◆◆◆PLEASE NOTE:◆◆◆
This community requires us to register guests 48 hours in advanced. So we cannot accept any bookings without 48 hours or more notice. So if you are planning to book, you cannot wait till the last minute to do so.
◆◆◆Staying in the Pocono Mountains◆◆◆
If this is your first time visiting the Poconos, we want to ensure you understand what staying in the mountains entails. This house is nestled in the mountains, surrounded by trees and nature. As a result, you may encounter wildlife, as this is their home and we are merely guests. Wildlife may include flying insects, spiders, ants, squirrels, flying squirrels, mice, foxes, raccoons, opossums, skunks, snakes, turtles, coyotes, and black bears. Smaller creatures and insects can occasionally find their way inside depending on the outside conditions. We have monthly exterminator visits to minimize this, but being in the mountains, anything is possible.
Additionally, the mountain infrastructure differs from that of the city. Small wind or rain storms can occasionally cause power or internet outages in specific areas, including our home. Power outages may affect the water supply as we are on wells and the well pumps need power to work. Usually, these outages are restored within 8-10 hours, which is a quick turnaround given the weather conditions. For outages lasting less than 24 hours, no refund or compensation will be provided. For outages exceeding 24 hours, compensation will be issued on a case-by-case basis.
Lastly, please be aware that extreme heat or cold waves can put stress on the house's heating or cooling systems, and these systems may struggle to keep up during very high or very low temperatures.
◆◆◆Winter Bookings◆◆◆
During winter months, it is highly recommended to have a vehicle with All-Wheel Drive (AWD) or 4x4 capabilities due to potential heavy snowfall.
◆◆◆Supplies◆◆◆
We provide a starter pack of household essentials (paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, dish detergent). If the property includes a dishwasher, washer, and dryer, we also provide cleaning agents for those. Guests staying for longer durations or with larger groups should bring additional supplies. Personal toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash), q-tips, deodorants, or other personal care products are not provided.
The house includes cooking ware (pots, pans, plates, utensils, baking dishes), but guests need to bring personal grocery items (seasonings, flour, sugar).
◆◆◆Pet Rules◆◆◆
Keep Dogs Leashed: Dogs must be leashed at all times while outside.
No Overnight Outdoor Stays: Do not leave your dog outside overnight.
Clean Up After Your Dog: Please pick up after your dog when it goes potty.
Keep Pets Off Furniture: Please keep pets off human furniture.
◆◆◆Community Information◆◆◆
We are located in a private gated community that requires a guest registration form for security and emergency purposes. The form will ask for full names and ages of each guest, as well as vehicle and driver information, including the main registrant's license ID number and the plate numbers of all vehicles entering the community. Names on the forms must match the legal ID of the driver.
◆◆◆Pool Disclaimer◆◆◆
Use of the pool is at your own risk. The property owner and management are not responsible for any accidents, injuries, or loss of personal property that may occur while using the pool or surrounding area.
◆◆◆Fire Ban Disclaimer:◆◆◆
Please note that outdoor fires may be restricted during local fire bans, which can be enacted at any time due to weather conditions such as high winds or dry spells without notice. Guests are responsible for checking current fire regulations and adhering to all posted signage during their stay. During an active fire ban, use of the fire pit, outdoor fireplace, or any open flame is strictly prohibited. Violations may result in fines and immediate cancellation of your reservation without refund. We appreciate your cooperation in keeping the area safe from wildfire risks.
