-Please enjoy yourself and have a great time! However, please do remember that voices echo through the mountains especially on the lake. Due to the natural topography of Lake Blue Ridge and the mountains surrounding it, please know that voices carry and echo across the lake. Since the lake is in the bowl of the mountains the sound waves reflect and you might be surprised who can hear your conversations or what conversations of others you may can hear. Please just be courteous of others and don’t scream or yell or talk in loud voices especially late at night. The neighbors all around you are wonderful people and they all live here full time. They will be very courteous and respectful to you I promise, so please make sure and show them the same courtesy.

-No smoking is permitted inside the house. This includes cigarettes, ecigarettes, cigars, vapes, etc. This is strictly enforced.

-The tap water is safe to drink. It is public water.

-Please do not flush anything but toilet paper down the toilet. The property is on a septic tank and it could stop up the system. Please put any sanitary items in a trash can.

-Recreation Room/Basement: The recreation room in the basement is accessed from outside the house under the front porch (opposite driveway side). To open the garage door, push the very top panel in a little, then you can turn the handle and pull the garage door up. It is old and temperamental sometimes so be patient please. Sometimes you may need to barely put your weight against it and push it as you open to get to open smoothly. The light switch is up to the left as you enter recreation room. The ping pong table is located in the recreation room, floats for the lake as well as extra ping pong supplies and extra supplies for the dart board located in the open area outside the recreation room.

-To turn on the cool fiber optic lights OUTSIDE at the downstairs game level, use the remote control that is attached to the post where the switch and outlet are located. Again, please turn off after use and do not leave on all night. To turn on the three black sconce lights on the posts, open the gray switch box and flip the switch. Please do not remove the remote controls from the wall as they are permanently attached and the remotes operate perfect from their location. Please follow all instructions posted!
-To turn on the fiber optic lights INSIDE the downstairs game level, follow these instructions:
There are two different sets of lights one on each side of the room. Please do not plug or unplug either set from any location other than below in these instructions: On the black workbench shelf which is on the left side as you enter the game room there is a multiplug surge protector. Plug in the brown cord and the black w/ orange plug in part into the surge protector outlets. The set on the left side of the room does change colors and the side on the right side of the room does not. Use the remote control labeled “Game Room” to change the colors on the set that has that capability.
-A first aid kit is located in the shelves in the bathroom hallway that connects to the master bedroom.

-There are floats in the basement level outdoor space as well as on the boat dock. Life jackets are also hanging on the boat dock. The kayaks and canoes are available in their respective holders. You’re more than welcome to use any of it, however, please take care of them and treat them like your own. You will be responsible for damaging or destroying them, however, so please make sure you are familiar with and know how to use. Please return everything to its original position when you are done using it.

-There are 2 fire extinguishers – one is in the laundry room hanging by washer/dryer and the other one is in the bathroom hallways area on top shelf.
