Pet Policy

Some visitors enjoy sharing the pleasures of RVing with their dogs, cats or other companion pets. To ensure that all guests have a safe and enjoyable experience, Bluewater Key®️ RV Resort (BWK) has established a Pet Policy.

ASSISTANCE ANIMALS:

BWK recognizes and accepts Service Dogs, Therapy Dogs and Emotional Support Animals pursuant to the laws established in Florida for such animals. 

BEFORE YOU ARRIVE AT BWK:

Pursuant to our Declaration; no farm animals, livestock, or poultry of any kind shall be raised, bred or kept on any Lot, except dogs, cats or other companion pets, and then only on a leash. (All) companion pets shall be subject to the rules and regulations of the Association…”

Some rental lots are “pet friendly” while others are not.  Please review the site descriptions as to their specific requirements, if applicable.

Only two pets are allowed per reservation.

Due to insurance requirements, BWK does not accept some dog breeds; as follows:

THESE ARE:

Bull Mastiff

Chow

Doberman

German Shephard

Pit Bull

Rottweiler

DURING YOUR VISIT:

Good behavior is required.  Dogs of any breed or animals that are hostile or aggressive will be asked to leave BWK, along with their owners.

Bring the leash! Dogs must be kept on leashes no longer than 6 feet when outside their owners’ recreational vehicles. Do not leave a tethered dog unattended at any time.

Remember manners. Constant barking bothers other campers and may be considered a nuisance, which is prohibited.

BWK has a “Dog Park” for your convenience.  Please escort your dog on a leash to the Dog Park for his “chores” and place bagged waste in the proper receptacles provided.  Please do not leave any pet waste on your rental site.

The Common Area behind the Clubhouse adjacent to the canal is NOT a pet walk area.

Pets are NOT allowed in the laundry room, public restrooms, showers, office, clubhouse or inside the fenced pool area.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone whose animal is NOT considered suitable to the serenity and safety of the Resort.

No such companion/pets shall be permitted to have excretions on any Lot, or anywhere else within the Properties except in locations designated.  The Dog Park is one such location.
