We provide a starting supply of paper towel,(1) coffee pods (4), toilet paper in each bathroom(3), hand soap, dish pods, and garbage bags. In our welcome basket we put fire starters, shampoo and body wash.

Please note that under cooking essentials, we do not provide oil. We have salt & pepper, there are an assortment of spices, and of course full cooking and baking equipment. This is a check box in the platform and does not give an option to separate out specific items.

The dock and water toys are put into storage for the winter months from middle of October depending on the temperature until middle of May depending on the temperature and if ice is out of the lake.

When the lake freezes there are no guarantees and at all times please practice ice safety.

The hot tub water will sometimes appear green as the high levels of iron in the well water combined with the chlorine change the colour. The water is clean and fully balanced just the colour is not ideal.

The bunk beds are not suitable for adults and only children should be using them.

Docks and water toys are out for the season. please note that the docks and water toys have not been put in for the 2026 season yet due to higher than normal water levels. If you are reading this message, then the docks and water toys have still not been put in.
