Sea-Vu South was developed in 1990 by the Talevi family.  It is now owned and operated by Sea-Vu South Associates.  At the direction of the partnership these rules and regulations are put forth for your safety and security.  Our success is directly contributed to our many campers.  In our effort to provide the best seasonal resort environment we have put together the Sea-Vu South Handbook.  Please take the time to read and understand the  following rules and guidelines and help make our resort community one we can all be proud of!
~ GENERAL RULES ~

Security Code:  Each Seasonal Site will be assigned a security code.  Your security code is for security reasons…the more you give your code out the less secure your campground is!  As an added measure of safety please have all guests and visitors check in at the office when arriving.

Family and Visitors:  Each camper is responsible for his or her family and guests.  Children under 18 can not be left unattended at the site overnight.

Quite hours are from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m.

When having extended family and guests visit your site please be respectful of your neighbors.  Extended overnight stays by large groups is not allowed.

For everyone’s safety please observe our resort speed limit of 5 mph!

Washing of cars is not permitted!  Trailers may be pressure washed  at the beginning and end of the season.

Pets: Sea-Vu South allows pets because we realize that pets are a part of many camping families.  All pets must be kept on a leash.  Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pet, this includes all wooded  and common areas.  For your convenience, "clean-up bags" are provided around the campground.   Please do not leave your pet unattended if you are leaving for the day.  Owners will be required to remove pets that make excessive noise.

Social Gatherings: Please be considerate of your neighbors when hosting a social event.  All teenagers and children have to be on their sites by 10:00 pm.

Campfires must be attended at all times and kept under control, please extinguish completely when retiring for the night.

 Alcohol is to be kept on site and is not allowed in the common areas.

When in doubt please ask the office!

~ UTILITIES AND RUBBISH ~

Water: In an effort to keep our water service free please be responsible with water usage.  Lawn watering is restricted to early morning or evening hours.

Cable TV: Your site comes equipped with basic cable TV.  Extended channels, broadband internet and other options are available through our service provider.  See the office for contact information.

Electric:  Electric usage is metered on your site.  The office will read your meter and bill you twice seasonally.  Locking your utility box is prohibited.

Propane: Please write your name and site # on the cylinder and drop your propane tank off at the gate.  We will fill your tank and return it to you.  Payment shall be made when the tank is delievered or shortly thereafter at the office.  Tanks will be filled each morning between 8-10 a.m.  If you need a tank to be filled at another time, Sea-Vu on Rte. 1 also has a fill station.

Propane tanks or other hazardous materials are never allowed in the dumpsters and can pose a severe risk if placed there.

~ YOUR SEASONAL SITE ~

A seasonal rental gives your family the use of a site from Mother's Day to Columbus Day weekend.  The maintenance and upkeep of your site is your responsibility.  We do request that you check with the office before starting any site work.

There is a set back of 5 feet from the edge of the roadway for emergency vehicle purposes.  This area is to be grass only, plantings or structures of any kind are prohibited.

Landscaping:  Shrubs, trees, flowering bushes and flowers are encouraged and may be located any where outside the set back area.

Fireplaces are allowed any where on the site provided there is a 12 foot diameter free zone around it.  This means trees, overhanging branches, trailers, or automobiles cannot be located within this circle.

Patios or other ‘hardscape’ elements are restricted to 100 sq feet in area in an effort to keep adequate green space throughout the resort.

Walls, fences, hedges or other elements are not allowed to identify or define your site boundary.

SCREEN HOUSES:

