Arrival:
Please do not arrive earlier than your designated check-in time as cleaners may still be at work prepping the home to our best ability before your arrival.
Your access code to the home activates at your exact check-in time, therefore you will not be able to access the home earlier than stated. Thank you.
Secluded Location Info:
Our location is quite peaceful and remote, which we and our guests absolutely love. While there's a general store with essentials just 5 minutes down the road, you'll find restaurants and larger grocery stores a bit further out, around a 30-minute drive. Most of our guests bring their own food to cook in our fully equipped kitchen, but there are options around 15-30 min. down the road for larger grocery stores and restaurants/take-out. Local grocery store closes around 7PM - if you are arriving later than 4PM, we recommend you stop and grab groceries and other necessities before arriving.
Wifi: Starlink Internet
Wildfire Season Warning:
During the summer months when wildfire season is extremely high, PG&E occasionally shuts off the power for several hours. We do have a back-up generator that will kick on in these situations. We do not offer refunds in this situation.
Due to the dry summer season, the grass and landscape will dry up naturally with our limited rainfall in the summer season. We ask that you do not build your own fire on the property - you will be asked to leave with no refund. We take our dry season and fire preventative measures very seriously for the safety of our guests and community. Thank you for complying.
CANCELATION POLICY: Guests get a full refund if you cancel your trip up to 5 DAYS before your check-in date.
