★ Important Things to Note★

- After you book: Please READ ALL COMMUNICATION we send you. It contains critical timely info for your stay (to avoid extra fees, delays etc.)
- See our House Guide link (sent in post-booking message) - it addresses most big questions, FAQs, and rules!
- Firm community guest registration policy: Rental App Form must be submitted 72+ hours before check-in. See "Other details to note" for info.
- The community has lots of amenities, including year round pool, lake, activities etc. Passes are available for guest purchase. Please scroll down to "Other details to note" section for list of amenities, pass pricing etc.
- Noise/Speeding/Rules: Due to prior disturbances, the community has become very strict. Please keep down any outside noise, especially after dark, and remember to respect the neighbors' comfort by the property, and in public spaces, as well as to adhere to the strict 25mph community speed limit. Fines are in the $100s, full responsibility of the guest, and can cause our ability to rent to be revoked indefinitely - Please, let's help each other avoid big problems. We appreciate your cooperation.
- Parking: The long driveway can easily fit guests' vehicles. Street parking is not allowed.
- NOTE: 6th sleeping area is NOT a bedroom - it is a (quite comfortable actually) fold out sofa that converts to 2 sleeping spaces, located on the loft. VRBO doesn't have a way to list it unless we do it as a BDR. Just want to clear any confusion pre-booking. The place is a 5 bed/3 full bath w. the extra 2 sleeping spaces in the loft.