  1. A screen house can be a maximum of 8 feet wide: i.e. the distance from the side of the trailer to the outside edge of the screen house wall.
  2. The roof of the screen house can be a travel trailer awning, either auto or manual roll up: an insulated rigid roof by Silver Top, or a fold down rigid roof by Silver Top.
  3. The length of the screen house cannot exceed the length of the awning and the awning cannot exceed the length of the trailer.
  4. The walls of the screen house can be:
    • The conventional vinyl/screen combination normally purchased with a travel trailer.  These have a zipper dorway.
    • Screen panels with screen fabricated from 8 to 12 sided free standing screen houses.  These screen houses are usually found at large department stores and lumber yards.
    • Screen panels with screen door and an aluminum frame which has struts for awning support and wall stabilization.  The panels snap into the frame work.
    • Florida rooms by Silver Top.  Screen rooms or Florida rooms can be 8' wide and as long as the trailer.  Screen rooms under a travel trailer awning or the fold down roof by Silver Top can be as long as the awning.
  5. Wood structures are not allowed.  The only wood allowed is a triangular piece of 1/2" plywood used to fill in the space between the top of the screen panels and the awning on the two sides of the screen house.
  6. Guy chains, rope, wire, and hurricane straps for bracing the awning are permitted as long as the chains, rope, etc. and anchor pins are identified with pieces of bright marking tape.  This will prevent injury to children and guests.  If you use the space under your trailer for storage, then skirting between your trailer and the ground is required.  Please use pressure treated lattice, available at most lumber yards, or vinyl skirting.  The space between your trailer and the deck can be skirted with conventional snap or skirting, screening, or interlocking vinyl siding to help keep flying insects out of your screen house.

DECKS:

Decks can be built using either 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 pressure treated wood for frames, and 5/4 x 6 pressure treated decking on top.

Decks must also be built in sections, each being no larger than 8' x 8'.

The maximum size is 8' wide by 40' long, or from the trailer hitch to the bumper.

Again, PLEASE SEE DAVE BEFORE ANY WORK IS STARTED.  The town requires building permits on decks and certain rooms.

Storage Boxes:  Sites are allowed storage boxes with a maximum width of 6 feet and depth of 3 feet.  Height may vary but not exceed 7 feet.  Up to two storage boxes are permitted provided they fit directly behind your trailer and porch.  Storage boxes are not allowed to be located in any other area of your site.

Tents: A tent for guests is allowed in the area directly adjacent to the trailer awning.  The tent can remain for a maximum of two weeks.  After that, the ground must remain uncovered to allow time for vegetation to regenerate.

Note:  When leaving the trailer after the weekend, it is advisable to turn off the hot water heater, furnace, A/C, gas tanks and water line.  make sure you have a good pitch to your awning so rain water runs off quickly without puddling.  Also, anchor your awning down with hurricane straps or guy wires secured to the ground or your deck.  This will keep the awning from lifting in heavy winds.  State law requires all seasonal RV's to use rigid sewer pipe in lieu of the flexible hose.  Sea-Vu South will connect your trailer.  The only charge to you is for materials and sales tax.

Common areas, wooded buffers, and utility corridors:  All sites abut some kind of common area be it a wooded perimeter or the utility corridor that runs down the back of most trailers.  Unrestricted access to these areas is essential should a utility or maintenance problem ever occur.  As a result placement of any structure, storage box, hardscape, or large planting is prohibited.  Flowers and small plants are acceptable.

When in doubt please ask the office!

~ OFF SEASON ~

Much of the work we do to keep our resort looking beautiful and running flawlessly happens when your not here.  The late fall and early spring are essential times for us to complete necessary maintenance and repair on our utilities and facilities.  As a result you may not stay in your unit when the park is closed.

Winterizing:  You will be responsible for winterizing your unit by closing weekend.  All utilities will be terminated at the close of the season. To ensure that your unit is ready please remove all liquid and perishable items by the end of closing weekend.  Make sure the office has a key to every door of your unit.  Remove any obstructions to water outlets and access doors both inside and out.  The resort will not be responsible for units that are not properly prepared by the close of the season!
If you would like to check on your unit in the off season please call the office first.  Often times, due to work or weather, you unit may be inaccessible.

~ SELLING YOUR HOME ~

We realize that a Park Home on a beautiful site is very attractive to a potential buyer but remember the trailer sale and site rental are separate transactions.  Some of the conditions to allow an on site sale are as follows:

You must be up to date on all payments owed to the park.  Buyers need to be interviewed and approved by the office.  Any party purchasing your trailer will be obligated to pay the prorated site rental fee.  A trailer older than 8 years cannot be sold on site.

Once approved, the seller will be charged a sales fee of $3000.00.  Any additional work required at the time of sale will be assessed and billed accordingly.

All sales involving Sea-Vu South must be approved by David B. Talevi.   Sea-Vu South reserves the right to regulate and approve all sales, including price.  If any problem should arise regarding a sales transaction Sea-Vu South reserves the right to remove the home from the park.
