It also gives us peace of mind knowing that you are enjoying your stay, are safe and respecting yourself, our cottage and the environment.brbrPlease be careful when you are bringing luggage in. We hate painting. Therefore we have to hire someone to fix any repairs to the walls and it's not included in the budget so please be careful.brbrFire extinguishers are located in the Pantry in the kitchen and beside the wood stove in the family room.brbrFuse Panel is located on the main floor corner bedroom.brbrWe allow for 5 cars maximum for parking. PLEASE turn parking lot lights OFF at night.brbrPlease do not take any beverages other than water into the downstairs area. Accidents happen and we don't want to have to replace the carpet at your cost.brbrGarbage….There is wildlife here that you may or may not have the pleasure of experiencing. There are, moose, deer, raccoons, fox, squirrels and other trash eating creatures. We ask that you don't feed them. They will not come around the house providing you have not leave garbage anywhere in the exterior of the building. They don't want to see you as much as you don't want them to visit. Trust us. You would be very surprised at how much of a mess a small red squirrel can do to a small bag of trash. Garbage and Recycling containers located in the pantry when bag is full place full bags of garbage and recycling in the Garbage Storage box by the parking area. Or you can take it to the dump if you're visiting Port Carling. It is on Eveleigh rd in Port Carling off of hwy 118. Only 20 mins. from here. With that being said, we ask that you take your trash and recycling with you when you leave as we do not have garbage or recycling pick up here.

Please avoid excessive use of water. Do not flush anything down the toilet other than toilet paper. Do not flush feminine products, baby wipes or foods.

A fire can be started very easily and although we do provide fire extinguishers, we would prefer (and so would you) that you not need to use them. Do not pour grease into the sink (example: cooking bacon absorb the bacon grease with paper towels and throw into garbage when cooled). Simple as that.
