Amenities

Here at Castle Harbour, we not only have a pavilion that can be used but we also have a pool. The Pavilion, in order to reserve the pavilion, you have to fill out and sign a pavilion reserve sheet. The sheet can be found on our pool page. Not following the rules can result in loss of pavilion use not only immediately but indefinitely.

The pool at Castle Harbour is about 4-foot-deep and crystal clear! In order to receive a pool pass, you would have to download the application, if you are a renter, your landlord would have to fill out an Owner Delegation form. All forms can be found on the Pool. Rules to both the pavilion as well as the pool are located there as well.

Be a Good Neighbor and Noise

As part of a community it is important to be considerate of our neighbors. Everyone should try to be amicable, pleasant and thoughtful. Please observe quite time between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Avoid the use of any noise generating equipment, and monitor your children and pet’s activities that may cause excessive floor noise. However, there are times when we must ask others to do the same. If there is an issue with one of your neighbors, please try to have a conversation with them to resolve the issue. If this does not work, send us an email at info@pinnacle-md.com and give us as much detail as possible. You can remain anonymous, but this will limit what we can do to assist you.

The Condominium Master Policies Insurance must cover both general common elements and limited common elements in units. Up to $10,000 of the deductible will be the responsibility of the unit owner where the damage originated.

This is not for emergencies.

Snow

The snow removal contractor does not begin plowing until the snow accumulation has reached three (3) inches. They will plow the main drive lane, clear sidewalks and apply salt. They will not clear individual parking spaces. Do not put any items out to save a parking spot. It will be thrown away. Be a good neighbor and not park in a spot that was shoveled out by someone else.

Castle Harbour has provided salt buckets, a shovel and a broom for each building. Please put the shovel and broom back when you are done with them.

Please use the minimal amount of salt on the steps. While we fill the buckets with a safer salt alternative, to much can still damage the cement.

Castle Harbour has a few areas around the property that are labeled “no parking during a snow event” If you park in one of these areas, you are subject to being towed.

If you are towed, your vehicle will be taken to an impound lot owned and operated by North County Towing.
