Supplies:
Each bathroom will have a roll of toilet paper in it to get you started. We also supply a roll of paper towel. If more is needed during your stay you will have to run to the store.

Grill:
We do have a grill on site to use. In the event the tank wasn't completely filled up or was emptied by the previous guest, just refill the current tank or grab a new one and send us a copy of the receipt to be reimbursed for the cost.

Pickle ball court:
This court is 20'x40' with a playing area of 16x36. We have paddles and balls on site. Because we are in a residential area to help keep the noise levels down we ask guests to use the pickle balls we provide. This will help keep the noise levels down while playing. When your not using the pickle ball court please keep the pickle ball paddles inside out of the rain/humidity. Lost or damaged pickle balls will result in a $10 charge per ball. Lost or damaged basketballs will result in a $20 charge per ball.

Pool:
The pool can be heated. If you wish to have the heater on during your stay there is a $50 charge per day. Let us know at least 2 days before your check in if you want it heated. The electric pool heater might not be able to maintain a desired temperature if the outdoor temperature during your stay is less than 65 degrees.
The pool is serviced once a week in the winter months and twice week from spring break to end of October. Please don't be alarmed if the pool crew enters the backyard during your stay.

**Backyard**
Tickled Turtle brings together an amazing experience for friends and family. The nature and trees in the area are beautiful. From time to time mother nature moves those trees around and as a result leaves and pine needles tend to fall on the turf in the backyard. Our lawn maintenance crew will blow them off a few times a month, however they might not show during your stay. We have provided a leaf blower, located in the kitchen that you are free to use to clear off the backyard and mini golf turf.
