A. General Provisions
1. Any use of a site requires a
written permit or payment receipt. Proof of payment shall be presented to a
department employee upon request.
2. Permittee may not transfer or assign any
use permit nor sublet any facility or part thereof.
3. The site manager has the authority to
require the registration of every person occupying a campsite or overnight
facility.
4. Any permit may be
terminated by the site manager upon the violation of any established rule,
regulation, or any condition of the permit.
5. Pass codes on entrance gates are issued
for the personal use of the permittee, who is prohibited from allowing others
to use the pass code, or otherwise making the facilities open so that others
not covered by the permit may enter or leave the facility or area. Each
campsite will be issued two temporary vehicle mirror hangtags to assist
employees in identifying paid guests. The first vehicle is the RV or truck
pulling the camper. The second vehicle is defined as a vehicle being towed
behind the RV or driven by another occupant who is camping on the same
campsite. Additional vehicles will be allowed by way of a general admission
day-use entrance fee (see §531).
6.
Established time schedules (check-in and checkout) are strictly enforced.
Failure to comply without advanced approval of the site manager may result in
additional charges and denial of any future use of the facility.
7. Overnight users must maintain a reasonably
quiet facility between the hours of 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. No generators are
allowed to be operational between the aforementioned hours.
8. Overnight users shall not erect or display
unsightly or inappropriate structures or features which, in the opinion of the
site manager, may create a disturbing or otherwise unpleasant condition
detrimental to the general site use.
9. No permittee may repair or install any
site equipment or furnishings unless authorized and supervised by the site
manager.
10. No person shall be
permitted to reside at Indian Creek Recreation Area without written approval of
the commissioner.
11. Parking for
boat trailers and additional vehicles may be allowed at the discretion of the
site manager or his designee, subject to individual site suitability for such
purposes.
12. Permittees waive and
release all claims against the state of Louisiana for any damage to person or
property arising from the privileges granted by any use permit.

and campsites reserved at the 30-day off-season rate, overnight camping is
limited to 14 consecutive days. After 14 consecutive days of occupancy at a
site, the visitor must vacate the site for 7 consecutive days before occupancy
may be resumed.
2. During winter
rental (November 1-February 28), a camper may occupy a site for 30 or more days
at a time, subject to availability. No campsite may be unattended for longer
than a 48-hour continuous period under any permit agreement.

persons. At designated group camping areas occupancy limits are set by the site
manager or his designee.
5. The
following are to be used as general guidelines to define a camping unit by the
site manager or his designee:
a. one camper
with additional vehicle and one large tent or two small tents;
b. two vehicles and tent combinations not to
exceed three tents.
