While we want you to thoroughly enjoy your vacation, there are some rules we have to help keep you safe, protect the property and respect the neighbors.

The pond out back is certainly one of the highlights of this property but it can be dangerous for young children. Never leave children unattended by the pond. Also never sit, dive or jump off of the deck railing. The water is only 1'-2' below the railing and will cause serious injury if you fall in. Only use the sandy beach entry into the pond, the rocks are slippery and at some points unstable.

Your welcome to use the canoe at your own risk If you have never been in one please watch a video on how to get in/out first.

The couch and umbrellas on the pond deck will be covered. Please remove the covers when in use and place them in that large container on the deck. Then when you are done put the covers back on.

The outdoor furniture cushions are in another large container on the side of the house, please also replace them once you have finished or if there is rain in the forecast.

There is a trash basket next to the refrigerator. The cleaning company will take care of your trash upon your departure, but if you need to get rid of trash during your stay, please bring it to the wooded trash receptacle at the top of the driveway and put the bag in a can. There will be bottles of ammonia in that receptacle, put some ammonia on the bag. We have do this because of the animals and the bears in particular. Never leave trash outside the house as it will attract animals and nobody wants to come face to face with a bear. Unfortunately Sullivan county does not recycle so you will have to trash everything. There are plenty of trash bags under the kitchen sink.

We love our four legged friends, but if your bringing the dog please include them in your booking. There's 3 rules that you must agree to if your bringing your dog.

1. Use the pooper scooper under the deck to move your dog's waste into the woods
2. Dogs are not allowed on any furniture or beds. The cleaning company will impose an additional cleaning fee, post checkout if there is evidence of such. Any stains, odors, damages will be assessed and charged an appropriate fee to repair
3. They must remain crated when you are not in the house. A medium size crate for a dog up to 50lb is available for your use in the 1st floor bedroom at the end of the hall

The live oak coffee tables in the living room are very expensive, please always use a coaster.

Even though we are a cabin in the woods, we still do have neighbors. Please be respectful and do not play music at a high volume. Party's or large gatherings are prohibited by Air BNB and will not be tolerated.

Absolutely no firearms are allowed to be discharged on our property. This holds true for fireworks as well.

Before you depart, please strip the beds of the linens along with all the towels you've used and place them in the laundry baskets in individual rooms.

Please ensure all lights and air conditioners are off upon departure and when leaving the property.
