DISCLAIMER
Guests are not allowed to swim in the river due to oyster beds present at the bottom of the river. The tide changes frequently

We are not located on-site but are available to assist guests 24/7.

Neighboring Oyster Farm:
The property directly next door is an active oyster farm that operates between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, and occasionally on weekends. While activity is generally minimal and respectful, guests may notice light noise or boat movement during operating hours.

Guests are welcome to purchase fresh local oysters from the farm next door — please inquire for additional details on availability and purchase process.
⚠️ Important Waterfront Safety Disclaimer

This property is located directly on the North River waterfront and features a retaining wall along the creek bank. For your safety and enjoyment, please review the following important notes before and during your stay:

Guests are strictly advised not to cross the retaining wall at any time.

During high tide or storms, water may rise up to the retaining wall, but it has never exceeded the fire pit area shown in listing photos.

There is no fence or raised barrier between the property’s edge and the water. Guests are required to closely supervise all children under 18 years old and any pets at all times when outdoors.

Swimming or wading in the water is not permitted. The riverbed contains active oyster beds and sharp shells, which can cause serious injury if stepped on.

Guests should also avoid entering the water by foot or attempting to launch any watercraft from the shoreline.

By booking your stay, guests acknowledge that they understand and agree to follow all waterfront safety guidelines while on the property.

Your safety and comfort are our top priorities — please enjoy the beauty of the river responsibly.

⚠️ Hot Tub Disclaimer

This property features a private outdoor hot tub that uses the FROG® Chemical System, which is designed to help automatically maintain water balance and sanitation. While this system assists in regulating chemical levels, it does not guarantee that the hot tub is perfectly balanced at all times.

Our team inspects and services the hot tub after each guest stay to ensure clean and proper operation. However, because factors such as weather, frequency of use, and guest product residue (lotions, oils, soaps, etc.) can affect the water quality, guests are strongly encouraged to use the provided pH test strips to check chemical levels before entering the hot tub.

If the water appears cloudy, has an unusual odor, or shows imbalanced results on the test strip, guests should avoid using the hot tub and contact the host immediately for assistance.

By choosing to use the hot tub, you acknowledge that it carries inherent risks, including but not limited to slipping, falling, drowning, overheating, dehydration, chemical sensitivities, and health complications related to heat exposure.

You agree that you are solely responsible for your own safety and the safety of all members of your group, including children and any invited guests. The owner/manager does not assume responsibility for injuries, illnesses, accidents, allergic reactions, or other incidents that may occur in or around the hot tub.

Individuals with medical conditions—including pregnancy, heart disease, high/low blood pressure, or those under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medications—should not use the hot tub unless advised by a physician.

By entering or using the hot tub, you voluntarily release and hold harmless the property owner/manager from all liability, including personal injury, illness, damage, or loss related to hot tub use—whether caused by negligence, misuse, acts of nature, or any other factor.
