RESORT TERMS & CONDITIONS

I agree, and hereby represent to Gulf Coast Camping Resort, LLC (the “Resort”) that I shall cause and require myself, my children, invitees and guests (hereinafter collectively, “I” or “Guests”), to abide by the Park Rules, including those rules and policies published at www.gulfcoastcampingresort.com and/or posted at the Premises, and/or otherwise communicated in any manner by Resort.

1. GUEST. To place a booking with us, the lead guest must be at least 21 years of age, and must present identification at the time of booking. When a person books on behalf of the actual visiting guests, the person making the booking may be held responsible for cancellation, non- arrival, and damages as set–out within. Only the primary guest and the named booking party are allowed to use the property and its facilities. Any third-party visitors are only allowed access with our prior, in-advance permission. Any charges raised against us buy our banks for handling dishonored checks, bank transfers, or any other payments, must be reimbursed by the lead guest within seven (7) days of any request to do so. All guests agree to respect the privacy and peace of all other staying guests, neighbors, and the owners at all times, as well as the property. We reserve the right to cancel the booking with immediate effect if guests are not honoring this agreement, or causing a disturbance/nuisance to other guests, neighbors, or the owners. The guest agrees, by staying at this campground, to an ejectment at the owners discretion for any reason whatsoever in accordance with Florida Statute 513.13. These executed terms & conditions can apply to mulitple reservations by the same person.

2. PAYMENT POLICY/NO REFUNDS. 100% of the cost of the reservation is due at the time of booking. ANY RESERVATIONS THAT ARE 15 CONTINUOUS DAYS OR MORE IN LENGTH ARE 100% NON REFUNDABLE. By providing a credit card number you are authorizing the resort to bill your credit card for the full amount of the reservation; including but not limited to cost accrued while at the property, outstanding balance is not paid at departure, damages to the property, and any cleanup cost if your side is not cleaned up upon departure, and any other charge referred to herein. Monthly sites are billed on the 1st of each month automatically. If arrival is not at the beginning of the month, that month will be prorated accordingly to match up with the billing cycle. Background check fees are non refundable.

Advanced Rent for Annual RV Reservations

The following terms apply specifically to annual RV reservations:

Charge of Advanced Rent: The advanced rent charge will be equivalent to the monthly rental rate and is charged upfront at the time of booking in addition to the first month’s rent payment. This is required to secure the discounted rental rate offered on the annual plan.
Application of Advanced Rent: Provided the guest fulfills the entire annual term, the advanced rent will be applied to cover rent for the 12th month. Guests who remain in the park for the full reservation period are eligible for this application. Guests who leave early for any reason, including due to violation of rules and regulations, forfeit the entirety of advanced rent.
Forfeiture Conditions: If the guest vacates the park before the end of the annual term, for any reason including violation of park rules and regulations, the advanced rent will be forfeited in full and will not be applied to cover any remaining rental payments. The park reserves the right to pursue all legal remedies available to it for any failure to pay rent in full.

To modify any reservation (shorten your stay) after you’ve checked in you are required to give a 15 day notice in writing via email. This does not apply for reservations paid in full. Reservations of 30 days or less cannot be shortened. For example: If you have a reservation from Jan 1st - April 1st and you wanted to shorten it to end Feb 1st, you would have to let us know in writing to: manager@gulfcoastcampingresort.com no later than Jan 15th.

When a guest shortens a reservation, any time less than a full calendar month will be billed at the daily rate on the following billing period. For example: If a reservation is booked from January 1st to April 1st and a 15-day notice is submitted on January 28th then the new checkout date will be adjusted to February 12th. This would result in the 11 nights in February being billed at the daily rate. Daily rates range from $75 - $90 depending upon site type.

The Resort does not give credit or refunds due to weather, rainstorms, electrical storm, tornado, water spouts, mud slides, earthquakes, flooding, hurricane, windstorm, plague, pandemic, public health emergencies, interruption of utility or water services to the Park, crime, or any other meteorological or geological phenomenon of any kind whatsoever, encounters with wild animals or other animals (pets), and acts of God. The Resort's refund is as follows:

a. Campsites: ALL RESERVATIONS ARE 100% NON REFUNDABLE.
