Fisherman:
Please be careful when cleaning fish to keep the cottage clean and sanitized. Please keep supplies off furniture and carpet. ALL FISH GUTS should be carefully bagged and put in the bins by the driveway to avoid smelling up the garbage inside the cottage. Also, remember to follow the NYS fishing regulations to avoid any penalties!
