Maximum occupancy per cottage is 8 people including children. Maximum occupancy per lodge room is 4 people including children. Maximum occupancy per tiny cabin is 2 people including children. The rate will be based on persons 12 years and older. A violation of this rule will result in the forfeiture of your rental fees and you will be asked to leave.

Once a reservation is made, we will email a lease agreement to you. You will need to return a signed copy of your lease along with an advance rent payment equal to one night’s rent per cottage or lodge room. Your deposit may be paid by check or credit card. If the deposit is paid with a credit card we will add an additional fee of 4% to the deposit.

You will not receive a confirmation of your reservation until the lease agreement has been returned to us.
