3. There are many items that are personal property at the campsite, so do not use them unless John or Sue permits your use.
4. Outdoor fire pit at the 'overlook' (down the driveway) where you may sit and enjoy the view and fire in the summer. Always put the fire out as we do not wish a fire on the property.
