Important Booking & Event Policy (How You Save 14% on Taxes)
This historic estate is operated as a dual Hotel Accommodation & Private Event Venue. To pass significant savings directly to our guests, we split your stay into two distinct components:
💰 Why We Separate Lodging & Venue Rental:
By billing the venue rental separately via a direct contract rather than bundling it into your Vrbo lodging total, you save approximately 14% in local and state hotel taxes on your venue fee!
1. Overnight Lodging (Billed & Taxed via Vrbo)
Includes: Full overnight accommodations for up to 16+ guests across both floors, bedrooms, bathrooms, and standard stay amenities.
Billing: Nightly lodging rate, cleaning fee, and applicable local/state hotel taxes processed directly through Vrbo’s secure checkout.
2. Private Venue Rental (Billed Directly via Separate Contract — Tax-Free)
Includes: Access to host day/evening events for up to 80 guests, use of the private court, lawn grounds, law library/billiard room, theatre space, and event setup/breakdown hours.
Billing: Non-taxable venue fee invoiced directly by management upon booking confirmation (saving you 14% in hotel tax on this portion).
Requirements: All stays require a signed Supplemental Venue Contract and proof of a $1M Special Event Liability Insurance Policy (naming the estate as Additional Insured) submitted prior to check-in. We provide a direct link to make securing insurance quick and easy ($125 - $175 via providers like The Event Helper).
Venue Rental Rates (Billed Separately)
In addition to the Vrbo overnight lodging rate, a separate non-taxable venue fee applies and Venue rental fees vary based on the day of the week, season, advance booking window,
