or unplugging their RV power cord. Plugging or unplugging while the breaker is on can cause electrical arcing, which may damage the outlet, pedestal, surge protector, or RV cord. Once the cord is securely connected, the breaker may be turned back ON. If you need assistance with your pedestal or electrical connection, please contact the resort office during business hours or call after-hours emergency maintenance for urgent electrical issues.

5.9 Unattended RVs

RV sites are for active overnight lodging only and may not be used for storage. An RV may not remain unattended for more than 72 hours without prior written approval from resort management. Any approval may require the guest to supply a working spare key or access code, sign an authorization allowing resort staff or contracted vendors to enter, secure, move, relocate, tow, or remove the RV, and pre-authorize payment of all related costs. Approval can be modified or revoked at any time in the resort’s sole discretion.

If the resort determines that any circumstance—including but not limited to safety, security, weather, maintenance, utility work, operational needs, property-access issues, or legal or regulatory requirements—makes immediate action necessary, the resort may, without further notice, enter, relocate, tow, or remove the RV at the RV owner’s sole risk and expense. Guests remain liable for all fees, costs, and damages arising from an unattended RV and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the resort, its owners, employees, and agents to the fullest extent permitted by law. The resort assumes no responsibility or bailment for loss, theft, damage, weather effects, utility disruptions, towing or relocation damage, or any other condition affecting an unattended RV except where prohibited by law.

6. Facility Use

6.1 Vehicles

A maximum of two vehicles may be parked per site. All vehicles must display a valid parking permit and must not impede traffic. Vehicles must remain behind the designated red line and are not permitted to park on grass or any unapproved surfaces.

Parking on any site not associated with your reservation—including other RV pads or tiny home driveways—is strictly prohibited. Unauthorized parking may result in a fine and/or the vehicle being towed at the owner’s expense. Because of limited space, the resort does not guarantee parking availability for trailers or additional vehicles.

Overflow parking is located at the front parking lot, with additional spaces available at the end of the park. Guests are encouraged to bring the minimum number of vehicles necessary to ensure a smooth and efficient parking experience for all.

The operation of all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), utility task vehicles (UTVs), and similar off-road vehicles is strictly prohibited on resort property. These vehicles may only be brought onto the property if they are securely transported on or in a trailer. Any unauthorized use of ATVs or UTVs on resort grounds may result in immediate removal from the property and/or additional penalties.

Guests who bring personal golf carts to the resort must carry valid insurance coverage for their vehicle. Proof of insurance must be brought to the resort and made available upon request. Failure to provide proof of insurance when asked may result in a fee of up to $800.

6.2 Amenities and Hot Tubs

Guests must adhere to all provided instructions when utilizing amenities, including hot tubs. The Management Company is not liable for injuries sustained as a result of misuse. Guests must bring their pool towels where applicable. Special instructions for the use of hot tubs will be provided at check-in, and failure to comply with these instructions may result in charges for damages.

6.3 Substitution of Accommodations

The Management Company reserves the right to substitute accommodations due to unforeseen circumstances. In such cases, guests will be offered equivalent accommodations, or a full refund will be provided if no acceptable alternatives are available.

6.4 Boat Docks

Boat docks and ramps are available for guest use, where applicable. Guests are responsible for properly securing their boats and adhering to all safety guidelines posted on-site. Guests who bring a boat and pay for a slip may have their boat trailers parked in the designated white rock area near the boat slips, subject to availability. If a guest brings a boat but does not plan to launch it, a daily storage fee of $30.00 will be charged for keeping the boat on the property.

6.5 Boat and Jet Ski Trailers

Boat trailers, jet ski trailers, and similar watercraft trailers are subject to availability and may be parked on the assigned site only if they fit fully within the site boundaries and do not cross the red line at the edge of the site.

Boat and jet ski trailers may not obstruct roads, neighboring sites, utilities, common areas, boat ramps, docks, slips, or access points. If a trailer cannot be safely accommodated on the assigned site, it must be parked only in a designated trailer parking area, if available. If no designated parking is available, the trailer may be required to be parked off-site at the trailer owner’s expense.

RV sites, rental sites, and other guest accommodations may not be reserved or used solely for the purpose of parking or storing a boat, jet ski, trailer, or other equipment. All sites are intended for active guest stays only.

Because space is limited, the resort does not guarantee parking availability for boat trailers, jet ski trailers, or similar.

7. Liability and Indemnity

7.1 Indemnity

Guests agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Management Company, property owners, and staff from any liability for personal injury, property damage, loss, or other losses arising from their stay, except in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Management Company is not responsible for any lost, stolen, or damaged personal belongings. Guests are strongly encouraged to secure their personal property, including bicycles and other valuables, when not in use.

7.2 Mandatory Evacuations

In the event of a mandatory evacuation by local authorities, guests will be entitled to a prorated refund for unused days.

8. Additional Resort Policies
