- Age limit: please note that “good condition” does not mean “new,” and we do not typically have an age limit for RVs.
- RV certification: vehicles must be certified and insured.
- Proof of insurance is required.
Appearance Guidelines
- RVs should look and function how they were originally designed.
- The following appearance guidelines apply to all extended stay campers.
- Guests staying during the winter season will have more stringent requirements to adhere to.
- Doors, shrouds, panels, windows and coverings, etc. should be intact and not unsightly.
RV Exterior
- Exterior should be not unsightly and should be free of obvious, poorly-repaired damages.
- The exterior should be free of duct tape, repair tape, excessive caulk, etc.
Tarps
- Tarps cannot be used for weatherproofing and awnings should be in good condition.
Winter Stays
- For winter stays, tarps are permitted but must be white.
Air Conditioning Units
- Air conditioning units should not be added through the walls or windows unless previously approved.
- All hoses, wires, etc. should route through ports as originally designed.
Isolated Minor Issues
- Isolated minor issues are generally acceptable, provided multiple issues aren't combined to substantially deteriorate the appearance of an RV.
- Minor body damage which has been properly repaired but is still visible.
- Fading of decals and/or paint.
- Minor window cracking, although replacements should be scheduled.
- Damage from traveling that has just happened, especially if you have a repair plan.
Site Standards
- We all need to be good neighbors to our fellow campers.
- No one likes to camp next to a messy site, and a messy campsite can be an open invitation to unwanted wildlife.
- Remember, this is a campground, not a permanent residence.
Clean Campsites
- Campsites should be clean and neat, free of fire hazards and clutter.
- We repeat campsites should be clean and neat, free of fire hazards and clutter.
Tarps, Tents, Shade Structures and Other Structures

- Management can approve more substantial, semi-permanent shade structures, in accordance with the individual property guidelines.
- Only form-fitting bike/car covers are allowed.
- Carports are prohibited.
Exterior Furnishings

- Indoor furnishings including but not limited to sofas, chairs, refrigerators, freezers and kitchen tables are not allowed on your campsite.
Fencing
- Fencing is limited to 24” in height and may be utilized only in the area under the rig awning.
Flags and Signs
- Flags and signs that display political, controversial, vulgarity or profanity are not allowed to be displayed at your site or throughout the campground.
Run a De-Humidifier
- The purpose of this is to prevent moisture in your trailer which could lead to mold.
- Windows and walls get extreme condensation due to heaters, body heat, and cooking inside.
Heaters and Fireplaces
- Plug-in heaters/fireplaces make a huge difference on warmth inside an RV.
- Too many though, could draw too much power and trip your RV breakers or cause a fire.
- Space heaters are not recommended, but no more than one space heater may be plugged in at one time.
Seal the Windows and Doors.
- Examine the seals and caulking around the RV windows and replace any areas that are missing or weak.
- Replace weather stripping around exterior doors to prevent cold air and moisture from leaking out.
Install Window Coverings
- Window film and reflective foil are affordable and effective ways to further insulate your RV windows.
- Foil lined reflective insulation can be cut to fit your RV windows and added bonus reflecting heat back into the RV.
Use Heavy Drapes
- Thick fabric drapes block cold drafts around the windows and keep warm air in during chilly evenings.
- Insulated curtains can also be used to separate the cockpit and living space, so you have a smaller area to heat.
Insulate the Floors
- Foam board flooring can be used to insulate the RV floor.
- Nobody likes freezing toes.
- If you prefer not to purchase foam board flooring, heavy rugs and carpets can also help block cold air that may come up.
Install RV Skirting
- Wind blowing underneath your RV can cause water tanks to freeze and suck heat out.
- Installing RV skirting around the base of the RV can block cold winds from damaging vehicle components and chilling the interior.
- We ask that all our guests use foil bubble insulation.
- It is the easiest, cheapest, and most appealing look for RVs.
- If we are all using the same insulation to skirt, it looks much better than everyone using something different.
Heat Tape
- Use heat tape on pipes and hoses.
- Wrap your freshwater hose and sewer hose with heat strips to keep the lines warm and prevent freezing.
- Heat tape can be applied around valves and connections most at risk of freeze-ups.
- You can also add foam insulation in addition to heat tape for extra protection.
Internal Plumbing
- Warm your internal plumbing.
- Open your bathroom and kitchen cabinets, so your trailer’s heating can keep internal plumbing warm.
- Allowing a small drip from faucets can also help combat freezing by water moving.
RV Furnace
- Check your RV furnace before you use it to ensure it is working condition.
- Clean your furnace using compressed air or a soft brush to remove dirt and debris.
- Check the furnace vents for any damage or obstructions that could prevent air from flowing properly and check that the furnace air return is not blocked.
Cover your AC Unit
- This prevents cold drafts.
- Be sure you have vent covers as they reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning and can release some of the moisture from inside
Plastic Components
- Take care of plastic components.
- They can become brittle from the cold.
Batteries
- Change batteries in safety devices such as fire alarm and carbon monoxide detector.
Snow
- Be sure to not let snow pile on your roof too much as it causes stress on your roof as well as keeps it colder.
- Campers may not be covered by tarps unless in emergency situations, please contact management first for approval.
Wet Season
- During the wet season (particularly spring), road conditions in the park can become muddy, try to avoid driving on the same muddy spots every day, or contact management for site repairs.
