An automatic 24-hour Access Gate is used to control entry into South Down Shores and Long Bay. Owners and tenants must have an entry code. RFID gate tags may also be purchased for $10 each. Contact Evergreen Management (603-527-8147) if you would like to purchase one. If a property transfers, the buyers need to request a new entry code so they can gain admission to the communities. Tenants must request their own entry code which will be active only during their rental period.
