First and foremost we want you to ENJOY OUR HOME and love your time here! In doing so, keep your karma clean and please treat our home with the same respect you would wish from others in your space. So that means...

• If you spill it, stain it or drop it, clean it up! (cleaning supplies providedunder kitchen sink, Bissel steam cleaner & vacuum in kitchen pantry)

• If you break it, let us know! We understand accidents happen, we want to ensure we can fix it/replace it for you during your stay or before your next visit with us. (No matter big or small- wine glass, toilet seat, TV)

• If you love it, leave it! Please do not indulge in stealing any artifacts from the home, including but not limited to kitchen supplies, wall art, pillows, blankets, games, etc.. carry out only what you carried in.

• Use it/play with it and then put it back where you found it! Please be mindful of where you take items from to use/play with and return them to their place. Keeping the house organized ensures your stay and everyones has the same wonderful qualities.

• It is very common to see wildlife on the property. Deer, Turkeys, ducks, squirrels, rabbits, etc. Additionally, the area is known for having bears and they love to rummage through trash and may be attracted to food left outside. There are appropriate bear boxes (wooden) provided with two 60 gallon trash cans. Failure to keep trash secured in the bear boxes or proper clean up of gas grills may result in a hungry black bear visit. We have had bears on the property go through the trash before.

•Trash is picked up on Tuesdays. (There is no recycling)

• If there is a mess of the trash, due to not utilizing the bear boxes appropriately, please clean up the mess otherwise you will incur additional cleaning fees.

• Ensure grills are cleaned and covered after each use.

• The winter months at the lake are filled with snow (yay!) but also may bring sleet and ice. Check the weather reports ahead of arrival.

• All Wheel-Drive vehicles are highly recommended in the winter months to access the home.

• Please leave all outdoor equipment (skis, boards, boots, sleds, snowshoes, etc..) outside the house. There is a provided rack on the front porch.

Outdoor furniture: If you move it from its original location, please put it back where you found it.

• There are a few rubber shoe storage mats in the coat closet to avoid trekking snow, salt, mud throughout the house.

Security:

• Wisp'd Away is outfitted with Ring security cameras and motion detecting lights all along the outside perimeter of the house and driveway.

Our 2 strictest policies:

1. No smoking inside the home (no marijuana, no cigarettes, no vaping, etc.) or within the 3.5 acres of woods. Should the property manager find the house to have been smoked in there will be an additional cleaning fee and complete forfeiture of deposit.

• If you do choose to smoke, please do so outside the home and ensure all ashes, cigarette butts and paraphernalia are cleaned up and removed. If there is even a hint of smoke in the house or smoking debris inside or outside your deposit will be withheld.

2. No parties allowed. Keep it respectful and fun, you know what a party is. Our neighbors are private homeowners who do not rent out their homes, noise travels farther in seclusion. If there is evidence of an ongoing party, we will call the police to check-in, you may be immediately evicted and there will be no refund for your stay and your deposit will be withheld.
