In an effort to ensure the enjoyment and safety of all our guests, we ask that you and the occupants of your cottage observe these few rules: Please...

• No smoking inside the cottages.
• Follow the Four Seasons and Adirondack trash and recycling rules.  If you need a copy let us know. Remember, bears love food and garbage and are pretty good at finding it.  I would not recommend putting it under your bed.  
• Conserve energy - water, lights and heat. When our bills increase, so do our rates. Electricity rates in the mountains are very high.  
• Park only two vehicles per cottage  in the lower parking lot.  Park all other vehicles as well as any trailers in the upper lot.  Do not park in front of the dumpster, or we will be up to our ears in garbage.
• Children are welcome to enjoy the playground and play house. Beach toys are available at the waterfront for their use.  Please ensure that they are picked up when not in use.  The wind blows them in the water and the current carries them to Inlet. 
• Drive cautiously, the road down to the camps is very steep and can dangerous if you are going too fast.  Only four wheel drive are allowed down the hill in the winter.
• Be considerate of others, people came here to relax and enjoy the mountains. Quiet hours are from 10 p.m. until 8 a.m. If I have complaints, and they are justified, you will not be invited back.
• No pets!
• Do not exceed the maximum number of people in any cottage at any time. (see Cottage Amenities details for maximum number of people per cottage which is based on state regulations)   Infants are people too.
• No long distance calls on cottage phones unless pre-arranged by us.  Cell phones work well by the beach, AT&T and Verizon.
•  Do not collect firewood on the premise or in the State Park Land across Route 28.  Collecting firewood is prohibited by law on State Land.  Firewood is available on the east side of the complex by the green shed or at nearby retail establishments.  Ensure that all fires are completely extinguished when you retire.  If you bring  firewood,  burn it all or give it to me:  DEC has issued a warning concerning transporting firewood.  The following is a quotation from their website: 

"One common way many of these insect pests are moved around the country - beyond their natural rate of spread based on biology and flight potential - is on firewood carried by campers, hunter and other users of our forests. This firewood may come from trees killed by insect pests and taken down wherever the visitors came from. The users are frequently not even aware they are moving eggs or larvae of these pests, which may be hidden on or under the bark or buried deep within the logs. A casual observation of boaters and campers checking in at any campground will reveal trunk loads or boatloads of firewood being brought in, often from far distant states.

Once transported to new locations, eggs may hatch, or larvae may mature and emerge to attack host trees in and around the camping areas. Too often, these new infestations are not detected until numerous trees start to die, and the infestation has spread beyond our ability to eradicate it or control it effectively."

• Leave the cottages neat and clean. If you need additional cleaning supplies, please let us know. Please put any items you moved back in their original location. Actually, our guests so a fantastic job of leaving our cottages clean.  Our guests have a whole lot of pride. 

Thanks for you cooperation, we want everyone to have the best vacation possible.
