Other things to note Important Information for Your Stay – Please Read Before Booking Our peaceful retreat is nestled in nature, backed by the mountains and surrounded by the sights and sounds of the wilderness. While we take great care to clean thoroughly between each guest, the natural setting means that occasional visits from local critters—like mice or bugs—are possible. If close proximity to nature isn’t your ideal, this may not be the best fit for your stay. Fireplace Use: Please note that the fireplace in the suite is not usable between May and October. Sprinklers for Fire Protection: In the hotter months, wildfires in the area are a possibility. To protect the property, sprinklers are set on timers and run for 30 minutes in each zone throughout the night. If you’re sensitive to nighttime noise, we provide white noise machines in both bedrooms and are happy to offer earplugs upon request. Pet Policy & Services: We’re happy to host your well-behaved pets! However, pets must never be left unattended in the suite. To support you during your stay, we offer doggy daycare and childcare from an ECE-certified caregiver—please inquire ahead of time to book. To preserve our lawn for all guests, please ensure pets do not use the yard as a bathroom. Pet urine can damage the grass. All potty breaks must be on-leash and off the lawn. Occasionally we may experience a power outage here in St Ives. We provide flashlights and battery operated lights for these events.
