CABIN:
This cabin is completely furnished, and you will have the entire place to yourselves; however, there is an upstairs unit (bunkhouse) above the detached garage which may be rented at the same time and their parking is right at the garage door.
If you are bringing an animal with you, there is an additional $250 per pet fee (non-refundable) that is due after you reserve the unit but is paid directly to owner (to avoid extra vrbo fees set on top of it). If not paid, it will be collected through the resolution center. (A few bad dogs ruined it for the rest.) Please account and calculate for this additional $250 if you intend to bring an animal. Please bring a kennel for your pet and have them kenneled while you are away or during the sleep hours. There is NO doggie door (or permanent fencing) so you must plan to take your pet outside regularly on a leash.
Accommodation for toiletries, necessities, etc. are available for a few days only; like a weekend, (depending on the size of your group and how frequent the use). You will need to purchase those items for the rest of your stay.
All reservations will be pending until a cleaning person can be committed to your reservation. Reservations cannot be made too far in advance (no more than 30 days in case current renters want to stay longer)
Parking for the cabin is on the street side, in front of the cabin or between cabin and garage on cabin side.
