The Howell’s - Doug, Dee, Brett
and Dara
welcome you to Pow-Wow Point Lodge!
We at Pow Wow are excited about 2010. With many returning staff and some changes we know that you will all be well cared for. In the kitchen Leanne will be taking the helm and working hard to provide the Home-style Dining that Pow Wow offers. Gabrielle will be attending to Recreation aspects at Pow Wow and working hard to fill the shoes of those before her. Although she has not been at Pow Wow for a couple of years many will remember her from the dining room. Dara, Luke and Ben are returning to the dining room. Jane, Terri and Carol in Housekeeping, and who knows maybe Jerry will reappear in property maintenance???
Housekeeping will endeavor to
keep all the rooms in first class condition. However, unless
one lives in a room or uses the facilities, it is difficult
to be aware of any shortcomings, so we would ask you to advise
us of any concerns.
Blue recycling boxes are located in each
room, please help us recycle. Also, tin pails for disposal
of cigarette butts are located outside all rooms and at the
beachfront. We would appreciate your help in maintaining our
pleasant grounds. The pop machine is now located downstairs
in the recreation room . Candy is available at the front desk.
An ice machine is conveniently located on the lower level
of the Pine Bough building and in the main hallway of Beech.
Also, a gift and convenience shop is located in the main lodge,
please enter off the lounge. A public pay telephone is located
inside the front entrance to the lodge.
Tipping is something we are often asked about.
Pow-Wow has a 6% service charge that is shared by all the
staff who have helped make your stay enjoyable. If you feel
a staff member has provided an “Incredible Experience”
and would like to acknowledge this extra service, it could
be appreciated by the staff member and should be given directly
to him or her.
