General housekeeping info:

  • Pool

    • Please keep pool filled to H2O line on skimmer. This will help avoid taxing the pump/filter system.

    • Pump can be turned off at night at the breaker box in the pump room. Please leave the pump running daily to ensure good water circulation.

    • Pool service is on Saturday and Wednesday. Please avoid unattended larger dogs. Although it can be really entertaining to watch the pool guy (Mike King) get surprised, for his safety please contain larger dogs on pool cleaning day. Mike checks the pump room downstairs and cleans the pool out back 2x/week. He has been with us since 2011 and does a great job. As the unofficial mayor of the Outer Banks, he is also a wealth of knowledge for where best to eat on the island if you are looking for suggestions.
