We are on a septic system, so we ask that you not put anything other than toilet paper in the toilets and that you do not pour any grease down the drains. There is a friendly lighthouse cat on the property named Arena Mina. Please do not let Mina into your unit, we need to be able to find her at the end of the day to put her safely away for the night.
