Other Things to Note:
● The rental agreement will be sent to you once the reservation is accepted. Your booking is only confirmed once it is signed. Kindly complete it within 24 hours to secure your reservation.
● This property can host a maximum of 10 guests, including children and infants, per the local governing regulations.

● Eligible refunds are subject to a 6% processing fee.
● A damage waiver fee ($40) is included for all reservations. Most channels add this upfront. Others do not have this capability, and it will be manually added to the invoice once the reservation is confirmed.
● We provide enough essential items to cover stays of about 2-3 nights. If you need more supplies during your stay, you can visit one of the following nearby stores: Dollar General, ShopRite, Weis Markets, & Country Junction
● Given the rural setting of the property, occasional sightings of ants, spiders, flying insects, and mice may occur despite our year-round pest control efforts. We strive to manage these encounters to the best of our ability, but cannot guarantee that the house will be completely pest free.
● When drought, weather or other conditions present an unusual fire risk, a burn ban may be imposed by the local jurisdictions without prior notice.
● We do our best to ensure there is propane available for grills and/or fire pits, but cannot guarantee there will be propane for use throughout your stay. If all available tanks are empty, we ask that you refill a tank and provide a receipt for reimbursement. Note: be sure to refill/replace the existing tanks - do not purchase a brand new tank.
SECURITY CAMERAS / AUDIO RECORDING DEVICES:
● 1 doorbell camera at the main entry door

We very much enjoyed our stay. Beds are incredibly comfortable, great view and lovely neighborhood. Our only struggle with check in was the lack of a house number posted anywhere, either at the drive or on the house itself. We were arriving late at night, so really didn't want to startle anyone if we were in the wrong location!
