DOWNLOAD MONTHLY RULES & REGULATIONS

Rules for Monthly Stays at Cedar Cove RV Park

Please read all of these rules carefully. If you are warned/fined/removed for any of the following, it is your responsibility to know the rules of staying with us prior.

  • The speed limit in the park is 10 mph. Please respect this limit. The possibility of hitting someone or someone’s pet is not worth it. Please make your visitors aware of this rule as well. The entrance road speed limit is 25, and within the park it is 10 mph. Repeated offenses will result in the resident being asked to leave the park without a refund.
  • Only 1 RV, 1 trailer, and 2 vehicles are permitted per site unless approved by the park management. If a site can fit less than this, the park may request that you store one vehicle or trailer to avoid blocking neighbors.
  • At no time should 2 units be plugged into the electrical source at the site. If it is found that a resident has done this, strict action and a possible hefty fee will be assessed to the account.
  • All RVs must be self-contained. This means that your RV is self-sustaining with its own bathroom, holding tank for water, and a working electrical system.
  • Quiet hours are from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. every day. If management or staff asks you more than twice in one night to be quiet, the police/security will be called to handle the situation. Excessively loud or disturbing noise made at any time is prohibited as well.
  • Do not place grills or other flammable objects on picnic tables. Do not sit on picnic table tops. A $100 fine will be assessed to the account if the table is found to be damaged.
  • Do not place fish parts or any petroleum products in the park trash dumpsters.
  • Do not drive, park, or walk through another tenant’s site. Proper RV etiquette also includes the care of unoccupied sites. Our staff cleans these, and driving through them creates more work for us and dirties the space for the next guest.
  • Our monthly rates are based on 2 adults and 2 children. Any additional guests are $6.00 per person every night they are on the site. More resources are used per site with more guests.
  • Please let us know as soon as possible upon your arrival how long you would like to stay in your space. Do not arrive assuming you have the space long-term if you do not explicitly make this arrangement with our office. Not making the proper arrangements upon arrival may result in our office moving your reservation to another space. To avoid this inconvenience, update the office as soon as you know when you will depart. If you have yet to set a departure date, we will block your reservation for two years to avoid conflicts or until your requested year.
  • A late fee of $25 will be assessed to the account on the 8th day after the rent and electricity are due. An additional $5 will be added every day after that. Your rent is due every 30 days from the day you arrive. The electric meter is read on the last day of every month and is due on the 1st of every month.
  • By arriving and parking in a space, the resident agrees to leave a valid card on file, even if all future payments are via cash or check. Otherwise, a $500 cash security deposit is required and will be returned to you upon your departure.
  • We have an auto-pay system available to those who want to avoid a monthly call for electricity or rent. Please come by the office and fill out an auto-pay form if you wish to do this. We now have available to all tenants to make site and electric payments online.
  • ATVs, side by sides, and any motorized recreational vehicles are welcomed in our park on the agreement that they will go the speed limit within the park’s boundaries, no tricks or excessive play in the park, and will not run their engines past the quiet hour of 10 p.m. We have easily accessible trails throughout our park.

  • Pets should not be left unattended outside the unit for extended periods, even if they are leashed or caged. We live in a very warm place where pets should not be outside for too long.
