THANKS! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Love the idea of camping, but really don't want to forego the heat/AC or the comfy bed? Well, the Pearl Airstream at Progress Park is made for the finest Glamping around! When staying in the Pearl, you get the best of both worlds. You can still have the outdoor experience, but have all the comforts of home. This 1989 Squarestream has been remodeled and updated for camping in comfort. It has every amenity you need to feel spoiled and relaxed during your outdoor adventure including a beach. Yes I said beach (just a short walk away)! Our goal at Progress Park is to provide an all-inclusive glamping experience. Pearl has a fully equipped kitchen including a stove, fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee pot with coffee, dry creamer & sweetener and all kitchen utensils. All bedding and linens will be included as well as a full bath with shower including bath towels. Toilet paper and paper towels are provided. The Pearl also has both heat and A/C, free wifi and a Smart TV with Netflix & Hulu provided. The dinette table converts to a double bed, the daybed includes a twin bed with a trundle underneath and the back bed is a full/queen. Pearl is in a cluster of 3 airstreams situated in a half circle alongside our smaller pond, near the bunk house. Each of the 3 airstreams in this area have plenty of room to social distance, all with their own covered patio, private firepits and grills. WATER FUN: Progress Park now has 5 Beaches! Each one is stocked with kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, & an assortment of life jackets. When renting the Pearl Airstream, you will be assigned to one of those 4 beaches, and share with other guests on site. The specific beach location will be shared with you in your check-in instructions. Each beach is just a short walk away and a wagon will be provided, to allow for transport of all your beach going supplies! A map of the property, detailing your private beach and fun features on-site, along with check in and check out info will be provided in your mailbox at the entrance. As mentioned there is a full bath in the airstream, but you'll also have access to two additional bathrooms (one of which is handicap accessible) on the side of the red bunkhouse next door. Both of those bathrooms are available to the guests of the bunk house, Gladys & Marie Airstreams. The decor of the Pearl is bright and cheery. Everything has been updated and improved. You'll truly not even realize you're in a camper. Relax on your covered patio, or enjoy a cup of coffee next to the pond. You can take a walk around the hiking trail on the perimeter of the property, go fishing in the fully stocked pond (catch and release only, bass, catfish, bluegill), or hop on a kayak/canoe/paddle board. Shuffleboard, volleyball and cornhole are right out your door, And whether it's summer, spring or fall, you can always end your day around the fire pit under the twinkling string lights to roast some s'mores and share your stories of the day. This airstream can comfortably sleep 5 adults. Possibly 6 adults, just depends on if you're up for sleeping 2 on the dinette. Definitely suitable for a small family of 2 adults and 3-4 kids. At Progress Park, we aim to provide an all-inclusive experience. You really don't ever have to leave the grounds, as everything you need is right there for ya. You bring your clothes, food and beach towels and we will take care of the rest! If you need to do some grocery shopping or realize you forgot something, just a mile down the road are all the conveniences you might need such as Kroger, Costco, Target, Starbucks and more. And if you have the urge to explore or partake in some top notch eats or spirits, the Highlands Neighborhood is just 5 miles up the road. The Highlands is a village area full of the best restaurants, shops, coffee bars and art galleries. You can even catch a yoga or fitness class. And if the staples of Louisville like Churchill Downs, Louisville Slugger Museum or the Urban Bourbon Trail interest you, those are all within minutes of Progress Park as well. The four of us (Mike & Val, and Nick & Karey) all live very close to the park and can help answer any questions about the area during your visit. NOTE: One thing to keep in mind is that you are immersed in nature, so our little bug friends are definitely around. I like to say that we are in their home, so if you don't want our lovely little insect friends in your camper, please keep the door closed when you're not inside, and make sure not to leave food out, whether inside or outside. Follow that motto and you will be just fine. PLEASE NOTE: Guests outside of those listed on your reservation are NOT allowed on property. For example, renting the "Grace" for 6 people and inviting 5 friends to come join you at the camp fire is NOT allowed. Guest access CHECK IN/CHECKOUT: We are unable to offer early check-in or late check-out. Our cleaning crew & property staff truly need every minute between guests, so the earliest you can access the property is 3pm and check out is no later than 11am. We appreciate your understanding. Thank you. CONCEPT: We are a Glamp-ground & event venue. We have 11 rental units available. That includes 2 big houses, 8 airstreams & a bunk house. To see all of our units available, check out the glamping tab on our site. It won't let us share the link here on Airbnb, but if you search Progress Park, Louisville KY, you'll find us. LOCATION: We have the most unique ability to provide our guests with an outdoor experience immersed in nature, that feels like you're far outside the city limits. But, we actually are not. We are still in the heart of Louisville metro, and close to all the city amenities. With that being said, we are still in the city, and a bit of an industrial area, so with that can come sounds of the city. We promise, as soon as you enter our gates, you'll have an instant calm and forget all your worries. Don't believe us, just read our 1,000+ 5 star reviews. WATER ACTIVITIES: Boating is offered from March-Nov. Water activities are not available Dec-Feb. We have 5 beaches on property. Guests from the 11 rental units will be spread amongst the 5 beaches. Each beach has its own set of boats, life jackets & paddles. Beach assignments vary depending on what bookings/events are taking place on property. You will be given your beach assignment with your check-in info, the day of arrival before noon. We ask that guests return their boats, paddles & jackets to the boat walls before checkout. We typically only have 1 staff member on beach duty and it is very hard for one