Verde River RV Resort & Cottages

Rules & Regulations

In addition to the rules and regulations set forth below, all transient RVers and all extended daily occupancy RVers, i.e., those who agree to an occupancy of an RV site for an extended daily occupancy on a day-to-day basis (“EDO RVers”), shall be subject to and hereby agree to all the Rules and Regulations of Verde River RV Resort & Cottages (“VR” or the “Resort”).  The Resort reserves the right to amend and supplement Rules and Regulations upon five days’ written notice.  Continued occupancy at the Resort by all RVers is contingent on adherence to the Rules and Regulations of the Re, and a breach of the Rules and Regulations by any RVer may result in a Termination of Occupancy & Agreement and an immediate Demand to Vacate without further notice or process. 

RV SITE RENTAL OVERVIEW

Of course, shorter or longer stays will result in changes to the amount you owe calculated on our current pricing as we have “managed” rates.  Also, the rates are calculated on a maximum of two adults and two children under the age of 18 years occupying the site.  Additional guests staying at your site may be charged at a rate of up to $8/person per night.

The maximum number of people allowed on a single RV site for social gatherings of 60 minutes or longer is six people, unless otherwise approved by the resort Management. 

Rent is due on the Payment Date (the date when you check in for night, a week, a month or months).  RVers who desire an extended daily occupancy of longer than seven days must execute an Extended Daily Occupancy Agreement (an “EDO Agreement”).  Failure to pay rental amounts due on a timely basis may result in late fees and a daily rate charge for days during which the RVer is not current on their rental amounts owed.

The monthly EDO rate is for the consecutive nightly use of the site for a 30 or 31 night period (except for February which is a 28 or 29 night period).  If the site is not occupied for certain nights during the month, the EDO occupancy rate continues without decrease.

Additional nights exceeding the agreed EDO period (discounted weekly and / or monthly rates) will be charged at a prorated amount if notice of the extending the stay is given at least seven (7) days prior to the end of the original EDO rental period.  If notice of extending the stay is given less than seven days prior to the rental period, standard daily rates will be charged for the extended nights.   

Any site left unoccupied for 48 hours with no written notice of intent given to Office front desk shall be considered vacated and will be placed in the rental pool.

Subleasing the site is prohibited.  Anyone occupying the site during the absence of the original RVer who executed the site rental agreement will be charged the regular daily site fee.

REFUNDS OF RENTAL FEES ARE NOT GRANTED NOR ISSUED FOR ANY REASON.

Each RVer is required to comply with these Rules and Regulations and any EDO Agreement.  Failure to comply with any Rules & Regulations or the EDO Agreement may result in a Notice of Termination of Agreement and EDO Agreement and a Demand to Vacate the Resort within 24 to 120 hours.

Loud noise from whatever source that disturbs other RVers or conduct that makes other RVers uncomfortable or lessens their enjoyment of the Resort will not be tolerated and are grounds for an immediate Demand to Vacate.

VEHICLES

Each RV vehicle (RV Unit) shall be subject to VR’s approval at any time.  Only those RV Units that have been approved by VR, in its sole discretion, shall be utilized for extended daily occupancy RV sites (“the RV Unit” on an “RV site”). 

VR needs only consider motor homes, travel trailers, and fifth wheels of at least 15 feet in length for approval for placement on RV sites.  VR reserves the right to withhold its approval for recreational vehicles that it deems too large for the RV site to be occupied.  Older RV Units in disrepair are not permitted.  At all times, RV Units must have current registration, inspection, and be kept in good repair.  Proof of valid insurance is required.  RV Units shall be maintained in such a fashion that the RV Unit is removable from the Resort within 24 hours upon notice to do so. 

In addition to the RV, a maximum of one additional vehicle is allowed per site. All additional vehicles are subject to an additional daily fee of $5/day.   Additional vehicles include, but are not limited to, motorcycles, cargo trailers, car trailers, ATVs, golf carts, and other auto or trucks of any kind.  All vehicles must be always insured and running properly.  Vehicles may not be stored on a site for long periods of time when such site is not being occupied unless arrangements are made with the Resort.

No gas-powered golf carts are permitted. ATV’s, side-by-sides, etc may only be driven in and out of the park, no “cruising” the park.

