Picture Perfect, but Private PropertyPlease contact Coast Collective before taking professional or large group photos on these grounds.You may see this sign on the property. We realize that Havenwood is a spectactular location to take photographs and we are happy to share it with people. However, it does cost us to keep the grounds in picture perfect shape and there is a small charge for groups (i.e wedding parties, photography groups, etc.) to help offset those costs. Thank you. |
