AN ACT CONCERNING LIABILITY FOR INJURIES INHERENT IN CAMPING WHILE AT A PRIVATE CAMPGROUND.

HB 6982 (now Public Act 25-74) limits liability for private campground operators regarding injuries naturally associated with camping activities, such as slips on uneven terrain or encounters with wildlife. The law specifically exempts operators from legal responsibility for injuries that are inherent to the camping experience itself, not caused by negligence. This directly affects private campground owners by reducing their legal exposure for common, unavoidable risks of outdoor recreation. The bill became effective after the governor signed it on June 23, 2025.
