I'm a retired semi-pro distance runner; these days I enjoy hiking and road cycling for fun. I spend my free time learning about regenerative farming, and my goal is to start a farm-to-table caf

Notes

OUR HOSTING PHILOSOPHY
We set up the suite to host family & friends, and over time, began opening it up to the Airbnb community. When you stay with us, we'll treat you like family -- the only thing we ask in return is that you treat the space, property, and our neighborhood with the same level of respect by following our house rules. Every house rule we have was conceived for a reason out of a past experience we've had with guests. We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your cooperation.

BOOKING INSTRUCTIONS
In your booking message, please introduce yourself and mention:
+ The purpose of your trip
+ Any special requests/circumstances (e.g., will be sleeping during the day)
+ Requests for early check-in/late check-out
+ Communication preferences/limitations (e.g., don’t have the Airbnb App, wifi-only)
+ If relevant, accommodation request for pet(s)

PET APPROVAL & PET FEE
We can accept up to 3 well-behaved house trained pets on a case-by-case basis. Please introduce your pet companion(s) and tell us what measures you will take to help keep the space clean, prevent property damage, and ensure their safety. The pet fee is $50 (+$20/each additional pup, $50/each additional cat).

- Pets must be groomed, with their claws trimmed
- Pets must be supervised at all times, for their safety
- We are not able to accommodate dogs who bark often given our quiet rural setting
- We are not able to accommodate cats known to incur damage to furniture
- We provide extra pet sheets and towels to cover furniture during your stay. Please use them to minimize pet hair, etc.

Evidence of pets on furniture, pet waste left on property, pet messes/damage will incur additional cleaning fees.

OUR PRICING POLICY
We strive to offer the best deal in the area for travel lodging, which is not comparable to month-to-month or long-term rentals given lodging taxes and platform service fees. Our base nightly pricing varies between $92-129 based on seasonal factors and demand, and is otherwise controlled by the Airbnb algorithm. We ask you to consider this information before booking and also when prompted to leave a review for your stay.

We offer a weekly discount of 12% and more for longer stays. If you find a better deal elsewhere, please let us know!
