All that said, Ketch Creek is a home. Sometimes things break. In most cases, we are prepared to have issues addressed immediately and recovered for you. In some exceptional cases, we cannot. We will do our very best. We are super hosts who have had thousands of guests (80-120 every month) stay at our home; your comfort, care, and enjoyment are our goal. Help us help you when challenges arrive.



We hope that you enjoy the home as much as we do.



We welcome pets (Dogs specifically) and have dogs on the property occasionally. We do charge pet fees because clean up after pets is added work and cost.



Enjoy the resort style remote controlled AC in the hall bedrooms and loft bedroom. The living area has central AC (the thermostat is in the basement outside the bathroom).



There is a second building in the rear of the property. The building is occupied (sometimes by us) but the residents (including us) keep to themselves and will not be using the larger common areas during your stay. The newly installed pool is an exception. This is available to all guests and is private only if you rent the entire property.



With 9 acres to use, there is little reason for intrusion on your privacy and the second building is most of a football field away from the main house with private separate parking.



So, to be clear, the white barn and the tin barn are generally off-limits to guests. This is not part of your experience.



Guest Access:

There is a very large parking area and a 2 vehicle car port.



If more space is needed to park, park on the grass.



Please do not block the drive to the white barn.



The Neighborhood:

We offer a gated location across a bridge and secluded from neighbors (only one is visible at more than a football field from the house.



Enjoy your own gated compound experience.



Getting Around:

There is a large gravel parking area and parking on the grass is possible.



The car port will take two cars as well and is available to you.



Other Things to Note:

* Please do not change the settings on the hot tub other than increasing or decreasing the temperature with the +/- buttons and turning on the jets or changing the lights.



* Please limit use of the fire place to the main level only. ALWAYS open the damper before starting a file. Open by pulling the lever FORWARD. Close by pushing backwards. We will clean the fireplace. Please DO NOT clean the fireplace.



*The resort style AC in the bedrooms on the hallway and in the loft are controlled by the white remote in each room.



*The washroom / utility room and the first two bedrooms from the living area on the hall must all be on the same setting or they automatically shut off. All on heat, all on cool, all on auto or they will NOT work.



*The main area living room, kitchen, and basement including the basement bedroom are controlled by the thermostat outside the bathroom in the basement. The thermostat is located between the bathroom door and the furnace room door.



A small selection of spices, creamer, and condiments are supplied. However, do not expect all spices for recipes to be provided.



Please do not use the gate remotes (If someone discovers them). They are not provided for guest use and shouldn't be out.



Staples like flour, sugar, etc. are NOT provided.
