Climate — Mr. Cool
3 ceiling units: living room + both bedrooms. Each has its own remote.
1
Set all 3 units to the same mode — COOL, HEAT, or AUTO. Mixed modes = they fight each other and nothing works right.
2
Once modes match, each room can be a different temperature — set your preferred temp on each remote individually.
3
Point the remote at the ceiling unit and press power. A green light on the unit confirms it received the signal.
Can't find a remote? Check side tables, nightstands, and the kitchen counter.
Canoe, Kayak & Outdoor Gear
Shed locationBehind the bunk house
Shed keyAbove the microwave in the main kitchen
In the shedCanoe paddles, kayak paddles, fishing poles, life jackets, tubes
Rinse gear before returning it and put everything back. Life jackets required for children on the water.
Coffee Maker
The Ninja coffee maker is stocked and ready. Two ways to use it:
A
Bring pods — the Ninja accepts standard coffee pods. Just pop one in and brew.
B
Bring beans — a grinder is available. Grind your beans, then swap the insert inside the machine. The brew basket insert is stored in the hidden compartment on the right side of the coffee maker — pull the panel open and it's right there.
Either way works great — just make sure you're using the right insert for your method before brewing.
