The prohibiting of firearms includes all guns including air soft, BB, and pellet guns. If these items are seen outside of your RV, you will be asked to leave immediately without a refund.

Wildlife – Fishing & Swimming in Bay Prohibited

The Park is located on the bay. We are committed to preserving the environment and wildlife in and near the Park and the bay. Please be aware that the Park and surrounding area host a variety of wildlife (e.g., opossum, raccoons, snakes, etc.). Alligators are also native to the area. It is not uncommon for alligators to bask along the banks of the bay for extended periods of time. These alligators are usually warming their bodies; they are not actively hunting. Often times, a basking alligator may be seen with its mouth open; this is a way to cool its body temperature down, since alligators do not pant or sweat.

For this reason, we do not allow guests or visitors swim in or enter the bay. Additionally, fishing from banks of the Park into the bay is strictly prohibited. As with fish, alligators are attracted to lures because they mimic natural food.

Guests and visitors are not permitted to feed, harass, or entice alligators. It is against the law to intentionally feed a free-ranging alligator. Feeding or offering food, including fish or bait is not only dangerous, but a Class C misdemeanor punishable by a $500 fine.

Do not interact with alligators. If you see an alligator on the Park grounds, you should back away slowly and ensure that all minors and pets are protected. Please contact the Park’s staff immediately if you spot any alligators on the Park grounds.

Repairs

Repairs to RVs and vehicles are not permitted in our park. We are happy to recommend a local Mobile RV Repair service that comes out to your site to assist you with any repairs. All persons engaged to assist with RV and/or vehicle repair must receive prior written approval before entering the Park.

Safety and Emergencies

Emergency Contact Information forms are required from all monthly guests. This information remains private and used only when a situation arises when we need to contact someone in the event of an emergency or is sought by law enforcement agencies. We will not give out personal information out to others.

If you observe any activity you believe to be of concern, call (346) 978 9804, 24 hours a day. (No soliciting is allowed.)

If you need to call 911 for any reason, and ONLY IF time allows, please call the office after making your emergency call.  This will help the staff be prepared to escort the emergency personnel to your campsite.
