Sunshine Campground Maine – Regulations

Posted by on August 3, 2011

UPDATE 2011: Sunshine Campground Maine is now closed.

THIS INFORMATION IS FOR ARCHIVE PURPOSES ONLY

General Ground Rules – Sunshine Campground is open June 17 through September 6. Check in time is 11:00am. Check out time is 10:30am. Please be courteous to the other campers and customers using our facilities and keep noise to a reasonable level. After 9:00 pm, we expect that noise from one site will not keep campers at another site awake. Clean up any messes you make in the bathhouse, even “little floods” around the sink. Any problems should be reported to the Sunshine Campground office.

If any of our resident raccoons, red squirrels or foxes make your acquaintance, please don’t feed them. The coons are very intelligent and a real pain. If they smell food in your tent they will try to get in even if you are in it! The only totally safe place for food is in your car.

Please drive VERY SLOWLY on the Sunshine Campground premises due to playing children and those of us that like to stroll!

WE HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR DRUG USE AND DRUNKENNESS. You will be asked to leave for disorderly conduct. No refunds will be given.

SUNSHINE CAMPGROUND Regulations

Sunshine Campground Fires - Keep the woods and property safe! Please build fires only in the designated fire rings located around the campsites and leave no fires unattended. Do not move fire rings. Keep fires small. Fires should not be smoldering if you are not there.

If there is a drought then fires may not be allowed. If there is a fire and you can safely put it out do so. Then report it to the office. If a fire is out of control notify the office and move to a safe area either up wind or off of the property. Please do not block parking lot or driveway so that fire and rescue equipment can go where they need to go. Make sure that your family or group is all accounted for and safe.
