Definition of a visitor: A
visitor is a person that comes to your trailer
for any length of time: to visit, to eat, or
sleep over in your trailer. ALL campers
including seasonals must have their guest stop
in and register at store. They will either
pay for themselves or have a car pass waiting
for them paid by you. They will receive a car
pass that must be placed on their mirror. They
will be instructed to unload at your site. They
must park in the visitors parking area. If they
need assistance and need to park at your site,
please move your car to the parking area. Do not
park on your neighbors’ site.
Security Gate: The main gate is closed when
the store is closed. Get a gate pass (leave a
refundable deposit) to use if coming in late. Do
not go around the gate and do not open manually.
You break-you pay. If you forget your pass, call
the office.
Parental Responsibilities: Adults/Parents will be held
responsible for the children camping with them
at all times. We are not responsible for
babysitting. Please know where they are at all
times. If they are not in sight of the adult and
there is a problem, the adult/parent will be
notified. If there are disturbances that cannot
be rectified, management has the right to ask
the campers to leave without refunds. Children
should not leave campsites after dark, unless
accompanied by an adult. Children 12 and
under will NOT be allowed at the fishing/peddle
boat pond unless they
have adult supervision with them. Pool rules will be posted by
pool. No one under the age of 17 is permitted to
be in the pool without an adult present.
Children in diapers should have swimming diapers
on while in the water. Children 6 and under must
be accompanied by a parent to the playground, walking
around the park, and restrooms. Children should
not walk or bike thru sites. Explain the hazards
of strangers. This is for the safety of the
child.
Bicycle Riding: There will be no bike riding after dark by adults/children. Bikes
should be ridden on roadways – not thru sites or
grassy areas. Pennsylvania State law requires
children 12 and under to wear helmets when
riding.
Alcohol: Alcohol is permitted with
responsibility on your own site. No underage
drinking is permitted. Any violators will be
asked to leave immediately. Recycle all aluminum
cans in proper receptacle.
Rental Equipment & Life Vests: Paddle boats and peddle carts
are rentable. NO one is allowed to take either
out without paying first and signing the
insurance waiver. Children must wear life
jackets while on the paddle boats even if they
can swim. If you cannot swim you must wear them.
If your Frisbee disc goes into the water you

Pets: All pets need
updated shots. Management has the right to ask
for proof of shots. No aggressive breeds are
permitted. Only 2 dogs are permitted to come
camping per site. If a pet bites another person
or animal, you will be put on notice. Per
insurance if the owner does not do anything
about a biting pet they will not cover the
insurance claim. Your stay with Dogwood Acres
Campground, Inc. can become null and void with
no refunds for early exit. Please keep pets on a
leash (even on your site). They cannot be
intrusive on your neighbors. The leash should be
short. This ensures that the animal stays within
eye contact. Your animal must be under control,
and quiet at all times. Pet owners are
responsible for cleaning up after their pets.
This means anywhere on the campground property.
Even if we can’t see you, pick it up. We have a
poop can for disposal next to garbage hopper.
Per the Department of Health, our playground and restrooms are off limits to
pets. Do not leave pets outside your camper when
you leave your site. We are charging $10.00 a
day extra for dogs/cats in the cabins. Stay on
campground property. Signs are posted please
observe.
Trash Disposal: The dumpster is for household
trash only. No bulky items, cardboard, or metal.
Put them in the container next to the dumpster.
Waste Mgt. will not pick up items left alongside
of dumpsters. Please inform management if you
need to drop something off that is bigger then
the dumpster. Recycle aluminum cans in green
containers, for charity.
Sewage Disposal: Direct dumping into the
sewer collecting facility is prohibited.
CHEMICALS MUST BE used in your holding tank
to prevent clogging of the lines and to prevent
odor. These products are non-toxic and actually
break down waste and aids in the prevention of
clogged lines. They do not contain formaldehyde.
We have products in the store. This will help
maintain our sand mound and prevent costly
upkeep. A sewer seal must be used (available in
store). Finally, all black and grey sewer valves
must remain closed at all times, except when
dumping. This will give the chemicals time to
break down the solids.
Clotheslines and Laundry: Clotheslines are permitted
for daytime towel drying only. NO clothes
washing in the outside or inside bathhouse
sinks.
General Liability: All persons using the
campground and your site agree to abide by and
