- Go to nearest exit. There are exits at each end of the hallway. Refer to the map on the back of your door located in your room.
- Once outside, move to an area that is a safe distance from the burning building.
- Find the nearest house phone or another guest unit located away from the fire and dial “0” for the Front Desk or use your cell phone to dial 911.

- If you called the Front Desk, they will call 911.
- Do not return to the building until advised by the fire department.
- Try to assemble all people from your unit into one group so it can be quickly determined that everyone is safe and present.
WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF A TORNADO OR SEVERE WEATHER
- Guests should take shelter when severe weather threatens or when directed to do so by the Front Desk.
- Guests will be directed to the first floor and the Front Desk. Guests are to gather in the area behind the Front Desk and in the kitchen. Also, guests are able to congregate in the stairwells at the end of the hall on the first floor.
- Guests should remain there until a Cove Point Lodge employee gives the “all clear”.

MICKEY’S FISH HOUSE
Mickey’s Fish House down by the campfire is reminiscent of fishing operations that dot the coastline throughout places like the Sognefjord. But this quaint shelter isn’t a recent addition to the shore. This is the original Fish House that Mickey Lornston used when he and his family lived in a modest house, on the current Cove Point Lodge property (Located approximately where the lobby is today). He was a fisherman, who fished in the cove and in the waters in front of Cove Point Lodge. He had wooden docks that have been crushed by the waves of the lake over time, of which he’d pull his small 1-man fishing boats in/out of the water. If you look off the deck in front of the fish house, you may spot the old wood between the rocks in the water.
Today, Mickey’s Fish House is used as a reminder of the history of the property. Guests have been enjoying the covered deck, and space inside as a simple stop as they explore the property, or more formally for weddings, retreats, reunions, conferences, club or team gatherings, etc. Mickey lives in Two Harbors in assisted living and still enjoys telling stories of his fishing days.
