▶ Property Layout & Boundaries:
The nearly 4-acre property contains two separate vacation rentals that are privately situated, not visible to one another, and do not share amenities or guest spaces. The only shared area is the main driveway entrance.

Although the property feels secluded, neighboring private properties surround the area. Please remain within the guest areas included with your rental and avoid entering neighboring property or private storage, maintenance, and equipment areas.

▶ Local Hosts:
The hosts reside on the property in a separate area that is not visible from either rental. You may occasionally see us maintaining the grounds or nearby trails, but guest privacy is important to us and there is no need to interact unless you wish to. As longtime local residents, we're always happy to share recommendations, favorite hikes, dining suggestions, and hidden gems to help you make the most of your Olympic Peninsula visit.

▶ Quiet Hours:
This is a peaceful forest setting where sound can carry surprisingly far. To be respectful of neighboring properties and comply with local regulations, quiet hours are observed from 9:00 PM to 8:00 AM. Please keep voices, music, and outdoor activities at a reasonable volume during these hours.

▶ Wildlife & Nature:
We are surrounded by native forest and wildlife. Deer, birds, rabbits, squirrels, and other animals are commonly seen around the property. Please enjoy wildlife from a respectful distance and do not approach or feed animals.

To help keep wildlife wild, do not leave food, beverages, coolers containing food, or scented items outdoors, in backpacks, or in your vehicle. Even small items such as a wrapped granola bar can attract wildlife. A cooler containing only sealed, unopened beverages may be left on the covered porch.

As with any forest environment, insects occasionally find their way indoors. We perform regular inspections and pest control, but you may occasionally spot an insect during your stay.

▶ Sustainable Features & Backup Power:
● We use eco-friendly cleaning products to help maintain a safe, healthy, and environmentally conscious space.

● Backup generator for added peace of mind during occasional mountain power outages.

▶ Firewood & Propane:
Your first firewood bundle and first propane tank for the firepit (if under burn bans) are included with your stay. Additional firewood and propane may be purchased from us or obtained locally.

▶ Private Well Water:
Our rural property is served by a private well. The water quality is excellent and provides clean, fresh drinking water throughout the home.

▶ Heating & Cooling
Three mini-split systems provide heating and cooling throughout the home, with units in the living area, upstairs TV room, and upstairs bedroom.

▶ Wood Stove:
For insurance and safety reasons, the wood stove in the main home is not available for guest use. Please do not attempt to open or operate the stove. The home is heated and cooled by the mini-split system.

▶ Food & Beverage Disclaimer:
Food and beverages shown in photos are for styling purposes only and are not included with your stay. A starter supply of complimentary coffee and tea is provided for your enjoyment.
