Whippoorwill Farms SC Agritourism Campground Rules & Regulations

Whippoorwill Farms SC (referred to as WWFSC) is a WORKING FARM which means, the farm’s purpose is to grow and raise products which feed the local community.  There are many aspects to the farm that make it inherently dangerous and as a guest you are acknowledging that an agritourism professional is not liable for an injury to or the death of a participant resulting from an inherent risk of an agritourism activity, and no participant or participant’s representative may make a claim against, maintain an action against, or recover from an agritourism professional for injury, loss, damage, or death of the participant resulting from an inherent risk of an agritourism activity.  This includes all members of your visiting party, including any incidents with your pet that could occur.

Whippoorwill Farms SC uses working dogs in their operation and are considered “LIVESTOCK” on our farm.  You will encounter them during your stay.  They may be herding other livestock that get out, chasing off birds of prey or simply marking their territory for predators.  Working dogs stay out all night long.  You may at times hear them barking and warding off predators.
