Hello , and welcome . I have a full DETACHED small one bedroom home on my property .
There was an electrical update a few years ago .
NO PETS , allowed , no exceptions .
NO MARIJUANA , none .
I have both a STILL and VIDEO Camera for arrivals in violation of rules .
I do talk to and interview guests upon arrival .
I am pondering , going to INSTANT BOOKING . I have not in the past for personal reasons .
I want to address this one particular item completely . I do not want EXTRA people showing up here in excess of the amount of people booked here . They are not covered by any insurance . If you do show up with more than booked [ 2 maximum , kids are an exception , ONE child ] I am going to insist extra payment be received .An immediate payment , as this individual was not booked initially I will call the site immediately and expect your payment before entering facility . I will charge a minimum of 70 dollars per night . A child is considerably less, but is charged as well . I say this firmly and as kind as I can , no extra persons here that have not been booked , initially at booking time . EXTRA FEES WILL BE CHARGED or entire party, politely asked to leave . I have had many bring extra people in the past . No more , My kindness is not weakness . I live on a septic system here . Thank you
The following , adhere to please .
I STERILIZE THE PROPERTY WITH MINIMUM 70% ALCOHOL MIXED WITH FRAGRANCE . I also use aerosol disinfectants .
THERE IS NO LATE OR NEXT DAY BOOKING , PLEASE . I am not going to be rushed to facilitate you without a vetting process via email . Even upon instant booking , I want reasons why you are staying here . Please .
You must state why you want to rent the property in your initial request . If you do not , you will be asked again . If no information and reasons , again , I will decline booking . I do not need a life story , but motivation for booking is required . Fair and equitable .
Also , if you want to stay longer , it is through the site , if I APPROVE , not on your own assumption or asking , as the liability insurance minus the site would not apply . I will then review your prior time here . This is not a rental it is a vacation stay . Again , . this is not a long term rental . This is fair . Thank you .
I want your stay fun and peaceful. I am simply firm with these things . This is a private property .
There is NO 4:20 friendly here .In other words , NO MARIJUANA . I am diametrically opposed to marijuana , even if it is legal , statewide .
I had a family emergency , but it is dissipating . This place is very nice and private , relaxing as well . There are Elk about , in my yard , frequently and Mule deer and I have a Whitetail Mom and baby , at times . No getting close to Elk , as I will tell you , if they are in my back yard , they are beautiful . However , I allow no approaching , they are huge and have the propensity to run you over .
A beautiful property , just past the Devil's Backbone close to the Big Thompson River , outside of Loveland , on the way to beautiful Estes Park . There are Elk , deer , an occasional Mountain Lion scream at night , and in Spring and Summer , Black bears that are docile and timid , but that frequent the area . If bears are located , near property , guests will be provided a SAFE view from main house , only . Division of Wildlife officers assess , a 100 lb black bear is stronger than any human . So , I ask complete compliance with no wandering around property . I will allow walking in the back area , with proper instruction , if an incident occurs [ they do not on the usual ] , I want you to know , I am not liable and no liability , having warned you of the dangers of wildlife , previously . Please do not simply walk back there , you must ask FIRST to proceed to back area .
I need to reiterate that I do not allow pets . Please , NO PETS ALLOWED . I love animals, but it is not set up for this , especially if a guest leaves a pet alone while sight seeing , or whatever the circumstance during the day or night , a pet is alone in new environment and traumatized . My facility will not bear responsibility for that . I have recurring yearly guests that need a pet and dander free environment .
The home is a small unit , gas forced air . It is warm in Winter . New A/C for the SUMMER . Complete with washer / dryer , full bath with tub and shower , a great bedroom , Queen sized bed , a living room with a fold out futon in living room . I have been told the futon is very comfortable . Complete kitchen ware , micro wave COMPLETE KITCHEN , too . What I lack in home , please ASK .
I ask this very politely [ again ] , If you book with 2 people total , please keep that number on premises. I have had several that have brought people in over night , AFTER booking . This is not acceptable . I feel it is a compromise of my good nature and a lie . Okay ? The unit is small and on a septic system . So , please .and thank you . As I said above , immediate disclosure of extra patrons and PAYMENT or immediate departure for ALL guests . I will prorate time spent here . Refund the remaining amount . You stay here prior to BOOKING .
There is always a 300.00 deposit . I have NEVER kept anyone's deposit . If there's damage , of course, but to date , no .
Feedback ? Thanks
