Check-out instructions

The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Gather used towels
Take out the rubbish
Turn off the lights
Please gather all trash (don’t forget the outside barrel) and haul it up the hill to the barrels there as you leave.
Please do not strip beds. It is much easier for me to check for stains or worn areas when they are still spread out on the bed. Please gather all used towels and pile them on the laundry room floor.
Please return any moved items to their original spot.
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
Please catch and release only with fishing! We want to ensure all guests get a chance to fish!

This place was a great spot for our family! We have did quite a bit of fishing, which was a lot of fun! The pool/ping pong table was nice for the rainy day that we had. It has a nice, open area for everyone to hang out in. We had a great time!

This place is sooooooo cute and Nancy is a excellent host. Meeting is when we arrived and great communication. This property is the ultimate glamping/nature lovers experience. The house has everything you need. We had a girls weekend but perfect for families and family reunion. Stuff to do for all ages. So much more to the property than listed. Beds are comfy. Not one negative thing to say. Definitely want to take my family next time

The house was everything as promised in the description with lots of extras. We were there for the weekend for a wedding. It offered plenty of room and extra space so you dont feel over crowded. The pingpong/pool table was a hit and the family voted to go back for another weeknd and just hang out there so we are able to fully enjoy it.Nancy was great at communication and made you feel welcome! A visit at Nancy's place feels like home.

A great place to get away (but have everything you need!)

This property was great for our crew of 6 adults, a toddler, and a baby, but would also be fantastic for larger groups! No matter the size of your group, there is plenty to spread out and not feel like you're all on top of each other! Everything you could need is there, which makes for a laid back trip!

Such a great place!

I promise you no one had regrets staying here. Very beautiful open layout, so much room for a huge family to come stay. Fishing, campfire and lots of room to play outside activities. The property owner was very easy to communicate with especially at check out. We loved this place.
