Due to our daughter's severe allergies, absolutely no pets are allowed. Pets trigger convulsive seizures.
We provide unscented Laundry Products. Due to guest allergies to scented laundry products, only unscented laundry detergent, unscented non chlorine bleach, unscented fabric softener and unscented dryer sheets are permitted to be used in our washer and dryer. Scented laundry products leave a residue in the laundry appliances and linens which can cause an anaphylactic reaction. If you break this House Rule, there is an additional $500 Cleaning Fee if we smell scented Laundry Product residue in the washer, dryer or on the linens and towels.
Our home is dynamic and changes with the seasons or when I find new treasures! Please note we change out furniture, decor, accessories, etc. from time to time which may not be pictured and items pictured may be removed.
We've had to make some changes due to Covid-19. We are saddened by these changes. It’s become a different world. Because of the virus:
1. We have removed all of the condiments, food & beverage items from the pantry and refrigerator.
2. We have removed the bedroom pillows, blankets and throws. You will need to bring your own.
3. Early check-ins or late check outs are not permitted because of the cleaning time required. Check in is between 5 to 8 pm.
4. All guests must be symptom free for 14 days prior to arrival.
Regardless of the precautions, we will not be able to guarantee a virus free environment. Unfortunately for all of us, including our family, you venture out into the world at your own risk.
Pool Heater Option:
We are excited to announce that we have recently installed a swimming pool heater for your enjoyment! The pool can be set to a comfortable 85 degrees. An additional charge of $100 per day + tax covers the heater's cost. We hope this enhancement will make your stay even more enjoyable if you use it!
