Two guest lists for one Christie Beach reunion
Keep two lists. The picnic list can run to thirty, the pavilion capacity Grey Sauble gives. The overnight list is capped by the chalets: Luna and Prima sleep 28 next to each other, Omega and Vega 26, Aurora and Vista 24. A third adjacent chalet lifts the overnight count to 39 or 40.
Relatives coming only for the beach must stay off the chalet property, because day visitors are not permitted. Send them the beach meeting time instead of the chalet address, and keep the evening at the chalets for the people sleeping there.
Booking the Christie Beach pavilion before the chalets
Grey Sauble confirms a pavilion booking only after the agreement and payment are complete, so an initial request is not a reservation. Secure the pavilion date first, then book each chalet on its live calendar at booking.blueviewchalets.com. With a two-night minimum and a 4:00 pm check-in, a Saturday picnic sits inside a Friday-to-Sunday stay. Parking at the beach is separate from the pavilion, and the site is open dawn to dusk.
The Luna and Prima pair is the largest two-chalet option, with a steam room in each house for the grandparents.
Food, washrooms and the Christie Beach day
Grey Sauble’s general guidance prohibits barbecues and campfires on its properties, so cook at the chalets, each of which has its own barbecue, and bring ready-to-eat food to the beach. Washrooms are seasonal. Grandparents who want to skip the drive can stay at the cluster, where the heated pool runs May to mid-September. The family reunion planning page covers the rest of the logistics.
Assigning rooms for a Christie Beach reunion
Give each branch of the family its own chalet. In Luna and Prima, each house has three queens for the senior couples and two bunk rooms, each with a single-over-double bunk and a single, so cousins can share. Settle the room list before the weekend using the Luna rooms and beds page and its Prima equivalent. Check-out is at 11:00 am on Sunday, so pack before the farewell breakfast rather than after it.
