- No personal appliances such as blow dryers, rice cookers, deep fryers, coffee grinders
- Laptops OK
- Bird Point is the pick up spot for Air/Sea Rescue for Storm Bay and Doriston so quick access to medical facilities in case of emergency
- Please keep all food and toiletry items (even toothpaste) in the Hub Building for those staying in the oceanside tents. Animals and birds at Bird Point do not bother food because they have not been habituated to it. Help care for our wildlife by not leaving items in tents that will attract them.
- Trails from the Hub to the tent sites are easily walkable in open sandals. Trails leading away from the tents into the forest or beach areas are moderate to challenging, so bring appropriate hiking footwear.
- The Retreat can accommodate up to 30 guests at one time, and we try wherever possible to book groups in individually for a private experience.
