Drive safe, have funGolf Cart & RUV Rules
Bringing your own golf cart or recreational vehicle to Splashway Campground? Here’s what you need to know before you arrive, so everyone can enjoy a safe, peaceful stay.
Four rules for every cart
These apply to every golf cart and recreational vehicle on Splashway property.
- 1
No drivers under 18
Nobody under the age of 18 may drive a golf cart or recreational vehicle on Splashway property, even with a parent’s permission. Drivers must be responsible, licensed adults.
- 2
Check in and display your tag
Every personal golf cart and recreational vehicle must be checked in, approved and tagged. Keep your tag where staff can clearly see it.
- 3
Keep it under 5 MPH
Drive slowly and safely at all times. No vehicles on hiking trails or bridges meant for walkers, and louder vehicles must be parked at your site by 10 PM.
- 4
Point A to point B
Carts are for getting your family around the campground. Please no cruising or joyriding.
Tags & fees
Pick up your tag at the Adventure Station or the Camp Store during operating hours.
Annual tag
One tag for your cart for the year. Display it on your cart at all times.
Weekend pass
Good for a single visit or weekend. Upgrade it to an annual tag before the end of that visit.
If the rules are broken
- Underage or reckless driving, or a cart without a visible tag, gets one warning.
- After that, your family’s season passes will be revoked, and you’ll be asked to leave and not return to Splashway Campground.
- See unsafe driving? Please report it to management or the Camp Store right away.
Before you bring your cart
- Check that your vehicle is on our approved vehicle list. Lifted vehicles with oversized tires and loud modified exhaust aren’t allowed.
- E-bikes, electric scooters, hoverboards and other recreational electric riding devices aren’t allowed anywhere in the campground. See the electric riding device policy.
- No cart? Rent one during your stay.
