Please be aware that this is a NON-Smoking property and due to the high fire danger there are no open flames allowed from April 1 to Nov 1.

There are 3 security cameras outside covering the cul-de-sac, driveway, and back of the garage.

Please note that the bathroom shower handles need a firm tug out to turn the water on. Once water is on, then twist the handle for desired water temperature.

We do accept up to 2 Pets at our property but there is an additional cleaning fee of $50 per stay.

If you are planning on bringing pets (which are welcome), please keep them on a leash at all times as we are out in the country - we don't want anyone losing their friends. Do not leave pets tied up outside. Please DO NOT allow your pets on the bed, as their paws will stain the bedding. If you cannot stop your pets from coming onto the beds, please bring your own king-size blanket as a safety cover. DO NOT leave pets unattended either outside or inside. Pets can get nervous when left alone in a new space and chew on things.
