Please ensure all guests in your group are aware of these rules. Entry / Exit the house only through the back door The front door has a 230-year-old lock and can only be locked from the inside. Please use the back door to enter / exit the house. Two keys are provided. One is under the flower pot on the back porch and the other is on the kitchen counter. Do not flush non-bio materials. It will cause a sewage backup! Like all rural properties in Prince Edward County, this property is on a septic system, i.e., the property has its own mini sewage system. Excessive toilet paper and non-bio materials such as feminine hygiene will clog the toilet and inconvenience guests. Please follow the house rules posted in the bathroom. Conserve water Like most rural properties, The Young Estate sources its water from an underground spring well on the property. Drought conditions often prevail in Prince Edward County during the summer months. Water conservation isn’t optional for guests, it is mandatory, to ensure guests have a comfortable stay. We have upgraded the property’s infrastructure to conserve water, including installation of a 2,000-gallon water storage system, high efficiency toilets and showers. Simple steps can help. Do not leave the taps running when doing dishes, avoid long showers and frequent flushing. Leave the place clean Please do not move furniture around. It adds to our cleaning time and costs which are passed on to guests. Please do not leave the place untidy and dirty. Please return the place to the way it was when you checked in. We reserve the right to deduct a cleaning fee of $100 if you leave the place dirty. Garbage and Recycle Disposal Two garbage and recycle bins are available in the kitchens on each floor – in the kitchen and beside the back porch. The Young Estate does not offer garbage disposal during your stay. For extended stays, please drop off your garbage at Sandbanks or at the dump in town (37 Church St). Please do not leave garbage bags beside the garbage bins. It will attract racoons and pests. 891 CR11, Prince Edward County K0K 2T0 | (613) 654-1400 | [email protected] | www.younghouse.ca The Young Estate Living History since 1783 | Prince Edward County Frequently Asked Questions .
