RULES OF THE PARK


RULES OF THE PARK


Speed Limit

For the safety of our guests, pets, and wildlife, the speed limit throughout the park is 5 MPH.

Please drive slowly and carefully at all times. Children, pets, and pedestrians may be present throughout the park, and we appreciate your help in keeping everyone safe.

Site Cleanliness & Trash

Guests are responsible for keeping their campsite clean and orderly.

Outdoor storage of boxes, appliances, furniture, building materials, or other miscellaneous items is not permitted. A neat and well-maintained campsite helps ensure an enjoyable experience for everyone.

Please dispose of all trash in designated receptacles.

Quiet Hours

Quiet hours are observed daily from 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM.

Please be considerate of your neighbors by keeping voices, music, televisions, and other noise to a respectful level during these hours.

Out of courtesy to all guests, excessive noise is not permitted at any time.

Children

Children are always welcome at Black Rabbit RV Park.

Parents and guardians are responsible for the safety, supervision, and conduct of their children at all times. Please ensure children respect neighboring campsites and do not play in or travel through occupied sites.

Water & Utility Connections

To protect your RV's plumbing system, a water pressure regulator is strongly recommended. Park water pressure may reach up to 100 PSI.

If you notice a leaking water, sewer, or utility connection, please repair it promptly or notify park management so we can help address the issue.

RV Occupancy

All RVs must be occupied by the registered guest listed on the reservation.

Subletting, renting, or allowing others to occupy your RV while it is parked in the campground is not permitted without prior written approval from management.

Insurance

Guests are responsible for maintaining appropriate insurance coverage for their RV, vehicles, personal property, and liability while staying at the park.

Black Rabbit RV Park does not provide insurance coverage for guest-owned RVs, vehicles, personal belongings, or liability arising from a guest's actions or activities while on park property.

We encourage all guests to consult with their insurance provider to ensure they have adequate coverage for their stay.

Pets

We love pets and are happy to welcome well-behaved dogs, cats, and rabbits to Black Rabbit RV Park.

For the safety and comfort of all guests, pets must be kept on a leash whenever they are outside your RV or campsite. Please clean up after your pets promptly. A $50 cleanup fee may be assessed for pet waste that is not picked up.

Please review our Pet Guidelines for additional information.

Parking

Please park your RV and vehicles within your assigned site. To help keep the park looking its best, parking on grass, landscaped areas, or vacant RV sites is not permitted.

If you have extra vehicles, trailers, or equipment, please stop by the office and we'll be happy to help you find an appropriate parking area.

Guests are responsible for any damage caused to park property, utilities, or landscaping by themselves or their visitors.

Sewer Connections

To help maintain a clean and pleasant environment for everyone, please keep your sewer valve closed except when emptying your holding tanks.

Leaving the valve open can lead to unpleasant odors and sanitation issues, especially during warmer weather. Holding tank treatments and deodorizers are available at the office if needed.

Check-Out & Payments

Check-out time is 11:00 AM.

We kindly ask that all site fees be paid in advance. Reservations are non-refundable, and we are unable to provide refunds or prorated credits for early departures or unused nights.

Trip Insurance

Optional trip insurance is available during the reservation process and can provide coverage for certain unexpected travel interruptions.

If you purchase trip insurance and need to file a claim or cancel your coverage, please contact the insurance provider directly using the information provided in your booking confirmation email. Black Rabbit RV Park is not able to process insurance claims or cancellations.

Cancellation Policy

We understand that plans can change.

All reservation cancellations are subject to a 20% cancellation fee. To qualify for any available refund, cancellations or reservation changes must be made at least 14 days prior to your arrival date.

Reservations of 21 days or longer require at least 30 days' notice for cancellation.

If your plans change, please contact us as soon as possible and we'll do our best to assist you.

Wildlife

One of the special things about staying in Montana is sharing the landscape with its incredible wildlife. Deer, rabbits, birds, moose, and other native animals are commonly seen throughout the park.

For your safety and the well-being of the animals, please do not feed, approach, touch, or attempt to interact with wildlife. Pets must remain leashed at all times and should not chase or disturb wildlife.

We appreciate your help in protecting the animals that call the Bitterroot Valley home.

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.”


-Age Limit

Please note that “good condition” does not mean “new,” and we do not typically have an age limit for RVs.


-Appearance Guidelines

Overall, the RV should look and function as it was originally designed. While we can’t provide a list including every possible scenario, following are a few examples that should be helpful:

  • Doors, shrouds, panels, windows and coverings, etc. should be intact and not unsightly.
  • Exterior should be not unsightly, and should be free of obvious, poorly-repaired damages.
  • Tarps cannot be used for weatherproofing and awnings should be in good condition.
  • Air conditioning units should not be added through the walls or windows unless previously approved.
  • All hoses, wires, etc. should route through ports as originally designed.
  • Exterior should be free of duct tape, repair tape, excessive caulk, etc.
  • Unsightly RV skirting should be removed.
  • RV's in long term spots are required to be skirted and meet the Black Rabbit skirting standards(see park manager for details).
  • Vehicles stored in storage lots are required to be well maintained. Flat tires, damaged vehicles and vehicles in a state of disrepair will not be eligible for storage at Black Rabbit.


Isolated minor issues are generally acceptable, provided multiple issues aren’t combined to substantially deteriorate the appearance of an RV:

  • Minor body damage which has been properly repaired but is still visible.
  • Fading of decals and/or paint.
  • Minor window cracking, although replacements should be scheduled.
  • Damage from traveling that has just happened, especially if you have a repair plan.

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:


-Recreational vs. Residence

For our seasonal or annual campers, we need to remember that your campsite is a recreational site and not a residence.  Our seasonal Customers shall use their RV and site for recreational purposes only and shall not use their RV and site as a permanent residence. 


-Safety Guidelines

  • Campsites should be clean and neat, free of fire hazards and clutter.
  • Customers shall not make any alteration to the electric, water or sewer connections provided by the campground/resort.
  • Customers should adhere to specific legal requirements when connecting to sewer, water and electric services at the campground/resort.
  • Customers should be able to move your rig very quickly in case of emergency.
