Does anyone know whether Ocean lakes prohibits concealed carry.
I have my sccwp and am planning a trip there next month and was curious?
Thanks
 

They state; No fireworks or firearms are allowed in the campground. This is only holds true if they have proper signage on the property. If the signs are not properly displayed it means nothing. Maybe someone at MB can chime in on the status of signs there.

It was my understanding that signs can only prohibit from carrying inside a building, not on grounds. Correct me if I'm wrong. From Myrtle, but haven't been to Ocean Lakes since I began carrying so I never paid attention.

Oh and if you are leasing a plot for a camper you hold the leased fee interest. Which basically is a legal contract. Now, if you get made the cops may still give you a hard time and you may be asked to leave by Ocean Lakes, but in court I don't know if they would have any grounds.

Wrong about only in a building. The signs can be posted at the entrance to parking lots etc. and apply to all grounds. If you notice in the laws there are two differnt sizes of signs. One is primarly for buildings and the other for entrances to parking lots.

Your point about the camping space probably is correct. You could take the gun in the campground and have it in your camp space but not go out of it. That would be my first thought on it since the laws very specifically talk about "motels" where you have paid an accomodations fee. You would hold the rights to the campground site but they would control eveything else such as the bathhouses.

BTW - Try Lakewood, my cousins own that one. :biggrin:

I live in Myrtle Beach and looked up the SC law regarding signage for concealed weapons on a property. You can also go to the following web site Link Removed and click on the concealed weapons permit area ad get the entire SC laws.
