- people: ensure all guests are accounted for within your reservation - maximum permitted is 6 people and 2 dogs We DO NOT allow anyone who is not accounted for in the reservation onto the property, even if they do not plan to stay the night.

- septic/plumbing: *this cabin is on a septic system* bathroom - flush only toilet paper Do not flush hygiene products, wipes (even if flushable), paper towels, or tissue, as this will cause a blockage and render all plumbing useless. ***Kitchen - Only liquids can go down the kitchen sink drain. Cooking oils, grease, fats, food debris, and coffee grounds must go into the trash. Use paper towels (provided) to absorb and wipe items clear. *** Drain screens - There are drain screens in the kitchen and bathrooms to prevent hair, food, and other items from going down the drains; these must be used at all times.***
- hot tub: the hot tub is emptied between every reservation, therefore the water may not be hot upon your arrival The hot tub can reach temperatures up to 104°F. It will lose about 5°F per hour when the lid is off; weather conditions and use of the jets may expedite this cooling.

- futon: the futon is designed for convenience over comfort If you are sensitive to mattresses, one of the traditional beds is recommended.

Place all cold ashes in the metal bucket provided; do not dump outside. Do not use the air conditioning and fireplace at the same time. (Not permitted for use May through August).
