Other things to note
Quiet hours 9pm-9am! No outdoor music or excessive noise outside of quiet hours. Our neighbors are closer than they appear. Noise travels through the woods. There are decibel monitors on the property to ensure the calm and tranquil environment is not disrupted.
We use security cameras to confirm the number of guests and cars.
Only registered and paid for guests are permitted on the property. The max occupancy is 13 for this property and must not be exceeded. This includes children, infants and babies. If it is determined more guests are on the property than is booked then you will be asked to leave the property for violation of terms and conditions that were agreed upon by booking.
There is a caretaker apartment in a separate space of the house. It shares no common access, my car may be parked near the garage, and our cars may pass on the driveway. During your stay I will not be in your spaces, including the deck and yard.
We are open to early check-in or late check-out if bookings allow it, feel free to inquire!
