Safety & Security
Welcome to your home away from home. Vacation is a time for fun and relaxation; however, just like at home, safety and security begins with you. It is our goal that your time spent with us is enjoyable, which also means feeling safe and secure. Here are a few safety tips recommended for you to follow:
Inside Your Room
Keep the deadbolt locked when inside your room. Do not allow strangers into your room. If someone’s identity seems suspicious, dial “0” and report them to Guest Services. Never leave your children unattended. Familiarize them with their new surroundings and other safety procedures. Make sure to lock your vehicle and take all valuable items inside with you and/or store them in your trunk out of sight.
Keys Cards
Keep track of your key card by keeping it with you at all times. Do not give it to others. Return your key cards to Guest Services at your check out time.
On and Off the Property
Never leave your wallet, keys or purse unattended.
Ask our staff for the most direct driving directions when preparing to travel to attractions.
Instead of carrying cash, use a credit card or traveler’s check when making large purchases. Do not draw attention to yourself by displaying large amounts of cash or expensive jewelry.
If you see any activity that appears suspicious, please dial 0 and/or report it to Guest Services.
Pay attention to when and where you are walking or parking. Be aware of your surroundings.
For your safety, please stay on walking paths and trails. Do not climb on outdoor displays, rock formations, or landscape structures around the resort.
Wildlife is abundant at the Wilderness Club at Big Cedar; please respect their space and allow them to move about peacefully. Please notify our staff if a situation appears threatening.

If you have questions or concerns, contact the Resort Guest Services by dialing 0.
Be aware of where the fire alarm, extinguisher and exits are located inside and outside of your unit. Familiarize yourself with the resort fire evacuation plan.
Make sure you know how to turn off your air conditioner.
Keep your villa key card on hand at all times.
In Case of Fire
Remain calm. First notify the fire department (911) and then notify the Resort Guest Services by dialing 0. Identify your name and location, with a brief description of the situation.
Touch your unit door. IF IT IS HOT, DO NOT OPEN IT.
If the door is cool, brace your shoulder against the door and open it slowly. Be prepared to quickly close it if there are flames or smoke on the other side.
If you are able to leave your unit, take your key, close the door behind you and sound the nearest alarm. Predetermine a meeting place so you will know all of your family members are safe.
Do not take the elevator. Use the nearest stairwell or a fire exit.
Crawl or keep low to reduce exposure to smoke or odorless carbon monoxide.
If you stay in your unit, make every effort to notify someone that you/your family are inside. If normal communication to 911 or the resort is not available, signal to them by hanging a sheet from your window. Turn off the air conditioner and fill the bathtub with water. Place wet sheets and towels around the door jam. Block any vents emitting smoke. Only open the windows if you are sure you are letting in fresh air. If walls are hot, bail them with water, using your ice bucket to cool them.
If there is smoke in your unit, stay as low as possible and keep a wet cloth over your nose and mouth.
Do not jump. A fall from all the upper floors can cause serious injury; Rather, continue to protect yourself from the fire and signal from your window for help.
If you are in a public area when a fire starts, calmly leave through the nearest fire exit.
