golf cart

To the OP, you are speaking of the ADA (American with Disabilities Act). It requires all places that do business with the public (and their employees) to make REASONABLE ACCOMMODATIONS for persons with challenges. So, if you really want to stay at a park that does not seem to care if you are there or not, write a letter to the manager/owner, and calmly indicate that they may be in violation of the ADA if they refuse a reasonable accommodation. As noted by other posters, the manager might claim that a golf cart is not reasonable. Then ask about a mobility scooter or other mobility device. If that is refused, then you might have some grounds to pursue further action if you desire. But, get it in writing. As others have suggested, it might be more trouble than it is worth, compared to moving on to a campground that gladly accepts you. Best wishes.

It is amazing how fast the word sue shows up!I really don't think that is how to deal with this situation if you can sort through these posts there is some very good and logical posts.

Do you have insurance coverage on the golf karts if you hit someone? That was required in a Fla campground we stayed at.

Their campgrounds their rules. Your money your choice.

Find a seasonal site that allows golfcarts.

Instead of a Golf Cart we bought two mobility scooters off of Craigslist. This allows us to go our separate ways or travel together. My DW can't stand in one place for very long so she uses it to go into stores to shop and restaurants. I find it handy to use for car and RV shows instead of walking the events.

Both will break down into 6 pieces which allows them to be carried in a trunk, storage compartment or the back of the pickup and doesn't get in the way of towing the 5th wheel. It only takes a few minutes to take them apart or put them together.

We added removable awnings to them so they look like little golf carts.

Move. I wouldn't want to stay anywhere I wasn't wanted and appreciated.

A golf car is NOT a mobility scooter. It would be discrimination if they said a mobility scooter could not be used.

I am disabled and use a mini-golf cart as a mobility device. (I also have a smaller cart for use in stores, etc.)

As others have mentioned, I would ask the park for an exception, and mark the cart with a disability placard. (Both my carts are marked)

If the park will not go along with that then they could be sued, however it probably is not worth it.

I would find another park. Lord knows there are many, many parks in Florida that would welcome you and your money.

This is what happens when people sue for mistakes they make. Don't blame the campground -- blame the 90% of Americans who would sue because of their stupidity and greed.

Perhaps trade in the cart for a mobility scooter that's intended for the disabled? That would likely be more acceptable to them.
