What our guests are saying:
“Our kids loved the outdoor fire pit, pool, mini golf, and pink pickleball court! The blinking colored pool and mini golf lights and music made every night feel like a private party! Indoors, the theater, arcade machines, ping pong table, and billiards were a wonderful treat!” - Belkis, Feb 2024

IMPORTANT NOTES
~Rental Agreement, ID & Security Deposit Hold~
This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement and the booker’s ID verification. Guests are required to either authorize a refundable temporary $500 security deposit hold (not a traditional security deposit, not an actual charge, released if no damage/excessive cleaning), OR opt in for a $45 non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company.
The optional damage waiver is $45 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights.
To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account -- it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of our favorite local spots.
~Vacationing with Pets~
Pet Policy
- Up to 2 house-trained dogs (age 2+) allowed with approval.
• No cats or other pets
• Rabies vaccination & flea/tick prevention required
• Add pets under “Guests > Pets” to apply the $200 pet fee. For stays of over 10 nights, additional pet cleaning fees may apply due to increased cleaning requirements.
• Provided: kennel (24"x36"), bowls, mat for pets
~Check-in and Check-Out~
Standard check-in time is 4:00 PM and check-out is 10:00 AM.
Early check-in and late check-out may be available for a small fee, subject to cleaning schedules. Availability is confirmed the day prior.
~Refunds~
We want your stay to be perfect, but please understand that we cannot issue refunds for factors beyond our control, such as weather conditions. We highly recommend guests purchase trip insurance.
This home is nestled in the heart of nature. To help keep critters out, please keep doors and windows closed during your stay. Despite regular pest control efforts, occasional encounters with insects or other small pests—indoors or outdoors—may occur. No refunds will be issued for pest sightings.
Additional cleaning may required for stays over 10 days. Please reach out to inquire about longer stays.
Violations of our house rules may lead to guests having to leave prematurely without a refund.
