What about fishing in the lakes, swimming and canoeing or kayaking?

    Yes, but please be careful.

Smoking is not allowed on the property.  The fire risk is very high in this area so other than in designated areas, fires and cooking out are not allowed.  Please note that local fire towers look for smoke and the DNR is quick to pounce on violators...and they can be quite unpleasant including fines.

How are ESCAPE units heated and cooled?

Heat comes from an LP furnace, split system and/or a fireplace.   A/C comes from a high efficiency split system or roof system. 

 

What about maintenance of my ESCAPE unit?

Other than routine items, your new ESCAPE has little or no maintenance.  The unit is designed to be easy on you. We do recommend re-coating the unit with our stain every 3-5 years but this is strictly optional and dependent on your location.
