This is a rural location, so please review the map to better understand the location, and check our guidebook for local favorites. Because everything is 15-25 minutes drive, local towns, stores and sites requires a car. We recommend stocking up a bit before you get to the house for your first meal (if not eating out) and basics for the morning. There are some local wineries close by, but if you don't want to drive, many guests have brought bikes to get to the 2 closes ones which are about 2 miles away. Most local towns and shops have ample parking. Pleas do not hesitate to ask me for recommendations before your stay! We encourage you to roam the amazing 47+ acres of available land. We have Italian Honey Bees! They are in the middle of the field (see enclosed photos), clearly marked, and very docile! They will not bother you or anyone if you do not disturb the hive. In summer & fall, we recommend that you wear tall boots that ensure there is no exposed skin while you wander the property, and have a friend do a tick check before you go back into the house! The mosquitos can be brutal in the summer if there were recent rains. We have a lot of bug spray available and citronella candles, but please bring extra bug spray to ensure you are covered. The house is rural so the water is on a well system. It is perfectly safe to use, but it may seem very different from what you are used to. We have filtered water and ice in the refrigerator door, and an extra Britta filtered pitcher in the refrigerator for use for cooking drinking and coffee.
