Guest of Guests – We are often asked if one or two friends can join our registered guests on the deck to share the experience, the view, a drink or a picnic and we are happy to oblige. But, we do request a courtesy donation – suggested $25 per person for those additional guests. More than 4 additional guests constitute a Celebration event – please see below.
The Most Important Subject – Toilets – We have two different style marine toilets – the buttons and directions are on the wall. Please Read – one needs you to add water to flush – the other just fills and flushes on it’s own. Note – these toilets can easily flush normal amounts of tp. but if you throw in a wad or toss in anything else apple slices, packaging, matches… they will clog . So – just bodily waste and tp. Thanks
