Please make sure all outside lights are off before turning in for the night.
PARKING – County regulations prohibit parking on the street, in part so that snowplows have access. Please park in the garage, the driveway or obvious parking areas on the property
PLPOA Rules: NOISE – There is a strict noise ordinance in PLPOA. No parties, events or loud noises are allowed on the property.

When you buy your permit you’ll be given a pamphlet with fishing regulations or if you want to see the fishing regulations now go to the PLPOA website.
