AMENITY WRISTBANDS: Wristbands must be worn while utilizing any community amenities. Please ensure all bands are left at the property upon departure. Lost or stolen wristbands will incur a $10 replacement fee per band.
PET POLICY: A strict leash law is enforced. Pets are not permitted in the beach, swimming, or boat dock areas. Guests are required to clean up after their pets immediately.
LAKE SAFETY: Swimming at the community lake is "swim at your own risk" and is only permitted within the designated roped-off areas.
WATERCRAFT: Personal kayaks and paddleboards are not permitted on the community lake. However, nearby Lake Harmony welcomes personal watercraft.
PROPANE POLICY: While we strive to keep propane available for the grill and fire pit, we cannot guarantee a full supply for every stay. If tanks are empty, please refill the existing tank and submit your receipt for a full reimbursement. Please do not purchase new tanks.
NATURE AND PEST CONTROL: Due to our beautiful rural setting, you may occasionally encounter small, non-harmful insects. We maintain professional, year-round pest control to minimize these occurrences.
WILDLIFE AWARENESS: Our home is located in a natural habitat where black bears are occasionally spotted. They are generally timid and stay away from humans; however, you must keep all food and trash securely stored to avoid attracting them.
Hot Tub Notice – Please Read
We strive to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene. Occasionally, if a previous guest hasn’t followed proper usage guidelines, we may need to drain, clean, and refill the hot tub before your stay for health and safety reasons. If this happens, please note that it may take until the evening of your first night (or slightly longer, depending on the weather) for the water to fully heat back up. We totally get that guests look forward to relaxing in the hot tub, and we only perform this maintenance when absolutely necessary to ensure a clean and safe experience for everyone.
