Santa Cruz RULES AND REGULATIONS SPECIFIC TO THE RESERVED AREA OF Big Basin State Park
Big Basin Redwoods SP is one of the most popular locations for wedding. The park, however, is open to other types of special events which require Special Event Permit. Wedding ceremonies and receptions can be held at various locations throughout the park. Some of the popular areas include: the Campfire Center (will seat up to 400 persons), Sky Meadow and Sequoia Group Camp. If you wish to use Sequoia or Sky Meadow Group Camps, confirmed reservation from Reserve America (1-800-444-7275) is required in addition to the Special Event Permit. If you have a special unique location idea, please discuss your ideas with the Special Events Coordinator for more details and information on specific regulations. Because of the potential damage to resources caused by large groups and the effect of the recreational experience of other park visitors, certain limitations are necessary.
Light acoustic music is permitted; amplification systems, disc jockeys, etc. are not permitted. Organized games like volleyball, horseshoes, baseball, football, Frisbee or badminton are not allowed due to the potential resource impact. All park rules and regulations apply. Your cooperation in observing peace and quiet hours is appreciated.
An electrical outlet may be available for use at the campfire center. There is no electricity provided at The Sequoia and Sky Meadow group camps. Prior arrangements for electrical outlet use must be written into the special event permit. Decorations may be used in the immediate area. Staples, nails or wire may not be used to attach items to trees. Please make sure they are easily removable and do not leave a trace. All decorations must be removed before your group leaves the park.
Rice, birdseed, confetti, balloons and the like are not allowed to be thrown in the park. These items are non-native and can affect the plants and wildlife in the park. All trash must be deposited into receptacles provided in the park. If your group needs additional trashcans, advance notice must be made in written request.
If your group requires additional restroom facilities, you may rent or arrange for portable restrooms for an outside vendor but be advised that park does not have the equipment to pump chemical toilets on a regular basis.
All vehicles entering the park must pay day-use entry fee (can be taken care of in advance by the permittee). Distribution/passing of directional handouts to your guests may be coordinated through Park Staff but copies must be made at your own expense.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW RULES & REGULATIONS WILL RESULT IN FORFEITURE OF SECURITY DEPOSIT
Thank you for your cooperation and hope you enjoy your Special Event !
