FIREARMS AND WEAPONS: The safety and security of our guests is extremely important to us. Our Firearms and Weapons Policy is designed for the protection of our guests and pertains to the presence of firearms and weapons on our premises. We recognize that guests may legally possess firearms or weapons for a variety of legitimate purposes. This policy has been developed to create a safe environment by providing appropriate guidance over the custody of firearms and weapons on our premises. Pecan Haus is private property. Guests, who are lawfully permitted to possess a firearm or weapon, may bring such onto our premises for storage purposes only, with the understanding that they are personally responsible for following:

• Guests must abide by all Federal, State, and local laws

• No cleaning of firearms or weapons is permitted on premises
• Firearms and weapons must be safeguarded and secured in either a locked, hard sided firearm container or a soft gun case (to be provided by the guest) at all times and clearly labeled with their name and contact information.

Guests who fail to abide by our policy may be asked to leave the premises, are subject to trespass, and may be subject to further legal action. Exempted from this policy are law enforcement officers and designated military personnel who are on-duty and required to carry firearms in the performance of their duties. No exemption to this policy is allowed for private persons, even those licensed and permitted to carry a firearm openly or concealed under local, state, or federal law.

It is our policy to promptly turn over any firearm or weapon left on the property to the Gillespie County Sheriff’s Office. You may retrieve your personal belongings from them.