Washing of vehicles, including the RV Unit, is strictly prohibited unless the standard $10 washing permit is paid.  Only approved RV washing companies are allowed on site to perform professional RV cleaning.

Mechanical work on any part of the car / vehicle / RV Unit parked at or in proximity to the site is not allowed.

Speed Limit through VR is 5 miles per hour. Strictly enforced.

OCCUPANCY

The occupancy at all RV sites is limited to a maximum of two (2) adults.  An “adult” includes but is not limited to all persons, including relatives and siblings, who are 18 years of age or older who stays at the RV site for longer than four nights.  There will be a surcharge RV site rental fee of $5/day for each adult over the two maximum permitted adults included in the RV site rental. 

Additionally, two (2) children under the age of 18 are permitted on a site without any additional surcharges or fees. However, due to extra maintenance and management oversight needed for children under 18 years of age, for each additional child that resides at the RV site over the two (2) children permitted, the Resort imposes an RV site rental surcharge fee of $2 per day per child.  For example, if an RVer family of two adults with three children under the age of 18 extends their daily occupancy for 30 days, and the extended daily occupancy RV site rental fee for the specific 30 day period is $600, the total charge for this family of five is $600 (for the two adults and two of the children) PLUS an additional $60 for the third child (30 days for the third child x $2/day = $60) for the 30 day extended daily occupancy period, making the total RV site rental amount for the monthly EDO equal to $600 + $60 = $660.   

Short-term absences from your monthly extended stay do not reduce the monthly site amount due.  Additional nights exceeding the monthly time period will be charged at a pro-rated EDO RV site rate if and only if notice is given seven (7) days in advance of the rental period.  If notice of site occupancy extension is given less than seven (7) days in advance of the end of the extended daily occupancy period per the Agreement, standard full daily rates will apply.  Any sites left unoccupied for forty-eight (48) hours) with no notice given to Management shall be considered vacated, and the site shall be returned to in the active rental pool.  Subleasing the site is strictly not allowed unless prior written approval from Resort Management is given. 

Guests are permitted to visit a registered RVer only on a short-term basis.  For a one-day period that is defined as 9am to 10pm, the “Daily Pass” Guest fee is $5 per person regardless of age.  Daily Pass Guests must leave VR by 10:00 PM if they are not an “Overnight Guest.”  For any guest, regardless of age, who desires to stay overnight at the registered RV site, prior approval must be obtained from the Office front desk personnel in writing for an “Overnight Pass” and each Overnight Guest must pay an additional fee of $8 per night.  No guests are allowed more than a four night Overnight Pass and will be required to rent a separate RV site should an Overnight Guest desire to stay longer than the maximum four-night period.

VR reserves the right to limit the number of guests per site.  If an RVer or their guests fail to register or pay the applicable Daily Pass or Overnight Pass fees, the registered RVer shall pay two times the applicable fee to VR.  Guests must display a parking pass and park in the overflow parking sections or in the parking lot.  It is the registered RVer’s (the “EDO RVer”) responsibility to notify VR of any and all guests.  VR reserves the right to refuse admittance or site rental to any guest.

VIDEO CAMERAS IN USE & DELIVERIES

The Resort uses video surveillance cameras for the safety and security of all the RVer guests.  Special deliveries should be coordinated with the Resort office, and daily deliveries of newspapers or similar types of daily deliveries are not allowed.

Tents are not allowed without prior approval from office management, in writing, and such approval will be given only for unique and / or special circumstances. Such approval for tents on a normal RV site may be withheld for any reason or no reason.  Driving stakes into the ground and any trenching are prohibited as there is a risk of damaging our underground utilities.  Repair to any damage to our utilities from an RVer staking or trenching will be the responsibility of the RVer who did not comply with these rules.

The number of plants, flowers, firewood and ornamental fixtures on the RV site may not be excessive, as determined in the sole discretion of the Resort.  No political signs or flags are permitted at anyone’s site. Grass cutting and weeding will be performed by the Resort, but our guests are allowed to cut the grass and pull the weeds, if any, on their site, as long as they clean it up.  Our goal is to keep grass and weeds under control and are not allowed to ever exceed four inches in height. 

