Pool Heating: If you'd like to enjoy a warm swim or soak, we offer pool heating for an additional $100 per night. If you'd like us to heat the pool before your arrival, just let us know and we'll send someone on our team to do so in the morning. Please note, the pool can take anywhere from 5-10+ hours to heat up, depending on the outside temperature.
Please keep in mind: our pool is surrounded by beautiful nature, which can sometimes lead to leaves and twigs ending up in the water. On windy days, there may be more leaves than usual, but we do have a twice a week pool cleaning service to keep it in tip-top shape. We do keep a pool net there just in case you need to use it.

FAQ
- Why does the price change? We use dynamic pricing software that changes the rates from time to time
- Can you tell me more about this Noiseaware system? Noiseaware is a gadget that alerts us when the noise level has reached its threshold. This device doesn't record video nor audio, it only notifies of the noise level inside and outside the property.
Do you allow dogs/pets? Service animals may be accepted with appropriate certification provided to us and if approved by hosts. There is also an additional $250 pet fee associated.
- Do you have serving dishes and utensils for large groups of people? We do have enough utensils that can serve the 16 guests max.
- Do you offer 1-night stays? No, our minimum is 3 nights.

- Can you explain the heating of the pool rates? The price is $100 per day, so you just need to multiply the number of nights you're staying for this rate to get a price.

If you would like us to heat the pool in advance of your arrival, just add an additional $100 to this rate.
- Do you offer discounts on the heating pool rates? Unfortunately, we're not able to. Our rates are lower than the ones charged by most pool houses of the same size, many charges between $100-125/day so this is the best price we can offer.
