Other Things to Note:
We welcome guests with all kinds of plans—whether you're here to relax, fish, golf, or enjoy a cold drink by the fire while listening to music. Whatever brings you here, we kindly ask that you remain respectful and considerate of other guests during your stay.

If you're bringing a pet, please include them as an additional HUMAN guest on your reservation, as this is how our pet fee is applied. Pets must be leashed at all times to ensure the safety and comfort of everyone, including children, and to help prevent accidents near the water.

Let’s work together to create a welcoming and enjoyable environment where everyone can make lasting memories.

Firewood Reminder
A shared fire pit is available between the units and the lake—please bring your own firewood if you'd like to enjoy it.

Dock Access – 2025 Season
We’re happy to confirm that the docks are currently installed and ready for use. Each group is welcome to tie up one boat at their designated spot on the shared dock.

Dock Removal Notice
Dock installation and removal are based on seasonal weather conditions and service provider availability. Docks are generally available from late spring through early fall and are removed in late fall as ice begins to form. Timing may vary from year to year, and we appreciate your understanding as we prioritize safety and facility care.

Interaction with Guests:
As your host, I live nearby and am readily available if you need anything during your stay. My goal is to strike the perfect balance between being accessible and respecting your privacy.

You may occasionally see me parking my boat at the dock while visiting Ernie’s on Gull Lake, just a few doors down. I may stop by with a quick hello, or you might see me spending time with family who are also staying on the property. I aim to provide a sense of connection—without ever intruding on your space.

Rest assured, I'm here to ensure your stay is comfortable, smooth, and enjoyable. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. Your satisfaction and privacy are always my top priorities.
