Some properties may have water leak detection, natural gas leak detection, and/or a fire suppression system. The property is treated monthly for pest control and prevention to mitigate insects/pests. However, since this property is in the mountains, surrounded by forest, it is impossible to keep all insects/pests away from, and out of, the property at all times. The exterior of each property is protected with outdoor cameras covering front entrances, back entrances, parking, and/or property perimeter. There are no cameras inside any Drift Away®️ Luxury Lodging rental properties.
