📢 SECURITY AND GUEST RESPONSIBILITY
For the safety and protection of our guests and property, outdoor security cameras are installed on-site.
📢 Please note that violation of any house rules—including but not limited to unregistered guests, parties, unapproved pets, illegal activity, smoking indoors, excessive noise, or disregard for quiet hours—may result in immediate cancellation of your reservation without a refund. Our neighbors are vigilant and may report any disturbances. We kindly ask that you respect the home, its furnishings, quiet hours, and the surrounding community to ensure a positive experience for everyone.
📢 POOL USE AND SAFETY
The private pool is available seasonally, from May 18 to October 1. It will remain closed outside of these dates. The pool is heated to a comfortable 80°F at no additional cost. If you prefer a warmer temperature (up to 85°F), we offer an optional heating upgrade for $50 per day. Please let us know in advance if you'd like to add this so we can have everything ready before your arrival. During the summer months (June through August), additional heating is usually not necessary, as the water naturally stays warm. While we’ll do our best to resolve any pool heating issues quickly, please note that refunds cannot be issued for intermittent malfunctions.
-Pets must be fully house-trained.
-Guests must clean up after pets; a $250 fee applies if this is violated.
-Pets should be crated indoors when no one is home.
-Pets are NOT allowed on furniture, bedding, or in the swimming pool and hot tub.
-Please note that only dogs are permitted.
📢 By booking, guests agree they are solely responsible for their own safety and that of their group when using any of the amenities—including the pool, hot tub, fire pit, swing set, and lake access. Use at your own risk.
