So here’s how to stay cozy and compliant: • Use the fire pit with the provided grill or mesh cover • Keep a grill top and marshmallows nearby to show it’s for cooking • No bonfire-style flames — small, intentional fires only • Burn dry hardwood only — please no cardboard, tissue paper, wet wood, or trash • Excess smoke disturbs neighbors and creates safety concerns Safety Reminders: • Never overload the fire pit • Extinguish the fire completely before bed • Do not move the fire pit from its spot • Fires are not allowed on the beach • Let us know if you’d like it set up in advance! Please recover the fire pit prior to your checkout and Thanks so much for helping us keep the space safe, respectful, and enjoyable for all. 🔥🌙 🎉 Celebrating Something Special?
