Pet Friendly Campground

A Pet-Friendly Resort & Campground

Ocean View Resort Campground is a pet-friendly campground. To ensure that all campers have an enjoyable experience, we have established a few rules for those of you who travel with your pets.

  • There are no additional fees for pets.  
  • The pets must be safe for our family camping environment.  The pets must be of a safe and quiet temperament.  
  • Pets are not permitted with rental cottages or cabins.
  • Pets must be licensed in their home state and have an up-to-date rabies vaccination. 
  • Campers must have proof of rabies vaccination available in the event that OVR considers a necessity to request proof of rabies vaccination.
  • Pets are not permitted in our swimming areas (lake & pool) or our buildings.
  • Pets may not be left unattended and must be under control of their owner at all times.
  • Pets must be on a leash less than 6 feet in length whenever they are outside of the interior of the camper’s recreational vehicle.
  • Pets on a leash must be walked by a person strong enough to control their pet should the pet become excited.
  • Please clean up after your pets or your pets will no longer be welcome at the campground. 
  • No loud barking or unruly behavior.
  • Please check with the Campground Office before bringing any exotic pets onto the campground property.
  • Pets in tents are permitted, but not recommended.
