Cottage Policies

Garbage- We ask that all guests depart with their garbage. Household garbage, recyclables and organics can be deposited, free of charge, at the Beiers Road Transfer Station on your way back to Highway 11. Please refer to the Cottage Compendium when you arrive for full details.

Damage — Excessive damage may result in a fee being assessed. Please let us know when damage occurs so we can work to repair or replace these items as quickly as possible. Damage found after departure will be assessed through the deposit structure.

Cleaning — We ask guests to leave the cottage in the same condition it was found. We will, of course, launder the linens, disinfect surfaces, vacuum and replenish supplies, however we ask guests to clean dishes and remove garbage prior to their departure. 

Parking — Please park within the designated space (under the structure). Septic beds and other infrastructure restrict where vehicles may be parked so please only use the designated spaces. 

Noise ByLaw 11:00PM — As with most communities in Ontario, there is a local noise by-law which restricts excessive noise after 11:00PM. We ask guests to keep the noise down after this time to be respectful to our neighbours and to reasonable levels during the day. Remember, sound carries across the lake!

WIFI- Internet is provided at Hemlock Lake House via satellite. Details on how to log in (and passwords) are privded on arrival. The internet is fairly reliable however outages can occur and your patience is requested when the signal is delayed or out for a short period.

One dog is allowed per stay, please ensure you are indicating your dog’s presence when booking. General dog supplies will be provided upon booking when the dog is indicated. Please ensure you are cleaning up after your pet and do not leave them alone in the cabin.