Sites will be inspected periodically for overall cleanliness and compliance with the Rules.  Notices will be sent to those EDO and transient RVers that are not in compliance, and such notice shall be considered conclusion proof of a Rule violation. 

All fencing of any size, height, or length (including pet fencing) must be approved in advance by the office management in writing.  Household and personal articles may NOT be stored under or around your RV Unit.  Tables, chairs, bicycles, storage containers, lawn ornaments, etc., must be stored in your shed or RV Unit or removed from the site. Only one reasonably sized grill is allowed on the RV site.  Coolers of any size may not be kept outside the RV Unit or shed.  Blue tarps are NOT allowed on any site; any use of tarps must be limited and must be approved by then Resort Management in writing.  No skids (pallets) are allowed on the site.  Outdoor carpets are allowed only on hard surfaces and are not allowed to cover grass areas.

PET FRIENDLY PARK MODEL RV POLICY

We are pleased to offer our guests reserving our park model RVs (also known as “cottages”) special sites that are pet friendly.  Unlike our normal cottages, these pet friendly cottages do not include linens or linen service, e.g., these pet friendly cottages do not offer bed linens or towels or other washable items.  A cleaning and damage “pet deposit” of $250 is required to be paid at check-in.  This $250 pet deposit will be promptly refunded after a thorough check-out inspection confirms there has been no damage to the cottage, including no unusual wear and tear to furniture and rugs, and that there is not an unexpected amount of animal hair or debris in the cottage.  Damage to any part of the cottage and / or if the cottage has an excessive amount of animal hair or debris will result in the entire $250 pet deposit being applied to the cottage site rental fee and the entire pet deposit fee will not be refunded.  For example, if there is damage to the cottage interior wood such as dog claw marks on a door or door frame or a broken venetian blind, there will be no partial return of any of the $250 pet deposit.  For repair costs for cottage damage that exceeds the deposit amount of $250, all repair expenses in excess of $250 will be the total responsibility of the RVer guests who hereby authorize the Resort to charge the credit card to collect any and all repair costs in excess of the $250 deposit.  Of course, the $250 deposit will also be applied to repair costs.   

GOLF CARTS

All golf carts and ATVs must have a current VR registration sticker. There is a fee of $5 per night.

Gas powered golf carts are not permitted in the Resort without express written permission of VR.  Proof of insurance for your golf cart is required; please provide the office with a copy of your policy.  Any person operating the golf cart must be a minimum of 21 years of age and have in possession a valid driver’s license.  Anyone not adhering to this rule will be asked to remove their golf cart from VR and/or may have their occupancy of the site terminated for cause.

GATE CODE and DOOR CODES

All RVers will be given a gate code to gain access to the entrance gate.  This code is to be used for your site only and not to be given to ANY other guests or outsiders. Please meet all delivery drivers at the front of the resort – DO NOT give them the gate codes.

Many of the doors that open to our Amenity Rooms, e.g., the fitness room or the bathrooms, are provided for the exclusive use of our registered RVers and should not be used by others.  Any RVer found to pass along a gate or door code to any non-registered person shall be subject to a Demand to Vacate.

PETS

The RVer is responsible for their pet at all times. 

All dogs at the Resort must have a gentle disposition and must not be aggressive, nor prone to barking, nor aggressive towards other dogs, nor prone to lunging at RVers or other dogs.  While the Resort has certain leash free dog parks in which dogs can roam free, dogs at all other areas and times must be on a leash.  In the leash free dog parks, dogs are not permitted to dig in the turf without control nor exhibit aggressive behavior. Thus, in the best interest of maintaining peace and order in our leash free dog parks, the Resort Management may prohibit for any reason or for no reason any dog or RVer from use of the leash free dog parks. Cats must also be on a leash and should not be allowed to roam around off a leash. We will call animal control if this is not adhered to.

All guests must pick up after their dog, including pick up responsibilities in the leash free dog parks. Failure to adhere to this important rule may result in the dog being prohibited from any and all use of the leash free dog parks.   

No more than two pets of any kind shall be permitted at any site, one pet is included in the pricing, including an EDO RV Site, and all pets must be always kept quiet.  No dog that weighs more than 50 pounds is allowed in a cottage site; and the combined weight of two dogs for a cottage site is 100 pounds total.  Dogs must be always on a leash. Retractable leashes are NOT permitted! All pet waste must be immediately removed and placed in an appropriate trash receptacle. 

