Cottage Notes
Gouldsboro Clinic: (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) walk in care 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. weekdays. Maine Coast Memorial Hospital: (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) hr. emergency care, 7 days. Fire, Ambulance Notes
Ambulance, Police: 911 emergencies only.
We leave some basic supplies in the Cottage; T.P, soap, shampoo, garbage bags, coffee filters, and roll of paper towels. The kitchen almost always has a selection of spices available; salt and pepper for sure and a variety of other things. We do not supply any breakfast items but feel free to use anything in the fridge or cupboards. The kitchen is small but complete, including gas range, microwave, coffee maker, etc., as well as pots pans, dishes and utensils. Also, a gas grill outside. We supply all linens and towels. There is a washer and a dryer.
Use caution while opening and closing sash windows. They are heavy and fall down quickly. Use the brass fastener or the stick to keep them open.
If you need to have the high up window opened or closed, Suzanne will be glad to come over and do it. Do not try to open or close it yourself.
We will keep you supplied with firewood and kindling for indoor fires. If you need more, don’t hesitate to let us know. If you need help with the woodstove, let us know.
Outside fire pit fires are sometimes permitted depending on fire danger, but must be discussed with me. It is not safe to remove partially burned wood or coals from fire pit, but fires should be doused in the pit at the end of the evening
Garbage goes outside in the garbage and returnables hutch. Place it in cans. Returnable beverage containers with deposits go in plastic boxes in the front facing part of the hutch. Do not put your ashes in the garbage as it could start a fire.
Please do not leave the electric heaters on, in the summer months, when you are out. Please be careful with the fire place fires. Ask for help if you need it. There is no need to clean out the stove. Do not remove wood or coals from the stove for any reason. It is not safe to do so.
For a quick injection of heat you can turn on the oven (use the overhead fan to keep heat downstairs). Please remember to turn the oven off before you leave.
You can pick berries in the field and along the paths. Feel free to walk past the other cottages on the fileldroad and mowed paths. There is a walking path that eventually leads to some woods trails. Always check yourself and your children for ticks when you return.
If you notice that the plants are droopy please water them. I will leave a couple full watering cans.
There is no need to lock the door when you leave for good. In fact it is easier for us if you don’t.
Fill out a comment sheet before you leave. Let us know if you need anything. Have a great time!
