This is one of the "joys" of staying in an old country home and this should be considered a part of the experience without any additional expectations. The house will be pest-free when you check in, so please help us keep it that way by not leaving doors and windows open and properly discarding of food and trash. Unfortunately, if you fail to do this during your stay we will have to charge an additional fee for cleaning, if required. Additionally, you must keep the straps on the trash receptacle beside the garage on to avoid large animals from rummaging through the trash. This is not only an issue of cleanliness but also safety, as we do not want to encourage bears or other wildlife to look for food on our property. Additional cleaning fees will also apply if trash is not properly secured and managed. ***** Sauna Safety: -Only guests aged 18+ may use the sauna. -Consult a doctor before using if pregnant or experiencing health conditions affected by heat and humidity. -Do not use the sauna while intoxicated or under the influence. -No food or drinks allowed inside the sauna. -Use provided sauna towels on benches. - Limit use to 15-20 minutes per session.
