House/Island Rules

Print this page. Please acknowledge you've read it at the bottom.

Beach Chairs
Please hose them down before returning them to the garage.

Driving
Do not exceed 35 mph anywhere on the island! You'll get busted.

Fishing equipment
Hose off after use and replace on garage hangers to properly dry. Advise of any damaged or lost gear so I can bring tools or replacements down. Do not use light rods in the surf.

Garage door
Keep closed. Garage is dehumidified. Rust and mildew are evil.

HVAC
When leaving from your stay, set both thermostats to 60 HEAT in autumn/winter and to 78 COOL in spring/summer.

Jeep
Do not drive Jeep on beach as there is a season and a permit is required. When using Jeep to go to the beach, you may place chairs on hood but use a beach towel to protect his paint and bungees to secure them. Do not leave Jeep parked outside the home unless the top is up because of shedding trees. Lightly hose him down after use. I'd appreciate it if you'd also squirt underneath him to wash off  salt. Please fill tank and check oil upon leaving. Gas is 87 unleaded, oil is 10W30. Please secure fishing rods in bumper holders with bungees from one of the storage boxes in the rear. Sometimes when you remove the key, the electrical system does not shut down. You'll hear 3 double tones when it does. If you don't hear that, just move the key receptor and you'll hear the tones shortly thereafter.

Lagoon
1. Do not swim in the lagoon. 2. You may fish. 3. Do not feed alligators (see 1.)

Lighting

Do not turn main entry hallway light off at the fixture! It and the landscaping lights are timed. If you you want to turn on/off either, the computer-controlled switches are labeled in the main entry hall. Normal operation will resume next day.

Master suite
If the fridge is not plugged in, you may do so.

Media Center
Please use our hotspot or connect directly to the router to surf and check email on your own machine. Do not use the media center computer for any other purpose. Do not adjust the Sherwood amplifier volume. It should be around 30. Use the media center Sound Button to adjust overall volume and use the box with the 4 volume controls to adjust or turn music on or off in the 4 controlled areas.

When Leaving
(Family)
replace any consumable products, wash and clean the linens, put clean sheets on the beds and vacuum/clean the house. Put recyclables in blue tray in same location and take to the dumpsters behind west fire station across the street. Map Cross Kiawah Island Parkway and take the 3rd left off Sora Rail Rd.
(All guests) Put trash in can outside against front deck. Put recyclables in blue tray in same location. Unplug and dump any water and ice from master suite fridge if you used it. Make sure  media center computer is on and monitor is off.
