Or go out and take a walk up the the acre of undisturbed private land right behind the home. Throughout the property, you can hear the nearby rushing creek, reminding you to take it all in. Wifi is via an over the air signal as opposed to a hard line and can be spotty at times. It’s generally strong enough to stream and ‘work from home’ on but we cannot guarantee its signal strength/function at any give time. Pets are welcome for an additional cleaning fee.

Treat it as a hiking trail, and use caution accordingly. Other things to note You may run into the neighbor’s mid-size dog named Max who sometimes wanders onto the property. Please do not feed or pet him. Driveway: like most mountain homes, it is steep. However, most vehicles do not have a problem getting up and down because our driveway is short. Low-to-the-ground cars may prefer to do a 3 point turn at the top and go down the entrance. Not suited for motorcycles (unless you park in the grassy area at the bottom of the hill on our property) For the security of our guests and property, we have external security cameras at the front and side door entrances. The cameras cannot see inside the house. They record video and audio of the driveway, deck, and street. The cameras will be on during your stay.
