Requests & Helps:
* Wood stove Safety:
Inform kids that the wood stove is hot & keep an eye on them.
Cool hot ashes in one of the metal pots on the hearth. Keep pots on the hearth.
A hot pot will melt the carpet.
Dispose of cool ashes in the outside garbage can, not on the dirt.
Do not chop kindling on the hearth. It will crack. More kindling in laundry room.
Chop wood, if necessary, outside the downstairs back door.
More wood outside the 1st floor back door.
See note on top of hearth for wood stove pointers.
* Loft Safety: no rough play. Be careful of the stair hole & railings.
* Electricity Conservation: If you're not using the downstairs, or even if you'll be gone for the day, turn the breakers off to these heaters: “Dorm Heaters”, “Bedroom Heaters” & “Hall Heaters”. The breaker box is located on the dorm room wall by the front door. This helps us to keep our expenses & rents down. Electric heat is very expensive.
* Plumbing Emergencies: call owners &/or Charlie Howtz 426-3307.
When Vacating the Cabin to Return Home:
1. Clean it so that you leave it like you found it. Vacuum, clean sinks & counters,bathrooms, floors, etc.
2. Turn off room heaters at the breaker box located on the inside dorm door wall.
3. Empty all waste baskets &, if you are leaving Sun., put the trash can out by the road. Collection time is early Monday morning.
4. Replace all floatation devices and paddles into laundry room. Lock canoe up to tree.
5. Leave keys on top of upstairs bathroom mirror or mail them back to us.
6. Turn off lights and appliances. Close & lock windows & doors. Tug on the doors to make sure they are locked (they stick as the snow-load shifts the house).