person to retrieve and hang all the boats on their own. Thanks! WATER SAFETY: We only offer boating at Progress Park. We have found that having swimmers in the water combined with people paddling around isn't a safe combo. Boating is at your own risk. Anyone under 18 yrs of age MUST wear a life jacket when in the water, NO EXCEPTIONS to that rule. If a child is seen without a jacket, they will be asked to exit the water. A large variety of life jackets are provided at each beach, however we cannot guarantee your size will be available, so feel free to bring your own, especially if you have someone who isn't as confident in the water. Children must be accompanied by an adult from their group on property at all times. No water activities are permitted after DUSK or during bad weather. PETS: While we love animals, we do not allow pets on property. Thanks for your understanding. RESTROOMS: On the LEFT side of the property, the externally accessed bathroom located on the back side of the Lake House (red door with metal bath signs) is available to guests in the LAKE HOUSE as well as the GRACE & GIGI AIRSTREAMS located behind the lake house. On the RIGHT side of the property, there are 2 shared bathrooms on the side of the RED bunk house. Those are available to all 6 units on the RIGHT side of the property. There is a property map listed in the photos if you'd like an idea of the layout. GAMES: We have a variety of games & activities on property! This includes shuffleboard, Gaga Ball, Tetherball, Volleyball, Basketball, ladder golf, life size connect four & Jenga, a tree swing & a Playground. These activities are spread out around the property and are for everyone’s use. Please refer to the map for reference. PAVILION: Our pavilion also serves as a pickle ball court. It is available to guests on property when not being rented for a private event. First come first served. If a private event is taking place, you will be alerted and that area won't be available during that time. Signs will also be placed out to show if it's reserved. FIREPITS: Please do NOT move the firepit to any other location. It is placed in the spot it is in for safety reasons. If it rains, unfortunately you won't be able to have a fire, sorry. Please do NOT move the fire pit into the grass or on the patio under the awning. FIRE ASHES: Please DO NOT empty any fire ashes into any of the trash cans on property. This will cause a fire. FISHING: Catch and release fishing is allowed, in a safe distance from guests in the water. Guests must provide their own bait and equipment & children must be supervised. No license is needed. LINEN POLICY: Our linens, blankets & bath towels are not to be taken out to the fire pits or beaches. They are for use inside the units only. Please bring your own beach towels and blankets for the fire area. Thanks! DECORATING POLICY: If you decorate for any reason, please note that we DO NOT allow glitter or confetti of any kind, including balloons filled with either of those. If glitter or confetti is found, a $150 fee will be charged for additional cleaning/labor. TOILETS: Absolutely nothing other than toilet paper is to be flushed down the toilets, especially in the airstreams. No paper towels, wet wipes or tampons are to be flushed. They will clog the toilet and cause it to overflow into the camper. Thanks! COFFEE: Our coffee pots are standard 10-cup coffee pots with a carafe. You’ll be provided with 2-3 individual bags of ground coffee. Each bag will have enough for ONE pot of coffee. Sugar packets & dry creamer, along with coffee mugs are also provided. HOST AVAILABILITY: We want to ensure you have a great stay! We are available via the Airbnb app from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM. All messages sent ouside these times will be responded to the next morning. If you have a true emergency, please do not hesitate to contact us outside of these hours, and we will get back to you asap. AMENITIES INCLUDED: As part of our all-inclusive glamping experience you can expect for the following to be included in your stay: Free Wi-fi, all bed linens & bath towels, all kitchen supplies, paper towels/toilet paper, hand soap, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, coffee/creamer/sugar, access to kayaks, canoes & paddle boards, a wagon for beach supplies, an assortment of life jackets, s'mores skewers, a couple bundles of firewood, stick lighter, lighter fluid and 6-8lbs of charcoal for the grill (the 2 big houses have gas grills). Each area is outfitted with Adirondack seating, hammocks, firepits and picnic tables. Additionally, we also provide white noise machines in every unit to ensure a restful night's sleep, that you deserve so much! Bring your food, clothes, beach towels & sunscreen! We try to take care of the rest! BOOKING POLICY: We only book standard glamping stays through Airbnb with a max guest count that each unit allows for. For example if booking the lake house, it allows for 10 total guests and no more. We do host private events, larger gatherings or partial/full park rentals, but they are booked privately at an event rate. For that type of booking, you can submit an inquiry form on our personal site by clicking "book an event". EVENTS: It is possible that a private event could be happening on some portion of the property during your glamping stay. This could include the Lake House/Buechel Beach, the Pavilion/Point Beach, or the Event Center. We will inform you of any events that are already on the calendar at the time of your booking. It is a very spacious property though, and we've designed it to allow for glamping & events to co-exist, so there’s plenty of room for everyone to enjoy! SMOKING/DRUG POLICY Cigarettes, vaping or smoking of any kind must be smoked outside and butts disposed of properly, and NOT on the ground. A large majority of our property is covered with mulch and is a fire hazard. We do not allow smoking of any kind inside any of our airstreams or buildings on property, and the use of drugs, including marijuana is strictly prohibited. If smoke is detected inside the unit after checkout, a $150 fee will be assesed for additional cleaning/labor. INCLEMENT WEATHER: **In the event of inclement weather where taking cover would be necessary, the basement of the 502 House would be our safe place. If renting the 502 house, guests must be aware of this possibility. We are always improving our property and amenities, and this info is always subject to change, so please refer back to this info prior to your arrival date for any updates. Most importantly....HAVE FUN! Sincerely, The Progress Park Crew Registration Details 17ZONE1046
