Wi-Fi is available at the home, but within 15 minutes of the house, internet is not accessible. Please refer to the guidebook before reaching home to access entry information.Please note that while you can swim in the pond, there is natural wildlife around the pond, including a family of turtles. Swimming is at your own risk.This house is in a rural environment and surrounded by countryside, farms and wildlife. While it’s wonderful to observe the eagles, deer, bears, and adorable chipmunks, it can also mean you will hear coyotes and foxes at night, and encounter the less cute mice, flies, snakes, ants, bees and ticks. There is very little to be done about it, but by keeping doors closed or screened and food in its appropriate storage, unwelcome guests will stay outside where they belong.We look forward to welcoming you to Fern Pond!A guidebook will be provided upon booking with a recommendations section for local eateries and places to visit during your stay.
