Cottage Guide

  • Heating

    The heat is turned off from June-August as it is generally not needed. However, if you find yourself getting chilly you can turn the dial on the thermostat (located on the wall next to the bunk bed room) to the ‘Comfort Zone’. See breaker panel (located in kitchen cabinet next to fridge) to ensure switch is turned on.

    There are baseboard heaters in the following locations:

    • Living room, behind couch

    • Kitchen, under table

    • Large bathroom, under vanity

    • Bedroom 1

    • Bedroom 2

    Some baseboard heaters have dials to also adjust the heating. Please contact Darryl if you need assistance adjusting the temperature.

    Cooling

    There is no AC at Maplewood Cottage as it is generally not needed. There are fans located in the living room and in each bedroom. In the summer months, it is recommended to keep the windows closed in the afternoons and open in the evenings. There is a dehumidifier in the living room as well.
