Every campground sits in a zoning category.
Common ones include:
- Recreational
- General Rural
- Ag/Forest
- Commercial
- Special Use
- Non-conforming / grandfathered
Buyers must know:
If a campground is non-conforming, expansion might be:
- prohibited
- limited
- allowed only with major approvals
Zoning can restrict:
- Number of sites
- Density
- Utilities
- Cabins
- Winter operations
- Road access
- Event hosting
Buyers should never assume zoning allows growth without checking with the county.
