***This is 1 of 2 vacation rentals on the property. Bear Cottage is a basement unit and there is a separate vacation rental above called the Bird's Nest. Due to this being a basement unit, you will hear the guests above you if the upper unit is rented during your stay. We provide white noise machines and earbuds in both bedrooms. Each unit has its own designated parking area and private entrance. Both units are kept private and inaccessible from each other via two locked interior doors. The upstairs unit (The Bird’s Nest) is equipped with its own dedicated outdoor grill, firepit and patio. Bird’s Nest guests will not have access to the parking, outdoor grill, lawn, or the firepit designated to Bear Cottage. You will not have access to the hot tub upstairs!

Weather and Outages!

Please note: There will be no refunds in the unlikely circumstance that there is a power outage during your stay or if the weather is not cooperating. We do not have any control over the weather or outages caused by nature! We highly suggest you purchase travel insurance to be preventative in case something happens and you need to cancel.



Lady Bugs:

You may see some lady bugs in the home. Majority of the homes in this area have them. To stay ahead of this we are on preventative monthly pest control maintenance for all of our properties. Unfortunately they are still VERY hard to get rid of! Thankfully, they are harmless! But please know you will most likely see ladybugs in the home during your stay.
