Other Items to Mention

1. There is a variety of wildlife that you may see on the property. Under no circumstance is feeding wildlife permitted. Feeding wildlife is harmful to the animals so we ask you respect them.

4. Plastic glasses are not dishwasher safe.

5. Glass on the public beach (beach around the corner to the left)….we have been told the story of a bootlegger who lived on the adjacent property on this road. The glass on the public beach is a result of bottles being thrown on the beach. The glass is very old, and resurfaces after every tide but hasn’t turned to beach glass as it has been buried for many years and not persistently tumbled to be smooth. We suggest wearing sandshoes and please use caution. We do regularly pick up the broken glass (feel free to assist in the continual cleanup from this individual, gather it and put it in a bucket if you want).
