Alpine Resort is closed for the season but there's still lots to be done. It seems this year was the year for leaky roofs so Fred and Mike are busy replacing 5 cottage roofs. Together with regular maintenance that will keep them out of trouble for a while :) What's the weather forecast .... ??It's been a great year for fishing too. Pickerel have been plentiful and the bluegill have never been bigger. Bass fishing was amazing this year.. Our biggest small mouth is one caught by Lindsay; a 5 lb 13 oz beauty she released. This year we gave away tee shirts instead of trophies for the weekly big fish winner, fishing derby and turtle race winners. They were a big hit! Guests are often commenting on the cleanliness of our cabins and the grounds. Alpine Resort is a family owned, small business. We take pride in our park and it shows. We do our best to reduce our carbon footprint and be kind to the environment. Food items commonly used are sold in the store so you don't have to drive. Catch and release is encouraged for the big fish and we all enjoy a fish fry with the smaller ones. Northumberland County has a great recycling facility and we encourage all our guests to sort their trash. Food scraps are fed to the chickens of a local farmer. Nothing goes to waste around here! ALPINE RESORT has a new FACEBOOK page! There's a photo album with all the pictures of we took over the past couple of summers. If you had your photo taken with a fish, because you won a turtle race, balloon toss....whatever, find yourself and tag it. Become a fan and receive regular updates. Let us know how much you liked your stay at Alpine Resort and feel free to post your suggestions. Your feedback is appreciated! Why not join or start a discussion? Tell us your favourite ice cream flavours, fish recipes or even ideas on how to improve Alpine to enhance your cottage experience. |

Pleasure Craft Operator Card .
Currently, a Pleasure Craft Operator Card is not required in order to operate a rented watercraft. Instead, it is sufficient for a renter to complete a rental safety checklist. Take note however that some companies have made it their corporate policy to require renters to have their Pleasure Craft Operator Card. Alpine resort does not require you to possess a card to rent our boats although we do encourage it.
Non-residents only need to obtain a Pleasure Craft Operator Card if they are operating their powered boat in Canadian waters for more than 45 consecutive days or if the boat they are operating is registered or licensed in Canada (this includes rented boats). Boater Education Cards or equivalent certifications are recognized in Canada. Proper identification should be kept on board at all times to provide proof of residency.
For answers to questions on the pleasure craft operators card: Transport Canada website
For safety regulations go to Marine safety publications
PASSPORTS
The Department of State has developed a Passport Card as a more portable and less expensive alternative to the traditional passport book. The passport card is a basic component of the PASS (People Access Security Service) system announced by Secretaries Rice and Chertoff in January 2006, and will meet the specific requirements of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) to secure and expedite travel. WHTI is the Administration’s plan to implement a provision of the Intelligence Reform Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, which requires citizens of the United States, Canada, and Bermuda to have a passport or other designated document that establishes the bearer’s identity and nationality to enter or re-enter the United States from Mexico, Canada, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. According to the Department of Homeland Security, other documents such as registered traveler cards (NEXUS, SENTRI and FAST cards) will be acceptable under WHTI.
