The kitchen:
The kitchen is the first room you see as you enter the front door. We do ask that you remove your shoes upon entry of the front door. The kitchen is a full kitchen with a gas stove, a built in electric griddle, a half refrigerator with a small freezer compartment, a microwave, coffee pot, & toaster. Please make sure you spray the griddle before use (oil and pam spray in cupboard above stove) and please clean griddle with hot water only after use. Please also always make sure the burners and oven are turned completely off after use. Please feel free to use any utensils, plates, pots or pans in the kitchen and kindly clean up after yourselves. Dish soap is located on and wash-clothes & dish towels are in a drawer. Sponges are located in the hidden sink pull out right in front of the sink. The water is well water and is safe to drink!

The Living-room:
The living-room is complete with a large leather sectional, an oversized bean bag, a wood burning stove, two rocking chairs along with a reading area (with reading material for kids and adults and game cupboard ) that is located in the north east corner. Enjoy the sun in the window seat as well. Feel free to play all the games you’d like but return them as you found them please. You will also find wooden TV trays in the south west corner of the room if you need to relax while eating or enjoying a game in the living room but please clean up after yourselves. The living-room also features a smart tv so you can access all your favorite streaming aps. There are also plenty of throws and blankets to cuddle up in on our blanket ladder so make yourself at home. We ask that you do not wear dirty shoes on the wood floors and please no pets on the wood floors or the furniture. Also please only use the wood burning stove if you are familiar with starting/controlling a fire in one. Wood is provided right outside by the patio for $5/bundle or you can bring your own. (It is honor system and you can leave cash in the can in the small “wood shed” or you can venmo Jen at @Jen-Cornelius-2 ) Please do not turn thermostat heat above 70 degrees or the AC below 63.

The Bathrooms:
The are 2 bathrooms. The main bath is complete with an original claw tub that also has a working shower. The tub has a tray for you to use and enjoy if you want to soak in the tub while reading along with some bath soak you can feel free to use. If you shower please remove the tray and store it in the bathroom closet. Clean towels & washcloths are available on our towel ladder & in the bathroom closet along with shampoo and conditioner if needed. There is also a hair dryer provided for those in need to use located in the bathroom closet.

The second bath is the master bathroom which is connected to the master bedroom. The master bath has an oversized walk in shower and a double vanity with 2 sinks. PLEASE always squeegee and dry the glass shower doors after use to help keep our cleaning fees low. Towels can be found in the linen closet in this space.
Please put all used towels, etc. in the laundry hamper near the washer upon check out. We hope you enjoy both our bathrooms. The main bath is one that we preserved as a piece of history of this residence! (The bathroom closet also has cleaning supplies for your use to tidy up if needed.) The master bath is newly remodeled for a more modern taste. We feel these bathrooms should please everyone!

The Mud room/laundry room:
The mud room is complete with a full washer and dryer for you to use. Please use minimal laundry soap if you utilize this area. The mud room is also complete with a place to put boots/shoes and hang coats. Please take shoes off and store them in this area while you enjoy our indoor space. We also prefer if you will be enjoying our outside area that you try to use this back entry while going in and out to minimize the dirt that gets drug onto the wood floors in the other part of the house. The wash tub sink is also handy if you need to clean any wildlife while hunting or just to wash up when coming inside. (If the trash gets full it can be taken to the dumpster that’s across the driveway & new trash bags are in the closet.)

The Bunkroom:
The bunkroom is complete with two very sturdy amish bunk beds that each have a trundle bed (can sleep 6 total). The bunk beds are fully made before each guest arrive and you will find pillows and blankets for the trundle beds in the armoire located in the bunk room. Additionally pillows and sheets for the pull out sofa are located in the armoire drawers but the bed spread is rolled up under the small end table located on the east side of the sofa. For everyone’s safety please limit weight on each bed to 200 lbs. and no jumping on any of these beds. The bunkroom also features a smart TV that you can stream all your favorite aps from. There is also an Atari located in the armoire if you’d like to try some gaming while relaxing on the two big bean bag chairs we’ve added to this space! Night lights can also be found in the armoire if needed. We do ask that no pets be allowed on any of the furniture. (Please remove all used sheets/linens and place them in the hamper near the washing machine upon checkout.)

The Master Bedroom:
The master bedroom is complete with a queen bed set and a new mattress that we have been told is very comfortable. There is one outlet located behind the dresser but for your convenience there is a new alarm clock plugged in sitting on the dresser that has two outlets and a charging station. There is a small heating blanket located in the cupboard of the dresser if you need. There is also extra blanket in the other cupboard. The room is complete with a portable fan as well as a closet area. Due to allergies in our family we do ask that no pets be on the furniture. (Please remove any used sheets upon check out and place them in the hamper near the washing machine.)

The Loft Room:
The loft room is located up the spiral staircase located in the living-room. The loft room features a high quality queen mattress and also has a small window to view any wildlife outdoors. This room has a closet as well. We also have a small sitting area that has the only working outlet near it so we have put an alarm clock in this area equipped with plug ins for your use. This room also has battery operated rope lights on the railing overlooking the living-room. We kindly ask you turn the lights off when you are not at the cabin. Additionally for safety please do not hang or lean on any railing and please do not let children play on the stairs. Please also keep any pets off the bed. (Please remove any used sheets/linens upon check out and place them in the hamper near the washing machine.)
The Cellar:
There is a cellar located outside the south side of the house. We ask that you do not enter the cellar unless you need to in the event of severe weather. There is a unique crawl space located below the kitchen. We ask that you do not enter this space.
The Patio:
The patio area is complete with a couch, two chairs, a bar, and a charcoal grill. We have also added a table and chairs with an umbrella to seat 6 near the grill. We hope you enjoy it! There are grilling utensils located in the cupboard of the island in the kitchen. Feel free to use them all just return them how you found them. Also some charcoal will be provided. The patio has additional chairs stacked there that you may use for wherever as long as you return them when finished. (Much of the patio furniture is stored inside in the winter months so it will not be available then.)
The Outdoor Fire-pit
There are 6 chairs that are by the outdoor fire-pit. Wood that is bundled and located in the small green covered “wood shed” north of the patio can be purchased by the bundle (It is honor system and you can leave cash in the can in the small “wood shed” or you can venmo Jen at @Jen-Cornelius-2 ) for your convenience. Please make sure if you use the fire-pit that you keep children clear of the fire and you safely put the fire out before leaving the area.
The Yard:
We recently added a hammock area, a volleyball court, and horse shoe pits for your use. Have fun!! (These are only available during the warmer months and are not set up in the winter.)
River Area:
If you go enjoy the river area please be safe. We are not responsible for accidents or injuries. Enter this area at your own risk. We do have 5 kayaks and 6 tubes for guest use available upon request plus 2 beach chairs you may use in the river. Please just clean them up and return them where you found them if you utilize them. We do require signed waivers for each family if your group will be using the river area. Please ask ahead of time and Jen will email the waivers to you so all your guests can sign ahead of your stay.
Also while we are cleaning up the outdoor area please enjoy hiking or exploring but be cautious of anything being renovated. (Please DO NOT ENTER THE SHOP as that is our sons home/ property.)
