For those with clubhouse accommodations:
First Floor Clubhouse - There is an indoor area that is accessible. The Clubhouse Lawn is a grass lawn area and may not be accessible for all guests.
Second Floor Clubhouse - While accessible via an in-direct elevator, this is a historic part of the building and more challenging to access.
Third Floor Clubhouse - Dining on the third floor is accessible. Getting to the restrooms requires someone to open the door (no auto open).
Bathrooms- not all bathrooms in the clubhouse are accessible due to the historic nature of the building.
