Golf Carts for Campgrounds

Are you jealous because you saw a golf cart at the campground?  What are the requirements for having a golf cart at the campground?  Some campgrounds will allow you to have a golf cart if they meet certain inspection and certifications.   

Requirements for Golf Cart Use at Campgrounds

  1. Inspection and Certifications:

    • Some campgrounds may require your golf cart to undergo a safety inspection and meet certain certifications before use. Check with the specific campground for their requirements.

  2. Mandatory Accessories:

    • Mirrors: Side mirrors and a rearview mirror are often required for visibility and safety.
    • Lights: Both front headlights and rear taillights are typically required for driving during low-light conditions or at night.
    • Horn: A functioning horn is necessary for alerting others in case of emergencies.
    • Seatbelts: Some campgrounds may require seatbelts, especially if children are using the golf cart.

  3. Safety Checks:

    • Tires: Ensure that the tires are in good condition with adequate tread and no visible damage.
    • Brakes: Check that the brakes are functioning properly.

Additional Considerations

  1. Type of Golf Cart:

    • Electric or Gas: Determine whether your golf cart is electric or gas-powered. This may affect where and how you can use it, as some campgrounds have restrictions on gas-powered vehicles.
    • Charger: If your golf cart is electric, ensure you have a charger and access to charging facilities at the campground.

  2. Features:

    • Roof: A roof can provide protection from the sun and rain, enhancing comfort and usability.
    • Storage: Check for sufficient storage space for any camping gear or personal items you may need to transport.

  3. Documentation:

    • Carry any necessary documentation, such as proof of ownership, insurance, and any required permits or inspection certificates.
