Nauti Tortuga Manual
Directions, getting settled, helpful information:
NOTE- keep an eye on your email as that is where the automated documents and door code will go. If you need anything leading up to your stay, the best way to contact us is by message on the booking platform, followed by email to stay@lazyhretreats.com
Address:121 Ridge Harbor, Rockport Texas 78382. Maps should get you here with no issues, its the green house with the circle drive on the canal side (left) as you come in to the neighborhood.
- Your Door Code is unique to your stay- It is sent to your email within 24 hours of your arrival and will expire at the checkout date and time of your reservation. The door code will work on the main house and the guest house. In instructional video will come with your door code email to show smart lock operation.
- Accessibility and Parking - There is plenty of parking at the house, with room for a boat trailer and approximately 3 vehicles. Make sure you bring wheel chocks for your trailer so you don't bump our storage shed please.
- Please Note: This property is near the water and while we make every effort to ensure bugs are not getting into the house, we ask that you please do not leave food or beverages out on the counters. Best practice is to seal all food items that cannot be put in the fridge in Tupperware containers or sealed Ziploc bags to avoid ants making their way into the house, they will appear overnight. We also offer a mosquito treatment to be done on the entire property before you arrive, this comes at an additional cost, if this sounds like something you are interested please reach out to us via your booking platform as early as possible so we can get it scheduled!
- Kayaks and Paddleboards- When transporting the kayaks and paddleboards to and from the water please do not drag them, they are very heavy and it causes damage to the kayaks and yard. The kayaks and paddle board are only for use on the property do not take them off the property for any reason. Lazy H Retreats will never authorize this request.
- Boat Access and Boat Lift- If you are not familiar and comfortable with a boat lift please use the secondary option of tying it to the dock. The width of the skids for the boat lift are 9'8", 10" post to post. The length of the slip is a little under 30' Note the lift may be unplugged upon arrival. The guest is responsible for appropriate use of the boat lift. If anything seems to not be working correctly please let us know immediately.
