Other Details to Note

This is a high-end home designed for guests who appreciate quality finishes, designer furnishings, and a well-maintained space. The property includes a small, designated animal area with goats, chickens, and a pig. They are well cared for and contained within their own space, separate from guest areas. While you may see them during your stay, they do not interfere with your privacy or use of the home. The animal enclosure is secured with an electric fence for safety. It is low-voltage and not harmful, but guests should not touch or enter the enclosure. Children should be supervised at all times near this area. Events and gatherings are allowed with prior approval. The home is well-suited for intimate celebrations, corporate retreats, team offsites, wellness retreats, bridal photography, weddings and special occasions. Additional guidelines, guest counts, and potential event fees may apply depending on the nature and size of the event. A caretaker resides in a separate, private area of the property to help maintain the home and grounds. They will not interact with guests unless needed and do not impact your privacy. Due to the natural surroundings, guests may occasionally encounter wildlife and should be mindful of outdoor conditions. We kindly ask all guests to treat the home with care and enjoy all amenities responsibly, including the outdoor areas and hot tub.
