The hot tub is a spacious 4-person electric tub.  We ask that you shower to rinse off sunscreen/lotion/bug spray before entering.  There is a cover lifter to make taking the cover on and off extra easy but please remember to always put the cover back on immediately after use and always secure the cover clips.  The temperature and jet controls are on the side of the hot tub that the cover goes off to.  It is easier to see the controls once you are in the tub.  We hope you enjoy it!

Pets

The cabin is pet friendly and the property surrounding it is a pet's ultimate playground!  Pets are NOT allowed on the bed.  You can bring a cover from home to cover the couch or use the beach/campfire blankets located in the bedroom bench.  There is a pet bed and pet bowls available upon request.  Because we don't charge extra for pets, we hope that pet owners clean up after their pets.  If we are left with significant extra cleaning (fur on furniture and bedding) or any damages due to pets there will be extra charges.

Water

We are fortunate to have excellent well water here.  The water is filtered and tastes the way water should taste so please don't feel the need to bring bottled water.  

Fire & Heat

Inside the cabin you will find a Cubic Mini woodstove and no, it's not a toy, it's a real woodstove. :) We will make sure there is plenty of wood and fire starters available for those wishing to use it during cooler months.  The cabin also has electric heat. 

There are electric wall heaters in both the living room and bedroom and there is in-floor heating in the bathroom.  There is also a towel warming bar in the bathroom with an on/off switch on the top.  Please remember to turn it off when not in use.

Wood is also provided (under the deck) for outdoor fires provided there is no fire ban in effect.  Small beach fires are also permitted on calm days (provided there is no fire ban in effect).  Wood can be gathered from the beach and there is also plenty of dead wood to be salvaged from the forest, which helps us out!
