😴This is a peaceful lakeside neighborhood. Quiet hours are 9 PM–9 AM, which simply means keeping outdoor noise low during those times so everyone can enjoy the calm. Normal indoor use is always fine, and guests regularly mention how relaxing and quiet the area feels.

✅ Booking & Stay Requirements (For Everyone’s Protection)
To ensure a smooth and secure stay for both our guests and our home, we ask all bookings to complete the following standard steps after confirming a reservation:

• Rental Agreement & ID Verification
After booking, guests will be asked to sign a short rental agreement and upload a photo ID through our secure property management system. This helps protect both our guests and the home and is a standard practice for professionally managed vacation rentals.

• Refundable Security Deposit Hold
A temporary security deposit hold of $500 is placed on your card 2 days before arrival and automatically released 7 days after departure, pending inspection. This is a hold only, not a charge — similar to what hotels require at check-in.

These steps are in place to ensure a safe, respectful, and worry-free experience for everyone. If you have questions at any point, we’re always happy to help.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Great accomodations, clean and all needs were provided for. We were allowed to check in early and there was quick responses from the host when we had any questions. The location on the lake is lovely and would be wonderful in warmer weather. I highly recommend the property.
