Good to know

Our 2 bedroom 2 bath guest suite is a separate private unit located at the basement of the house (lower level windows in the photo). Note: For larger groups, we also offer the full house (separate listing). In any case, you will be the only group staying at the property and have the entire outdoor spaces to yourself. We have a hammock and two swings as well as a fire pit. The main deck has patio furniture, outdoor dining table, and a charcoal grill. Please note that the kitchen has an electric stovetop and a microwave but no oven (due to county restrictions). There is also a fridge, dishwasher, toaster, French press/Nespresso coffee maker in the kitchen area.

Accessibility

Neighborhood

We are part of Thunderbird Farms, spread across the hills, governed by a property association. Some roads are privately maintained by the association. They are in great shape! Our neighbors are friendly -- you will rarely hear them but you might hear their dogs. Other neighbors include birds, deers, feral cats, bears, hares, beavers and so on!

Guest Access

You can park in front of the house. Just please make sure garage doors are not blocked. **Please Read** Getting to the guest suite requires either walking through the (sloped) backyard grass or through the deck, which includes two short flights of stairs. Guests with limited physical abilities should consider this. Feel free to reach out if you have specific questions! Detailed check-in instructions will be provided closer to your check-in date.

Great hosts, perfect location for visit to NP. Quiet area. It exceeded our expectations. Great beds made for a good nights sleep after a day of hiking. Not a thing.

The entire property is beautiful, but the good taste in decoration is definitely worth to mention! Every room is carefully designed to make it cozy and elegant at the same time. Kitchen is very well equipped, and one of the best we have seen in rental properties. Great location and rear view! Our only suggestion is to have a mirror in the living room.

A wonderful unit with literally everything you need. All that a house has and more. Wide open view to the mountains and forest. Owners are very communicative and helpful. We stayed for 3 nights. Loved it and loved the area.
