Smoking & Other Burning Questions

• Duraflame logs will be supplied for the fireplaces. Please do not burn anything else in the fireplaces including paper and wood.

Public Service Power Shutdown & Power Outages
In the event of a planned or unplanned Public Service Power Shutdown (PSPS) or a power outage due to weather or other causes, our services will not be impacted. Our generators will be in service during limited hours to provide water pressure to the accommodations. Emergency boxes including flashlights and lanterns will be left in your room or cottage. Internet service during generator operation will be limited to office area. Our heat sources operate on propane and are unaffected. As PSPS events are out of our control, no refunds or rate adjustments will be given for any used or unused portion of a stay.
