Furry Friend Alert
As you arrive and throughout your stay, you'll likely be greeted by our friendly property dog. She's part of the welcoming committee and adds to the authentic country experience. Rest assured, she's well-behaved and used to guests, but we wanted to give you a heads up in case you have any concerns or are bringing your own pets.
Outdoor Living
Remember, country living means embracing the outdoors. You might encounter some friendly insects or hear the soothing sounds of nature at night. We provide a cozy indoor space, but we encourage you to spend time outside, whether it's having a morning coffee on the porch or enjoying an evening barbecue under the stars.

- Sturdy shoes for exploring
- Layered clothing (our weather can be variable)

- A good book or board games for relaxing evenings
- Your favorite snacks (though we're happy to recommend local markets)
