Guest access:
Full access to entire house, garage, and around it. Parking available for your boat/RV up to 30ft long (you can park on right side of the garage)

Family Gatherings/Events/Private Parties:
Please REQUEST pricing for booking for more than 10 guests by messaging us FIRST. 10 guests is always the MAX for overnight, but I do allow small private parties under 25 for day events. There is an extra charge for small events. NO HOUSE PARTIES ALLOWED. If you plan to have a raging party you will find the police immediately at door steps, you will be removed without refund. Please be respectful to property and neighbors.

For Instant Booking/Pre-Check in Requirements:
Host requires guests to confirm identity showing ID through VRBO email before checking in; as is standard practice for hotels before receiving a key. Failure to do so will result in cancelled booking. It's too easy to create an account and book a private residence without any confirmation of identity. If you were renting out a half million dollar home for only a few days to a complete stranger that could walk away with damages and free expensive furniture you would also do the same basic preventative practice to prevent fraud and theft. Thanks for your understanding.

For Pet Owners:
Please pickup after your pet and clean any messes. If cleaner has to pickup outside after your pet there will be an additional $100 pet charge after you check out. If you plan to take your dog(s) for a walk around property please have them on a leash. Next door neighbor do have two small dogs they walk and do not want dogs on their property. There is no fencing but large backyard to run. If you bring pets. Please pick up after them. There are doggy bags in backyard.
You can leave in trashcan provided in garage.

For Smokers:
If you smoke or vape please only do outside the home or in the garage. There is a zero tolerance policy for inside house smoking or vaping. So if someone smokes please only do in the spaces provided (outside or garage).

Self-Check-in. You will receive an entry code on day of check-in. Host's 24-7 on call.

Our goal is to offer you a 5 Star vacation home experience. So feel confident booking it instantly!!! Summer dates book up fast.
