Other Details to Note
🏡 Cabin Info & What’s Provided: – Starter Kit: Toilet paper, paper towels, dish/hand/laundry soap, garbage bags, detergent pods. – Linens & Towels: Provided based on guest count. Extra blankets in bedroom chests. – Kitchen Stocked: Cookware, dishes, utensils, basic tools. – Not Provided, please bring: Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, charcoal, ziplocks, foil, coffee, filters, sweetener, etc. – We have a Duo coffee maker that takes regular filters or K-Cups. People usually leave them behind, so you might not need them! 🌟 Instacart can be a convenient option for anything you might have missed. 🔒 Booking Requirements: ★ Rental agreement must be signed digitally within one hour of booking and is required for cabin access. The rental agreement is standard and covers the house rules. Upon request, the rental agreement may be sent for your review before booking. - All guests must be 25+ unless accompanied by a parent/guardian. ⚠️ Review the cancellation policy, pet policy, and house rules sections of the listing; consider travel insurance for unforeseen circumstances. ⚠️ The cabin sleeps 12 with 2 enclosed bedrooms, an open-air loft that is NOT an enclosed bedroom with full over full bunk beds, a sleeper sofa in the living room, and 2 large full-size bathrooms. Please consider your comfort and privacy needs to ensure the cabin meets your expectations. 🐾 Pets (Pre-Approval Required): - Max 2 small dogs, subject to breed/size approval. No other animals will be considered. Potty pads are prohibited. 👙 Hot Tub: - The hot tub is cleaned and sanitized between each guest. Guests may request a mid-stay hot tub cleaning for $65. 🔥 Fire Pit & Outdoor Amenities: ⚠️ Do not use the fire pit in windy/dry conditions, or when a burn ban is in effect (misdemeanor with a $2500 fine). ★ The outdoor shower is not available in the winter due to the possibility of frozen pipes. 🐻 Mountain Living: – Bears are knotty and smart; they know how to open unlocked car doors. Keep windows, doors, and trash receptacles locked. Keep all food inside the cabin. Damage will be your responsibility. - Keep shower curtains inside the tub to prevent costly ceiling/floor damage. – Critters may find their way in; we have regular pest control. You might find critters that didn’t survive and/or a few occasional live unwelcome guests. Please keep doors and windows closed. – TN homes are built for a moderate climate, HVAC may maintain mid-60s (winter) and mid-70s (summer) in extreme weather. Rest assured, our cabin and major components are newly built/installed, and we will address any issues promptly during your stay. - Power/internet outages, weather extremes, and spotty cell service are possible in the mountains. – The well requires power – if there’s an outage, water will stop once the tank runs dry. 📱 Cell service may be limited in some areas. Please download maps offline and enable Wi-Fi calling to avoid connectivity issues. 🚗 Mountain Driving: ⚠️Upon booking guest is required to acknowledge that All Wheel Drive (AWD / 4x4) could be required to reach the cabin in snow/ice (Oct-May). ▻ We strongly suggest winter tires or chains if snow or ice is forecasted, as they can significantly enhance traction and control and could be necessary on steep mountain roads. ▻ The cabin driveway is paved, flat, and can accommodate 6 vehicles (double parked). ▻ Roads are well-maintained and easy to navigate. 🌟 The first entrance to our street and the “S” turn seems like a nail-biter, but there is an alternate entrance to avoid this. Directions are provided after booking. ★ We recommend the purchase of Travel Insurance for all planned vacations. Travel Insurance will protect your investment in the event of weather that would make roads impassable to vehicles with 4WD.
