Evidence that the animals were left behind will result in the pet fee being charged.

CANCELLATION POLICY Our rental contract will specify that GUEST can cancel at any time regardless of the Airbnb cancellation policy. If the GUEST cancels the reservation MORE than 48 hours after the initial booking (provided it is LESS than 14 days prior to arrival), the rent & host fees paid minus a $75 administrative charge may be refunded if the same or partial dates are re-rented. If re-rented for lesser amount, the difference will not be refunded. We highly recommend you purchase travel insurance to cover any losses.

NOISE ORDINANCE: This is a family home. We encourage our guests to have fun, but please be respectful of our very sweet neighbors and keep the noise to a minimum at all times. We are surrounded by full time residents who we love and who love us, and appreciate their peace and quiet. We ask that you keep outdoor music family friendly and at appropriate levels as to not disrupt peace and quiet of the neighborhood. Everyone should be indoors by 10pm.

SECURITY CAMERAS We have a ring doorbell and 3 exterior cameras that will record audio & video upon motion detection for up to 2 minutes. Ring doorbell is at front door, cameras are located at the following locations: one at the end of the drive way on , one on the back deck and one on the Lower Patio area. There are no cameras inside the house. We have 3 home temperature sensors (1 in the hygge bedroom, 1 in the family room and 1 in the basement rec room). These help our thermostat maintain a more even temperature in the house. They do not record audio or video.

WILDLIFE & MAINTENANCE Our home is in a rural residential neighborhood with large lots and a lot of wildlife. You will often see deer roaming the streets and our property, squirrels, hawks, lizards and sometimes snakes in the front and back yard. Please do not feed or approach any wildlife. There will be a lot of insects, bugs and other creatures that give the property its wonderful relaxing country feel. We have pest control & mosquito treatments every 3-4 weeks. While we stay on top of pest maintenance, we ask you to expect that bugs may enter the home when doors are left open, get tracked in on shoes and luggage and are part of life in the country. If you have allergies to bees, please be aware there will likely be bees buzzing around. There will not be any refunds or cancellations in regard to normal bugs & wildlife. We appreciate your understanding of this.

SAFETY CONSIDERATION: The entire back yard is NOT fenced. Please use a leash at all times or bring a pen for off leash outside lounging for your dog & keep track of droppings & pick up & dispose immediately. Pet bags are provided for your convenience. Be aware of deer and other wildlife in the area and do not leave dogs unattended.

OTHER: In case of a power outage, there are multiple USB rechargeable lamps in bedrooms and flashlights, that can be used during an outage. Power outages are rare. We will provide you with any notifications we receive from the utility company. We appreciate your understanding if this happens during your stay.
