Recreational Occupant vs. Residential Tennant
For our long term campers and those staying in our RVs in Place, please remember that your campsite is a recreational site and not a residence. Customers shall use their own RV or their rented RV in Place and site for recreational purposes only and shall not use the site as a permanent residence. Length of stay requirements are based on legal requirements and property established guidelines. If you have regular postal mail delivered to either address listed for Gray Ranch or use the property to establish residency, you will be immediately asked to leave the property and you will forfeit any previously paid reserved nights on your stay. Please ask management about receiving UPS and/or FedEx packages at Gray Ranch.
Pets/Animals
Horses, dogs, chickens, and ducks freely roam the property. They are all friendly and trained. If you wish to bring your pet with you, please register your animal when making your reservation. All pets must be registered with the office and vaccination records must be available upon request, and all pets must wear a collar identifying the owner and phone number. For the protection of, and in consideration to other persons, noisy, aggressive, vicious, unruly or poisonous pets are not allowed on the property. Persons who are unable to control their pets must remove them from Gray Ranch, or the animal may be taken to/by local animal control authorities.
Age Limit
Please note that “good condition” does not mean “new,” and we do not typically have an age limit for RVs.
RV Standards
The quality of RVs in a resort or campground can contribute to or detract from the overall experience of all the campers. For this reason, we enforce some standards of appearance on RVs, similar to those in place at many other RV resorts and campgrounds. Our property rules state that “all vehicles must be operable and in good condition.” We think it may be helpful to outline a few examples of what is meant by “good condition.” Any vehicle or RV on the property must be able to be moved at any time. If a vehicle is not in running condition, it must be repaired or removed from the property. Repairs on-site are permitted.
Site Standards
We all need to be good neighbors to our fellow campers! No one likes to camp next to a messy site, and a messy campsite can be an open invitation to unwanted wildlife. Following are some guidelines to help everyone be a good neighbor in the campground: Do not leave food out unattended and dispose of all trash. Pick up after your pets and children. Blue trash bins are located just outside the gate. Trash must be in tied bags. Burnable trash, excluding food items, can be disposed of in the fire pit. Please respect other campers' space. We do not have traditional camp sites and distinguishable private camping areas so please follow common campsite practices. You may establish your camping area around your RV or tent. Please do not walk through other campers' "camping area."
Please note that these guidelines and examples are not intended to address all possible situations that may arise at this property. Individual private properties may have specific rules, regulations or guidelines relating to the individual sites. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to address management. Most importantly, we hope you enjoy your stay with us!
Pets in Rental Units
• Pets will be allowed in certain rental units upon payment of a non refundable pet fee and upon approval by management. Please note that any guest wishing to bring a pet and use a rental unit must advise Management of this fact when making their reservation arrangements. Pets must be kenneled when left in rental units unattended. Owner must provide a size appropriate kennel for their pets. Pets must be leashed when outside.
RV and Site Standards & Guidelines
Your satisfaction is very important to us. We appreciate that you have chosen to spend your time with us and want to make sure you and all our guests enjoy their stay. With this in mind, we have outlined some basic RV standards and site standards to ensure that we maintain a standard of quality at our private property.
Refundable Security Deposit
If you reserve an RV in Place at Gray Ranch, a $500 refundable security deposit is required. Upon check-out of the camper, the deposit will be refunded to your payment method on file provided there is no damage to the camper. We require a credit or debit card for this security deposit. NO CASH WILL BE HELD AS A SECURITY DEPOSIT.

RV Certification
RVs should have RVIA certification. RVIA certification states the rig complies with certain fire codes, which are important for the safety of our guests. Occasionally, exceptions can be granted by Managers and/or Regional Managers on a case- by-case basis for non-RVIA rigs which seem to conform to safety requirements and are of a design and style compatible with the park. A park model RV, also known as a recreational park trailer, should be certified by the manufacturer and built in accordance with the ANSI code.
