IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE
Our area and neighborhood, including our house, were devastated in a wildfire in 2022. Due to this, there is still some construction on our street that you will pass by on your way to our home. We have stayed in the home multiple times and the nearby construction has not affected our stay due to the distance away from the house.
BEARS & WILDLIFE
DO NOT FEED, interact or get close to bears or other wildlife. DO NOT LEAVE ANY OPEN FOOD OR TRASH on the decks, front porch, or cars. Also make sure all car stays remained locked while at the home.
BUGS
In the Smokies, Japanese Beetles (like lady bugs) and stink bugs often find their way into homes looking to escape the cold during fall and winter. While our home is thoroughly vacuumed and cleaned between stays, it is likely you will still encounter them during your stay. The Japanese beetles like to hangout in windows and window seals, and we have a lot of these! You are most likely to encounter them in the main living area. Other unwelcome critters may also find themselves into the home for the same reason.
WEATHER
Although it is rare for snow to impact the area, it does happen from time to time. Please plan accordingly by preparing food supply and having 4wd/AWD is there is snow or ice anticipated during your stay. NO REFUNDS will be given due to weather conditions. We offer travel insurance to protect against this rare occurrence.
OUR HOME IS A NON SMOKING HOME. IF THERE IS EVIDENCE OF SMOKING IN THE HOME DURING YOUR STAY AS $500 SMOKE REMEDIATION FEE WILL BE CHARGED.
