You can either bury at 6 inches or more in the soil or put it somewhere invisible to others. 3- If you are planning to make a campfire remember to also carry enough water to pour it over.
4- Do NOT flush toilet paper because it will get clogged in the pipes.
5- Keep the bathroom door locked after you’re done.
6-If you are close to the entrance or near our property at 10pm or later remember to have noises at a minimum.
7-The main gate is never locked, however it should remain closed especially after 8pm. Please help us on that.
