The Space:
Our home caters to both short term and medium term stays, making it an excellent choice for corporate housing needs. Whether you find yourself temporarily displaced from your home or require accomodations for your team during an extended project in our area, we provide a welcoming and comfortable "home away from home" experience.

As you step through the front doors, you’ll be greeted by the stunning grand entry and its magnificent staircase! With warm pecan wood tones, it evokes the charm of the iconic Beauty and the Beast castle staircase. As you explore the rest of the house, you’ll discover that every room surpasses the last in beauty and elegance.

For those looking to host a large gathering or celebrate a milestone event—whether it’s a wedding, anniversary, or birthday—we also offer a nearby standalone party venue for rent. With space to accommodate 80 guests and parking for up to 25 vehicles, this breathtaking venue features picture-perfect backdrops: a grand staircase, sparkling chandeliers, waterfront boardwalks, and a tranquil forest setting.

Other Things to Note:
★ SAFETY DEPOSIT OR DAMAGE WAIVER REQUIRED ★

We understand that accidents can happen. To help protect the space and ensure a worry-free stay, all reservations require either a damage waiver or a safety deposit.

You can choose the option that works best for you: a non-refundable damage waiver ranging from $29 up to $69, which covers accidental damage and normal wear and tear (no deductible) or a refundable safety deposit of $450, which will be returned after checkout as long as no damage is found and all house rules are followed.

If you’ve already purchased Damage Protection Insurance through a third-party provider, feel free to share your policy with us—we’re happy to review it and we may consider waving the requirement based on your coverage.

Please note: The damage waiver does not cover damage caused by house rule violations.

We have one fireplace at the office that is gas operated. Please only use this fireplace if you are familiar with how to use it properly and be aware that you are doing so at your own risk. Please DO NOT leave it unattended at any time. We also have two fireplaces on the living room and kitchen that are wood burning.

★ NOISE LEVEL MONITORING ★

No WiFi & Entry was difficult

The cleaning crew locked the front door from the inside so the entry code did not work. It took almost an hour to enter property. The Wifi was out meaning no TV, No Internet, No Video games system.
