Please remember that you are staying at a house, not a hotel. Please treat the space with respect and if any problems arise, we will do our best to take care of the problem as soon as possible. However, note that there is no one living on site.

In addition to the house rules (please ensure to review them), here are some additional important things to consider:

* The short gravel driveway for the property is a little steep at the beginning. (We have a sedan and and haven't had any issues, but if you don't want to go up, you could park at the base of the driveway and walk up). The driveway will accommodate 2 vehicles. Overflow vehicles can also be parked near the house or clubhouse.

* Having your own vehicle is a must so that you can easily access all the High Country attractions. The scenic drive is somewhat winding, but you'll be a pro in no time! The roads leading up to the property are all paved (except for a couple miles of gravel road, if coming in Northbound off of Elk Creek Road).

* 4 wheel drive is not necessary to access the property, however, note that there are some narrow and windy roads on the scenic drive to the cabin. The main roads of the community are plowed if it snows, however in cases of severe weather (particularly during wintertime), you may not be able to leave the property immediately due to road conditions. If you are staying in winter, you may need a 4 wheel drive vehicle and should be prepared to encounter these conditions.

* You will be provided the code for the gate to the community, however guests must register with the security staff at the main gate upon arrival. Security staff will provide a guest pass and help with directions. If arriving outside of normal business hours (Mon-Sat 7:30 am to 5:30 pm), please register with the security staff the next business day.

* There are stairs up to the front door/main level of the home (the main level is raised so you get a nice vantage point)

* There is a fireplace, however, please always remember to turn it off after use.

* All bed linens are provided. Additionally, a Starter Kit is provided that includes some paper towels, toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, laundry detergent, and travel size shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. You may run out of these items during your stay, so you may want to bring extra.

* We do not send maintenance to the property during your stay. Only after you depart.

* As we are a secluded mountain retreat, the closest gas station is 12 miles (approximately 22 minutes), closest grocery store (Food Lion) is 11 miles (approximately 20 minutes) and closest restaurant is 6 miles (15 minutes) away. We recommend stopping for gas and groceries on the way in to stock up for your stay and to plan accordingly.

* Cell service in the mountains may be spotty. Note that in the mountains, internet service can go out at times. We do recommend you connecting your phone for Wi-Fi calling. We do have Smart TVs (Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Prime/Disney +), so just bring your own passwords, however, we recommend downloading your favorite tv shows and movies prior to your stay to avoid any "mountain internet" issues that may arise. DVD player and a selection of movies are available for guests.

* The cabin is located in a wooded area, so you may see and hear bugs, furry critters of all sizes (including but not limited to deer, squirrels, and rodents), and reptiles. Our property has regularly scheduled pest control, however, we cannot guarantee that any such critters will not be visible in and around the property. Please try to keep the doors closed, do not leave food outside to prevent entry of unwanted critters. Also do not feed any wildlife as they are wild animals. No refunds will be provided if a local critter visits the property.

* Children are welcome at the cabin, however, the cabin may not be suitable for young children because of the indoor fireplace, spiral staircase, and high outdoor deck. Parents should use their own discretion when booking.

* Since the main level and deck is high off of the ground, do not sit on any of the railings. Please ensure that all guests, children, and pets are monitored at all times while on premises.

* No refunds for weather/natural disasters/power outages/other things that are beyond our control.

Located in Deep Gap, this cabin is in a rural area and in the mountains.
