2. Limited septic tank capacity requires us to ask you to keep your showers short.
3. Pets. Please speak with us before bringing pets of your own. We have 6 dogs. They will probably come and visit and beg for food. Please don’t feed Sumo. He is partially blind and may mistake your finger for a hot dog!
