WE LIVE UPSTAIRS: This space is entirely separate with its own entrance. It is worth mentioning that Chili and I do live upstairs. We’ve never had any issues but thought it worth sharing upfront. There are two layers of soundproofing and insulation between the floors, and we provide a white noise machine for your added comfort.
ADDITIONAL GUESTS: If you have more than 2 in your group wanting to stay, we also offer camping in the field. There is a pull-out couch if you have one (possibly two) adults, or kids.
- Please ask if you’re interested.
HOSTED BY: Scott and Chili - dedicated to providing 5-star stays. We’re here to take good care of you!
***HOUSE RULES***
1. SMOKING ALLOWED, but OUTSIDE ONLY. You may smoke on the porch, but not in the house. Please keep the door shut. We will impose an additional $250 charge if we smell smoke inside after your stay. You are responsible for your butts.
2. Quiet hours after 10 pm to be good neighbors.
3. SHOES/BOOTS OFF in the house will keep the inside in top condition. This one is a big help!
4. We have a very sensitive septic tank. Please only flush toilet paper and, well, people stuff. We've had problems in the past and it's an ordeal to remedy.
5. Please FOLLOW CHECKOUT INSTRUCTIONS in the Guest Manual before departing.

Other things to note
