RECREATION VEHICLE UNITS

All units that occupy a site for the season must comply with the general guidelines below and are welcomed solely at the discretion of the Resort.

The minimum length is 24 feet. All units must have a full-service bathroom. No pop-up/pop-out units or tents are allowed during a seasonal term. No units with any soft canvas-type material are permitted. Only one recreational vehicle per site is permitted.

The unit that is approved and registered at the beginning of the season for a particular site is the only unit that may be used on that Seasonal Site unless the Seasonal Camper has another RV unit approved by the Campground for use on the site. Portable type canvas screen rooms attached to awnings are not allowed. Wheels may not be removed from any unit. Park Model units must be skirted with breakaway skirting.

Failure to do so will result in one warning. If no satisfactory results occur within 7 days, the RV unit will be cleaned and a fee will be charged to the Seasonal Camper.

UTILITIES

The campground provides electrical hookups and meters on each site. Seasonal Campers must provide the hookup from the RV unit to the power pedestal. You will be billed for your electric use by the Petoskey KOA RV & Cabin Resort. Water is provided by the Campground and should not be wasted. When watering plants or shrubbery, care should be taken that water not flow into the street. Wasting of water will be considered a violation of rules when possible please hook up watering devises to the deduct meters provided though out the seasonal area or ask management for proper hookup.

REQUESTS AND COMMENTS

All requests for site modification including placement and design of defined beds must be submitted in writing to the Campground with a detailed landscape drawing to scale. No work is to begin on any project until you have received written approval. In the event that a seasonal guest no longer wishes to rent the lot the resort may request the lot be returned to its original condition with alterations removed. This removal will be at the expense of the guest.

SITE MAINTENANCE

The Petoskey KOA RV & Cabin Resort is responsible for maintenance of all utility systems and trash collection. The Campground will cut grass in areas that are at least 6 feet wide and are easily accessible to the power mowers. The Seasonal Camper is responsible for trimming the grass where not easily accessible by the power mower. The Campground must approve the location of all plantings including flowers and any object placed on the lawn. Please consult the Campground in regards to planting and digging of any kind due to underground wiring and utilities. Please do not deface or cut any planting or trees.

No fences are permitted for pets or any other purpose. Porches and decks are allowed only on Park Homes. The size and design is to be approved by the Petoskey KOA RV & Cabin Resort and must have a building permit if one is required. Decks of less than 10’ in width are permitted on the door side of the unit and up to 4’ on the front. No decks are allowed on the rear of the unit or on the off-door side. Decks may only extend to the rear edge of the unit. A small set of stairs may extend past the end of the unit in most cases.

VEHICLES AND PARKING

Parking space sufficient to accommodate one vehicle is provided for each site provided the RV is properly placed to allow room. Additional vehicles need to be parked in one of our limited extra spaces in the seasonal loop or in our overflow parking located at the front of the park near the main entrance. Please DO NOT PARK on vacant sites, roads, or any grass area. If there is an issue with guests and visitors parking, please see the Office for a pass to park in another area. Golf carts must be equipped with headlights if operated after dark. Only those who are 16 & over and licensed, and insured drivers, may operate carts or any vehicle inside the park. All vehicles must be operated in a responsible manner. Vehicle repairs requiring any disassembly of parts are not allowed including changing of vehicle fluids. No bicycle riding or rollerblading after dark in the Campground. The Resort does offer long term storage for our seasonal guests. Inform the front desk of all trailers, boats, and other RV’s before they are parked in the storage lot in front of park.

USE AND SUBLETTING OF SEASONAL SITE

The Seasonal Site is to be used only by the Seasonal Camper who registered at the beginning of the season. Seasonal sites may not be subleased. No peddling, soliciting, or operating a commercial enterprise is allowed in the campground.

OVERNIGHT GUESTS AND DAILY VISITORS

If you are expecting guests or visitors, you may pre-register them at the Campground Office to receive a parking permit. Guests and visitors must park in designated parking areas either in the Seasonal Section or outside the Seasonal Gate, and display their parking permit. Guests and their actions will be the responsibility of the Seasonal Camper.

CAMPING ETIQUETTE

The respect of all Seasonal Campers should be a priority. Please do not walk through another’s lot. Always use the roadway as the path when out for a stroll. Quiet hours are at 10:00 pm and your neighbor’s quiet enjoyment of their lot should be taken into consideration after hours.

CHILDREN

Parents are responsible for their children’s safety and conduct at all times. Parents are responsible for any and all damage caused by their children. Children of guests or visitors are under the combined responsibility of their parents as well as the Seasonal Camper they are visiting.

PETS

House pets are allowed in RV units and will be limited to a total of 2 per lot at any given time during the season. When the pet is outside, they must be on a leash and be accompanied by the owner. Owners must clean up after their pets. Please act responsibly when taking your pet to the Dog Walk area. Other Seasonal Campers don’t appreciate your pet making deposits of any kind on their sites. Any pet causing noise, disturbance, or complaints from other campers must be removed from the Campground if requested by the Resort.

RESALE OF RECREATIONAL VEHICLE UNITS

The Campground Sales Office will handle the sale of used units for a 7% commission. When a unit is sold and the buyer wishes the unit to remain on the site, this must be approved by the Petoskey KOA RV & Cabin Resort. Approval of the unit to remain on the site after it is sold is based partly on the evaluation of the age and condition of the unit and the availability of a Seasonal Site. Granting usage to a new Park Model or RV owner is done completely at the discretion of the Campground ownership.

For Sale by Owner:

Seasonal residents wanting to sell an RV unit that is parked on a Seasonal Site must first notify the Campground of their intent to do so. Only an approved “For Sale” sign may be used by the owner. Units sold by owner will not be facilitated or shown by the KOA sales office.

LODGE BUILDING USEAGE

If you have a need to use the Lodge Building for an activity or gathering, please contact Resort management. Should you decide to host an activity or gathering, please be responsible for the set up and cleanup of the building. If you require assistance, please mention to management when requesting use of the building.

LODGE KEY AND GATE REMOTE

As a Seasonal Camper, you will receive a key to the Lodge Building. Seasonal Campers will also receive a remote opener for the Seasonal Gate or have the ability to program their car remote control. This gate remote and lodge key is to be given back at the end of the year as to keep an inventory. There may be other guests or staff members who utilize the Lodge Building.

MAIL DELIVERY

In the Lodge Building there is a mail slot unit. The office will pick up all mail from our mailbox, sort, and place your mail in the slots marked with your name. You are welcome to place any outgoing mail in the basket in the office. If you receive any packages too big for your mail slot, we will first try to deliver them to your site. If you are not at home, we will leave you a note saying your package is sitting next to the mail slot unit in the Lodge Building. Please check your mail slot frequently even though you don’t normally receive mail. Following your departure for the Season, please make arrangements for the forwarding of your mail. The Petoskey Post Office cannot forward any of your mail from our address.

OPTIONAL MAIL

In lieu of receiving your mail at the Campground, you could get a Post Office Box at the Conway Post Office, which is just three miles north of the Campground on US 31.
