GUEST ACCESS
Total Privacy, Effortless Entry, Resort Style Freedom
Your cottage is completely private with its own secure entrance along a lush garden path. We program the last four digits of your cell into both keypads — one at your garden gate and one at your front door — for seamless, keyless access.
You’re welcome to enjoy the salt water pool (clothing optional), gas grill, and outdoor dining area, all shared with — but rarely used by — your hosts. These areas are accessed through a double door gate off your patio, which you may keep open or closed for complete privacy.
There are no other guests on the property during your stay, and no security cameras in the Cottage, patio, hot tub, or outdoor shower areas — your private oasis remains entirely your own.
The Cottage is designed exclusively for two adults. Due to insurance restrictions, we cannot host children or pets.