RVers seen not picking up after their pet will first be given a warning for their first recorded offense.  A second recorded offense will result in a fine of $50; and the third recorded offense may result in an immediate Termination of the Extended Daily Occupancy

Agreement or any other agreements with the Resort.  The occupancy of a third time Rule and Regulation offender shall be terminated with a Demand to Vacate. 

Dogs are not allowed to stay outside of the RV if the RV is unattended.  Dog houses or other pet houses are prohibited.  ANY and ALL dog fences must be pre-approved by the Resort manager.  Cats and other pets may not run free.  No pet is to be left unattended.  NO pet is allowed to be leashed or tied to a structure or fixture unattended for more than ten minutes.  Anyone not adhering to these pet regulations will be asked to remove their pet(s) from the Resort and may be subject to fines or may have their occupancy terminated immediately with a Demand to Vacate within 24 hours. 

RESPECT OF PERSON AND RESORT

It is VR’s goal to provide all occupants with a reasonable amount of privacy. Walking or passing through another RVer’s site is strictly prohibited.

UTILITY LINES AND UTILITY USE

Only the utility connections on your site are allowed for your use. Attachment to connections at another site is cause for immediate Demand to Vacate with no refunds.  Care must be taken to prevent leaks and seepage of water of any type (clear, grey, and black).  All water on any site must be properly directed to the sewer system found on your site.

MAIL AND PHONE

Mail may be sent to our street address for distribution in the Resort Reception Center.  We take no responsibility for the safeguard or delivery of mail or packages, and our mail handling procedures are not private.    

RULES AND REGULATIONS: NON COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES

All RVers must comply with all Rules and Regulations of the Resort, including RVers who have executed an Extended Daily Occupancy Agreement (an EDO Agreement).  Any RVer who is not in compliance with any of the Rules and Regulations (as amended and supplemented from time to time) may have their occupancy terminated for cause, including RVers who have executed an EDO Agreement.

In most but not all circumstances, and primarily for circumstances deemed egregious by the Resort and not in the best interest of the Resort, RVers in violation of these Rules and Regulations shall:

  1. for the first offense of any Rule or Regulation, the noncompliant RVer shall receive a written warning of the offense;
  2. for a second offense (of any kind), the noncompliant RVer shall be fined $50; and 
  3. for a third offense (of any kind), the noncompliant RVer shall be given an immediate Demand to Vacate. 

ALL RVers, INCLUDING AN RVer WHO HAS EXECUTED AN EXTENDED DAILY OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT, WHO IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ABOVE RULES AND REGULATIONS MAY HAVE THEIR OCCUPANCY TERMINATED WITH NO REFUNDS OF ANY DEPOSITS OR FEES. 

The Resort Management reserves the right to terminate this Agreement for any reason deemed in the best interests of the Resort, its employees, and RVer guests, or for no reason.  If the violation is egregious or threatens the health and safety of the Resort and its guests, the RVer agrees to immediately vacate the premises.   Failure to vacate upon termination of this Agreement shall subject such RVer to civil and criminal penalties as trespassers.  Such non-compliant RVers shall be responsible for all costs incurred, including reasonable attorney’s fees, to evict the RVer from the Resort and may subject the RVer to civil and criminal penalties.

When Management deems it prudent to issue a Demand to Vacate and a Termination of this Agreement, the RVer hereby accepts to the eviction process and agrees to vacate the resort immediately if in Management’s discretion the situation is egregious, or in less serious situations, agrees to vacate in up to 120 hours from Service of the Demand & Termination Notices.   

By registering at the front desk, completing the check-in process, and then having their RV Unit occupying a site at the Resort, the RVer acknowledges they have received and read these Rules and Regulations and will abide by such Rules and Regulations as may be amended and supplemented from time to time.  The RVer hereby states they agree to be legally bound to abide by this Agreement while an RVer at VR or while they have a RV Unit located at VR.  Moreover, with the execution of this Agreement, the RVer expressly authorizes VR to use the RVers credit card on file to settle any and all delinquent fees, rents, damages to cottages, or other charges as detailed in this Agreement.
