Guest Access
All areas of the house are accessible for guests. Any excess supplies are strictly off-limits unless permission is explicitly given to the guest.

The home is located in a historic "hamlet" called Safe Harbor Village, built in the 1930s. The neighborhood is extremely peaceful and quiet. There are sidewalks all throughout the village, walking trails in the nearby forest, and a local park across the street. Both vehicular and pedestrian traffic is minimal.

Things to Note:
• Pet fees must be paid prior to arrival and noted on your reservation.

Everything was great. Comfy beds and nice kitchen with all the cookware you need. The yard is nice and big with plenty of deer roaming the property. I would definitely stay again.
