This is more camping than luxury hotel. Think camping but with a real bed, running water, and real walls and windows. Screen doors open and close all summer long! So you may experience an occasional ant, fly, spider, or mosquito. Its nature! That's why you come here and not the Hyatt Downtown! If that's what you're looking for, a nature experience with a little flair of luxury, we're your place. If an ant scares you, we are not the spot for you. Don't downgrade us if you find a bug! You read it here first!

There is no mechanical A/C! All natural breeze cooling, ceiling fan and space fan. A wood burning stove and lots of blankets if it should get cold out. You are almost one with the outdoors! Instead of a tent you have walls, windows and large sliding glass doors you can open to experience the fresh outdoor air and hear the owls, loons and coyotes at night!

There are no curtains on the windows because that would obstruct your view of the beautiful outdoors! You can look out Bathroom and Bedroom windows but unless someone can levitate or takes out a very tall ladder, they cannot see in.

Check in/out times are flexible. We have it set at check in between 5-10pm and check out at 11am. We understand folks want to enjoy our slice of heaven so early check-in or late check-out can be arranged depending on schedule and availability. We do our best to accommodate!

Fishing catch and release only please. Fish guts not allowed in our trash or yard. We like nature but maggots and flies .... not so much!

The bathroom on the main floor is a half bath. The full baths with shower and tubs are in the lower level. There are also many stairs to get to the lake. If you have trouble with stairs, this may not be the spot for you.

Pets are welcome. Pets are people too. The listed pet fee is per pet per stay for our four legged guests. If you have more than one pet, we’ll need to approve that in advance. Please let us know details of your pet when you make your reservation request. If deposits are left in yard, you’ll be billed. If you have a tendency to not pick up da poppy, this may not be the place for you.

Please wash all dishes used during your stay! Dish soap is provided. Do not leave dirty dishes in sink or on counters. All dishes used must be cleaned and returned to their appropriate spaces? If you use the dishwasher, DO NOT use the "heat dry" option. Plastic plates and glasses may melt. If dishes are melted from use of dishwasher, there will be a charge for replacing dishes. Be sure to check that "Heat Dry" is turned off. There are notes in the cupboard where the dishes are located. There are enough dishes for 12 people. It is not a bad idea to bring paper plates and compostable/recyclable silverware and cups. There’s a laundry. Please bring your own detergent if you intend to do your laundry during your stay.

There are two ovens. The top one has self cleaning. So if your dishes tend to overflow, we'd really appreciate you using the top oven and wiping up the overflow as best you can. Thank you. There's a dehumidifier in the lower level. If it gets too little humid or damp for you in the lower level, turn it on. It will pull the humidity out in no time!!

There's a fire pit. Bring your own dry wood. You may find plenty of wood around the property. However, it might not be dry. So best to stop at the gas station and get yourself a nice, dry bunch. We recommend getting some marshmallows, graham crackers and chocolate while you're there. Be sure fire is out before you head in for the night.

Use of property and any lake toys are at your own risk. Return them to their proper homes when you have finished.

If you're a small party of two using a small portion of the home, let us know. We can work a reduced cleaning rate for you. It's a big house!

Events including additional guests above the confirmed reservation must be approved. Event fees of $40/additional guest will apply. Inquire and approve before your stay. If day guests arrive during your stay that have not been approved, an added fee/guest/day will be assessed. This behavior may result in immediate cancellation of your reservation without refund as is consistent with Airbnb policy. We allow events that are discussed, approved and payment agreed upon prior to a reservation. We do not allow events that are a surprise and not discussed and approved of ahead of time. Communication is key.

Parking is limited to 5 cars. If you expect to have more, we need to discuss and arrange for alternative parking solutions. PARK on the gravel driveway. DO NOT PARK ON THE GRASS. And absolutely DO NOT park on the neighbors yard. There is a pink string along the property line. Tho shalt not cross the pink line! :-) We do not have room for trailers and there is no public access on our lake. If you plan to bring a boat and trailer for use on another lake in the area, discuss this at the time of reserving so we can help you plan and make this possible.

Other than that, have a blast! It’s a super cool spot!
