Blanchardville RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| McKellar is the specified camping location | Section 314-14A confines camping to McKellar Park Campground in the lower park near the East Branch of the Pecatonica River. Section 314-6E(10) also distinguishes designated campground camping by permit from leaving overnight shelters or camping vehicles in other park areas after closing. |
| Use the correct campsite and road position | The inner circle has individually marked RV/camper sites; tents on those sites must accompany an RV or camper. Tent-only camping is in the grassy area closest to the river on the north side. Section 314-14E directs RVs to one side of the campsite road; occupying its middle or more than half requires payment for both campsites at the posted rate, not an invented automatic total camping ban. |
| Registration and the two-vehicle limit matter | Section 314-14F requires registered, roadworthy RVs and campers. Subsection G limits each campsite to two vehicles. Excess vehicles may use the Village parking lot on Mason Street, while special events can require another Village-provided location. The checker does not verify space availability. |
| A renewal request is not a renewed permit | Renewal is required weekly or daily by written request to the Clerk-Treasurer. The Village President or Park Board Chairperson must render the decision in writing. No written response within 48 hours or before current expiry, whichever comes first, means no renewal. An appeal does not suspend nonrenewal; a separate voiding order has its own twenty-four-hour grace provision. Those document-dependent outcomes remain unknown in the checker. |
Know what this park-specific guide covers
Chapter 314 defines an RV as a motor vehicle with living quarters and a camper as a towed trailer for habitation or occupancy. Camping means staying overnight in a temporary shelter. This guide checks selected Village park and campground restrictions, not private driveway storage or general street parking.
McKellar is the specified camping location
Section 314-14A confines camping to McKellar Park Campground in the lower park near the East Branch of the Pecatonica River. Section 314-6E(10) also distinguishes designated campground camping by permit from leaving overnight shelters or camping vehicles in other park areas after closing.
Use the correct campsite and road position
The inner circle has individually marked RV/camper sites; tents on those sites must accompany an RV or camper. Tent-only camping is in the grassy area closest to the river on the north side. Section 314-14E directs RVs to one side of the campsite road; occupying its middle or more than half requires payment for both campsites at the posted rate, not an invented automatic total camping ban.
Registration and the two-vehicle limit matter
Section 314-14F requires registered, roadworthy RVs and campers. Subsection G limits each campsite to two vehicles. Excess vehicles may use the Village parking lot on Mason Street, while special events can require another Village-provided location. The checker does not verify space availability.
A renewal request is not a renewed permit
Renewal is required weekly or daily by written request to the Clerk-Treasurer. The Village President or Park Board Chairperson must render the decision in writing. No written response within 48 hours or before current expiry, whichever comes first, means no renewal. An appeal does not suspend nonrenewal; a separate voiding order has its own twenty-four-hour grace provision. Those document-dependent outcomes remain unknown in the checker.
Park driving and hours are separate checks
Section 314-13 gives general park hours of 6 a.m. to 11 p.m.; designated camping is separately regulated. Under 314-15 ordinary visitors drive or park motor vehicles only on designated roads, lots or vehicle areas, with a park-personnel exception. Speed may not exceed 15 mph or a lower posted limit. Passing a campsite check does not override signs or other posted park rules.
Do not apply tent-season dates to all RVs
Section 314-14D specifies April 15 through October 15 for tent camping and prior Village Board approval outside that interval. This text does not establish those dates as an RV operating season. Campground availability, utilities, prices and bookings are not supplied or promised here.
Check current amendments and posted park rules
Both currently listed enacted originals were reviewed: RO2026-02 changes the zoning definition of home occupations; RO2026-03 changes recycling rules. Neither rewrites the selected Chapter 314 camping provisions. Section 314-18 also incorporates park rules on file, so the checker cannot establish complete current permission without those applicable rules and a valid permit.
