Wickham Park Rules and Regulations

Individuals must be 18 years of age or older to rent a campsite. The person renting the campsite is responsible to ensure all members of the camping party check-in with park staff, register their vehicle, and provide a valid photo ID prior to going to campsite. A parent or guardian must register and be on site with any campers under 18 years of age. The parent/guardian is responsible for the conduct of everyone camping and visiting their campsite. All campers under 18 years of age must be on their campsite during quiet hours (10:00 PM to 7:00 AM) unless accompanied by the parent/guardian camping on their site. All visitors must depart the campground by 10:00 PM unless they are registered as a guest.

Reservations can be made in person, online, email, or by telephone. Brevard County residents can make reservations up to 395 days (13 months) in advance of the stay. Non-residents can make reservations up to 180 days (6 months) in advance of the stay.

Length of Stay: Length of stay is based on availability and is not guaranteed. The maximum length of stay for RVs and camping units is 90 days per reservation and for tent campers, 14 days per reservation. After any stay, the registered camper(s) must remove their personal property and vacate the campground for a period of 48 hours before they can return to the same campground under a new reservation. After the maximum stay, you are permitted to stay at any other Brevard County campground. The minimum length of stay is one night.

Multiple Reservations: There is no limit to the number of active reservations a household can have provided it does not violate the length of stay rule.

Reserving Multiple Sites: Customers can book multiple sites to accommodate group camping and aid in securing adjacent sites for members of their group. Customers who book multiple sites must provide the names and site numbers from among the sites they reserved for each member of his/her party. Upon arrival, the intended site occupant must complete the check-in procedure. The person who booked multiple sites cannot complete the check-in procedure for sites they will not be occupying.

Reservation Changes: Reservations can be moved (day for day) one (1) time per reservation at no charge. After that, customers will be required to either keep the reservation currently on the books, or cancel the reservation with fees assessed. If a customer chooses to cancel, they may rebook a reservation after which they will again have one (1) opportunity to change the new reservation at no charge.

Brevard County Residency Fees: Brevard County residency will be established by using the customer’s Florida driver’s license or State of Florida ID card either when the reservation is made in person, or when the patron checks in if the reservation was made by phone or online. If a customer makes an online reservation as a Brevard County resident, residency will be validated at check-in. If a customer makes a reservation and/or pays for a reservation for another person (for example, someone making a group reservation), the resident discount is only applied if the occupant of the site shows proof of Brevard County residency despite the residency status of the person making or paying for the reservation.
