The space
The First Floor
The first floor boasts an open concept kitchen, dining and living area. Off the living room is a main floor owner's bedroom with attached bathroom complete with walk-in, tiled shower. Also located on the main floor is the utility/laundry room and a second full bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The three season porch is also off the living room. There is an additional dining, sitting, and sleeping area in there during the warmer months.
The Second Floor
The second floor features four bedrooms, each with a queen bed. One room has an additional built in bunk bed. There is a third, full bathroom with shower upstairs and an additional sitting/TV area. note: we’ve recently replaced the upstairs shower with a new round corner shower as the previous one had a leak. All is fresh and ready to go!
Both TVs are Smart Roku TVs - we now provide Hulu, Netflix, HBOMax, Peacock, Disney+, and ESPN+
Guest access
You will have access to the whole property except for the locked owner's closet located in the bathroom off of the laundry room. Take care around the property as there is an artesian well to the east of the house and a small stream resulting from that runoff. Guests should be aware that we are in a very private, wooded area, so there is wildlife. We have had many turkeys, deer, and even bears visit the property. Except for the bear, they have all been very respectful. Do not leave food outside and be sure to clean the grill after use!
Other things to note
Guest must be at least 21 years of age to book.
We prohibit the use of pesticides or bug bombs being used in our property. Mosquitoes & other bugs are to be expected up north. We have a summer screen porch to help enjoy the outdoors without mosquitoes. We also highly recommend bringing Thermocell mosquito repellent systems and/or personal bug repellent for your self and others in your party.
Using bug bombs or the like on the property will come with a fee of $100-200 per violation. We love our pollinators.
If you have a fire in our fire pit, you are responsible for ensuring it is completely out prior to leaving it unattended. Fires found still smoldering will cost you an additional $50. Please use our outdoor hose to douse the fire.
