Lake Georgia-Sue Property Policies and Rules

The following rules and policies cover all activities taking place at Lake Georgia-Sue, whether visiting the gardens, camping, boarding horses, or enjoying the property as part of a community event. Most people adhere to the rules very well. For those who adhere to the rules, we promise that we will take immediate action against those who don't.

General: Tenants and guests are responsible for any damage or injury caused by themselves their children or their pets. The tenant assumes any and all risks associated with their visit and agrees to hold the landlord harmless from and indemnify the landlord against the same. We are not responsible for personal injuries or damage, loss or theft of any personal property, or vehicles. We reserve the right to evict any person or persons who do not comply with the rules and policies. We reserve the right to refuse access to anyone. We cannot control nature, and so refunds are not issued on the basis of weather or other uncomfortable circumstances.

1. First and foremost is a family atmosphere. Heavy drinking, loud behavior, disturbing your neighbors, or not keeping your pets under control are all examples of non-family behavior.

2. This is a place to relax, unwind, and restore. Please take some deep breaths and leave your stress behind. We don't want you infecting others! Refocus on the water, the stars, the sunset, and the snapping of your campfire.

3. Pets are welcome, but are to remain on a short leash/ tie out at all times, if your pet is found running around and chasing our animals, bothering other dogs, or bothering other campers, you will be asked to leave and will not be refunded for your stay. We take this very seriously for the safety of others and our animals. Excessive barking is not tolerated. It will result in you being asked to leave. Due to Insurance requirements, all pets are to be up to date on their vaccinations. Pets are not allowed in the clubhouse.
