Any comforts of home that you like to have around.
 
Groceries, extra trash bags, tin foil/zip lock bags.  Extra toilet paper there is always enough for a few days we leave.
 
If you intend to use our fire pit which is of course at your own risk you will need to bring wood or it can be purchased around town pretty easily.  Please do not leave fire unarttended.
 
We are on the water and have a dock.  Please exercise caution and always supervise children.  You can bring your own boat or kayak and so forth or rent one walking distance for the house at places like Rivets.  You MUST bring or rent your own safety gear such as a life jacket and so forth.  All water activities are at your own risk and we do not provide any supervision for these activities.
