A FEW EXPECTATIONS & REQUESTS ...

For those of you who have been here before, you know we're not one of those resorts with 100s of rules and regulations. If you've never stayed with us before, we know you will be thrilled with your choice! We want you to have a wonderful holiday. In return, we expect that you will treat our property and home with the same care and attention you would your own. It boils down to common courtesy and common sense; we trust that all our visitors have both so we don't need to talk about obvious things like garbage, putting non-septic-friendly stuff down the toilets, leaving disgusting messes in the bathrooms, etc.

However, a few things do need a mention:

SPEEDING
The speed limit while driving in the resort is 10 kilometres per hour - and yes, this applies to permanents & house guests! To date, we have not installed speed bumps because we want your children to be able to ride and run freely. No doubt you think 10 kilometres per hour is S-L-O-W but you won't if it happens to be your child who narrowly misses being hit by a speeding driver. The speed limit is strictly enforced -- "3 Strikes and You're OUT".

MOTORIZED VEHICLES IN THE SWIMMING AREAS
Banbury has several swimming areas and rafts. When it comes to using your boat or SeaDoo, please use that common sense that we've talked about and do NOT speed through the water in between a raft and the shore. Proceed slowly - AT A CRAWL - out of the swimming area and then feel free to 'put the pedal to the metal'. This may seem like an inconvenience but we're pretty sure you wouldn't find it so if it were your family that was run over by some thoughtless fool racing through the swimming zone.

PARTYING
Banbury is not a party campground; 11:00pm is quiet time. Please respect those around you as they too want a good night's sleep. If you're coming with teenagers, please ensure that they are back on your site by 11:00pm.

PARKING
One car per site please; we hope you're coming here to enjoy beautiful Banbury ... not look at your all your cars! There is ample additional parking within walking distance to your site. Please don't park on the common lawn areas or drive over our hoses/sprinklers. If we came to your home to visit, would you want us to park on your lawn? Didn't think so.

PETS
Your pets are welcome but they must be leashed and with you, or at your site, at all times. Please 'scoop the poop' as no doubt you don't want to step in it any more than we do!

PICNIC TABLES
There is one picnic table on every site. We don't have enough tables to make exceptions -- and, no, you were not "told by someone that you could have two". When you take a table off a site, you inconvenience your neighbours and us. Please don't.

CANCELLATION OF YOUR BOOKING
The daily rate per site is based on a family i.e. 2 adults and 2 children, 16 years and under, if applicable. Additional adults or children are charged at $5.00 per person per night. Management reserves the right to restrict the number of people, tents or RVs on any given site. All reservations must be guaranteed with a credit card. To cancel your reservation, you must call us 1 WEEK PRIOR to your arrival to avoid a cancellation charge. Please note, this also includes 'permanent' bookings.

HOOKING UP TO THE SEWER
Many of our sites have sewer hookups. When you arrive and connect your hose to the sewer, please pay extra attention to the fact that your hose only needs to go down about 6 inches. The line should have a coupling on it that ensures you can't put too much hose into the sewer, however, if the coupling is missing or has been moved and you put that hose down past where it was, YOU will cause an obstruction for the entire line and the sewer will come "bubblin' up" like the Beverly Hillbillies crude oil! If it happens once, we understand - we all make mistakes. If we have to ask you a second time to pull your hose up, you'll be paying the bill to repair the line and anything else that gets damaged. If you're not sure about how to set up your line, just ask and we'll be there in a jiffy to give you a hand.

We appreciate your attention to the above and look forward to seeing you soon!
