Snowy Season: ALL snow removal is the responsibility of the guest. We do not have the means to take care of snow, ice, or any other product of weather. Lake Michigan can produce A LOT or a little bit of snow and ice at any time (Lake Effect). Some times weather is predicted and sometimes it comes out of no where. What I’m saying is…it’s completely unpredictable. All guests need to be aware that you will need to be able to fend for yourselves! Sidewalks, stairs, porches, and driveways can get very slippery when icy.
**THERE IS NO SMOKING OF ANY KIND INSIDE THE HOME OR PORCHES. Thank you!
