We have prepared complimentary car wash supplies and covered parking to make your ride shine for the scenic cruise, the perfect shot, or the intense rally event. ★NATIONAL FOREST WILDLIFE★ As the property is immersed in the glorious forest ambiance, bugs and wildlife sightings are common! We suggest keeping the doors (cabin and cars) locked and food inside. Never feed the wildlife. Also, please be mindful of the poison oak that can be found within the area. Enjoy the lush ambiance and stay safe. ★CLEANING/COVID-19 SANITIZATION ★ Heath, safety, and wellbeing of our guests are of utmost importance to us. For this reason, we use a thorough and extensive process of cleaning after each check-out. ★ NATURE & CRITTERS ★ Being surrounded by trees and the beauty of the outdoors means occasional visits from nature’s tiniest guests. Ladybugs and other small insects may sometimes find their way inside—especially during seasonal changes. While we take every precaution to keep the home sealed and clean, these friendly reminders of nature are part of the cabin-in-the-woods experience. ★NO SHOES IN THE CABIN★ ATVs, dirt bikes, and rally cars can offer the experience of a lifetime. While we encourage you to get dirty and partake in these adrenaline-packed activities, we kindly ask you to respect our home by leaving the shoes outside and keeping it cozy and clean. ★ NO SMOKING INSIDE ★ Smoking and vaping are strictly prohibited inside the home to preserve a clean, fresh, and comfortable environment for all guests. If any evidence of smoking is found inside the property, a $300 ozone treatment and remediation fee will be charged to cover odor removal, air purification, and deep cleaning required to restore the home to its standard condition. ★ NO PARTIES OR EVENTS ★ Parties, events, and large gatherings are strictly prohibited. This is a private, peaceful retreat intended for relaxation and enjoyment of nature. Any unauthorized parties, excessive noise, or events will result in immediate termination of the stay and additional fees. We kindly ask all guests to respect the property, neighbors, and the tranquil mountain environment. ★PETS ARE TO BE APPROVED BEFORE BOOKING★ There is a $250 booking pet fee for up to two pets. If unauthorized pets are found on the premise or dog hair is found, there will be a $500 penalty fee. Feel free to contact us at any time so we can make the necessary arrangements. ✅ This property has requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1,000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $42 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional. To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots. Please note: Your guest portal includes advertisements with third-party upgrades that you may want to enhance your stay. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Your comfort and satisfaction are our utmost priorities, and we're here to ensure your stay is a tranquil and memorable experience.
