Important Notes
Age & Aroma: The cabin is in the woods and is over 120 years old. Because of this, it does have the scent of the 120 year old hand hewn beams. Many people enjoy the scent, but if you are sensitive to smells or have allergies, please do not book this property if that would bother you. There is absolutely no mold, etc., but the beams do give off a very faint rustic “old cabin” wood aroma.
Critter Season: This is the time of the year that outside critters start trying to find places to sleep! Because of this we do have rodent poison around the cabin and under appliances/furniture. While we have not had any issues, there is always the chance that a critter sneaks in through an open door, etc. **Please make sure doors remain shut to avoid this.** Please also avoid any children or pets going under furniture or appliances.
Wasp Spray: We will have bottles of wasp spray on the front porch for summer months, although we haven’t seen many bees/wasps for some time.
Windows & AC: If you use the Central Air, please close all the windows. You may use the air conditioner or the small window upstairs but please do not try to open the bedroom windows in the upstairs bedrooms.
How to Reach Us: If you have any issues, questions, etc. please message in the app. If you call/text it may take much longer for our staff to respond. However, we will respond quickest in the app.
Damage Policy: Lastly, before each stay, we check that everything is in working order and there are no rips, tears, spills, stains, etc. on anything. Should something happen during your stay that damages something, we’d rather you notify us right away rather than us having to charge for damages that we were not told about. You are also encouraged to let us know if you see anything that is wrong upon checkin.
Final Reminder: We will not tolerate complaints about any of the above if you decide to book this property. It is an old, charming property that deserves renters who will enjoy their time!
We truly appreciate you taking care of our little cabin—and we hope you enjoy your stay!
