Events:
We welcome all sorts of events from weddings, funeral receptions, birthdays, graduations, baby showers, and more! Our property can comfortably host up to 75 people. Please note, we do usually charge an event fee depending on the size and scope of the event, so please reach out to the host for more info.

Pets:
At the moment, we do allow small dogs under 25lbs and charge a fee of $100/dog. If you wish to bring a larger dog, that may be arranged, but you must get approval from the host as they may only be allowed to access the basement area since there are no hardwood floors to worry about in the basement.
Guest access
Guests will have the entire home and grounds to themselves. Guests will use a smart code to enter the property found in their pre-checkin link sent to them in the very first welcome message after booking. This code will only be viewable within 48 hours of check-in.

If you do decide to stay at our lovely home, you will be sent a check-in link from our third party servicer where we will collect the following fees separately after you book:

1) Refundable Security Deposit - $500. We recommend paying this with a credit card since it will only be a hold placed on your card during your reservation. If you pay with a debit card or direct ACH transfer, the money will be withdrawn from your account 3 days before check-in and refunded 3 days afterwards upon successful inspection of the premises.

2) We also require all of our guests to upload a photo ID to their precheck-in portal to confirm their identity before we will give access to the property.
