🔥 Outdoor Fire Pit Safety Guidelines

We want you to enjoy the fire pit and the beautiful lake views safely. Please take a quick moment to review these important guidelines before using it. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION!

Reminder – Quiet Hours

  • Please, no fires, loud voices, or noises after 10 pm. Sound carries over the water. Please be respectful of our neighbors.

Before You Start

  • Check local conditions: Avoid using the fire pit on windy days or during burn bans. Sites like N.C. Forest Service – Wildfire Situation Report | NC Agriculture can give updates on NC fire bans.
  • Clear the area: Make sure there are no leaves, sticks, or flammable materials within 10 feet of the fire pit.
  • Use only approved materials: Burn clean, dry firewood only. No trash, plastics, cardboard, treated lumber, or accelerants (gasoline, lighter fluid, etc.).

During Use

  • Never leave the fire unattended—even for a few minutes.
  • Keep children at a safe distance.
  • Mind flying embers: Keep chairs a safe distance from the flames.
  • Keep water nearby: A bucket of water should always be accessible.

Extinguishing the Fire When you are Done.

  • Let the fire burn down naturally as much as possible.
  • Spread the ashes with a poker or stick.
  • Douse thoroughly with water until all hissing stops.
  • Stir the ashes to confirm everything is completely out.
  • Never leave until the pit is cold.

Additional Notes

  • Please don’t move the fire pit from its designated location.
  • Avoid burning large logs that hang over the sides.
  • Be mindful of neighbors and keep noise to a minimum after quiet hours.
  • If winds pick up unexpectedly, extinguish the fire promptly.
  • If you ever feel unsure or conditions don’t feel safe, don’t start a fire.

Firewood

  • Firewood is located in the parking area.

Lighters and Starters

  • Fire starters and lighters are located in the left side pantry. Please return these to the same location when you check out.
