1. Although our property is professionally plowed… We do STRONGLY recommend that you have a 4 wheel or all wheel drive vehicle to access this property. Please note that the driveway, decks and the area outside the house can be very icy and slippery. Please use extreme caution during the winter months to avoid slipping and falling.
2. Please note: Basement bedroom is non confirming and does NOT have an egress inside the bedroom. Egress is located outside the bedroom at the walk out basement entrance.
3. Ring camera doorbell located on front of property and security camera on front of property located on floodlight. Recording will be turned off after guest checkin and not turned on until one hour before check out time, unless host deems otherwise necessary
4. There is no public access for launching personal watercraft, nor is there a place at the property to launch. Watercraft is limited to owner provided: two kayaks and one two person row boat
5. Due to seasonal changes, the well water at the property may have varying amounts of iron, discoloring it from time to time. For this reason we have a water cooler to use for cooking and drinking water should you find it necessary to suit your preferences to use for these items.
6. This is a rural area and internet outages may occur. Host is not responsible for failure of internet availability. 7. No charging of electric vehicles
