Garbage….There is wildlife here that you may or may not have the pleasure of experiencing. There are, moose, deer, raccoons, fox, squirrels and other trash eating creatures. We ask that you don't feed them. They will not come around the house providing you have not leave garbage anywhere in the exterior of the building. They don't want to see you as much as you don't want them to visit. Trust us. You would be very surprised at how much of a mess a small red squirrel can do to a small bag of trash. Garbage and Recycling containers located in the pantry when bag is full place full bags of garbage and recycling in the Garbage Storage box by the parking area. Or you can take it to the dump if you're visiting Port Carling. It is on Eveleigh rd in Port Carling off of hwy 118. Only 20 mins. from here. With that being said, we ask that you take your trash and recycling with you when you leave as we do not have garbage or recycling pick up here. Basically the rule of thumb is "If you pack it in, then pack it out". If it is left behind there will be an additional fee $50.00 per bag to dispose of it.

Septic….We are on a septic system. Please avoid excessive use of water. Do not flush anything down the toilet other than toilet paper. Do not flush feminine products, baby wipes or foods. If you didn't eat it then don't flush it.

Frying….We have a 6 burner gas stove. Because the fire department is sooooo far away, we request that you do not do any grease/deep frying. A fire can be started very easily and although we do provide fire extinguishers, we would prefer (and so would you) that you not need to use them. Do not pour grease into the sink (example: cooking bacon absorb the bacon grease with paper towels and throw into garbage when cooled). Simple as that. Stay safe, for all of us.

BBQ…Please be sure to turn off the bbq and the gas line under the window. We have a tankless Weber BBQ, When turning the bbq on, light the left side of the grill of the burner first. Please do not leave the bbq unattended.

We also do have a filtration system in place for the other parts of cottage, It has been tested and it is 100% safe. We have always brushed our teeth, cooked, laundered and showered with it.

Fires….Please search online "Muskoka Lakes Fire Rating" to see if there is a fire ban or not during your stay. During the summer months, Please do not use the wood stove in the house. It is not necessary or safe in the summer months. We only use it in the winter for heat. Fire extinguishers are located in the pantry in the kitchen and beside the wood stove. Absolutely NO fireworks. There is a fire pit located outside on a patio down near the water. Typically we have firewood here providing it's available. We may run out periodically however there is wood that can be purchased locally at the Glen Orchard General Store. There are 2 buckets down by the fire pit. Please fill them with water when having a fire in the pit. There is no smoking in the house or on grounds. We don't want a ground, house or forest fire.
