The flat, mulched path from your vehicle to the Perch is approximately 40 feet. It is suitable for about any vehicle to access (yes, even a Prius) and ample room for truck and boat/utility trailer to park. Other things to note Please note this is a rural/country environment. While guests find our area very peaceful, you may hear a passing vehicle/lawn mower from time to time, encounter wildlife and sounds common to country life such as a dog bark, woodpeckers pecking, a tractor, a dirt bike/4 wheeler, children at play or even hunting/target practice in the distance. While we offer most of the amenities of a standard American home, we do not have a dishwasher on property. To keep a sanitary environment, minimize critters and keep our cleaning fee low, guests are asked to wash the dishes they have used. There is a queen bed and 2 twins. A partition is between the sleeping areas, but no door. Per our insurance carrier, all guests must agree to hot tub waiver (sent upon booking). The hot tub is cleaned and chemistry is balanced and video documented daily. Time-stamped video footage is taken indoors just prior to each guest check in as well.
