RULES AND HELPFUL HINTS

The Camp Tosebo Trunk House is a privately owned and fully furnished house in the woods. Many of the furnishings and decorations have historical value and have been part of Camp Tosebo since its inception as the Todd Seminary for Boys. Please be respectful of the many artifacts throughout the Trunk House and treat them with care so they can be appreciated for many generations to come.

Visitors
The Trunk House will accommodate 2-3 people comfortably. Families and groups may invite guests to visit while staying at the house but we request extra guests find other sleeping accommodations. As an option, other camp property may be available for rental. No camping please.

Showering
Make certain to close the curtain when showering and avoid excess water on the floor.

Children
Children are welcome at Camp Tosebo but for their safety must be supervised at all times.

Fires
Fires are allowed in the fireplace and in the fire ring located behind the Club House up on the hill. Never leave a fire unattended and please completely extinguish your campfire with the hose located nearby.

Cleanup
Please leave the Trunk House as you found it. There is a garbage can provided for your convenience and we ask you to keep it lined with the garbage bags located under the sink. When full please place in the dumpster. In Michigan most bottles and cans have a refundable deposit and we ask you to return your used bottles and cans. We encourage you to recycle other glass and metal containers in the bins located next to the garbage container. The refrigerator should be clean of all prepared foods and dishes should be put back in their place. Guests should take any left over food with them. Linens can be left on the beds; used towels can be left on the floor in the bathroom. Please do not clean fish in the Trunk House kitchen. A fish cleaning station is located behind the Club House by the garden shed. Please limit arts and crafts projects to the table. Disposable table cloths are provided to cover the table top. Please clean up after projects and we ask that children are supervised during craft activities.

Telephone
The telephone is shared between the buildings at the camp. Local calls can be made at no charge but you’ll need to dial an 800 number for long distance or use a calling card or credit card. There are local access numbers in Manistee for Earthlink and AOL. Please limit the length of your calls. If you would like to receive calls the camp number is 231.889.4489. Just remember, it’s a party line!
