WHO MIGHT I SEE ON THIS PROPERTY DURING MY STAY? 

The property managers may come by if there is an issue. The groundskeeper may show up as well to work on landscaping.

Western North Carolina is home to black bears. They are beautiful to watch, but should never be intentionally fed, and trash should always be secured during your stay. 

 

WHAT DO I DO WITH THE TRASH?

There is one large can for trash and one large can for recycling, located just inside the gate on the right side of the house. All trash MUST be bagged appropriately.

Trash is picked up every week on Wednesday. Please make sure that you pull the can to the end of the driveway so it can be picked up. Since we have bears please do not put the trash out until the morning and remove the carabiners that help keep the bears out. 

IS THERE WIFI?

Yes! The router is located to the right of the couch in the living room.
