City advice

Getting around

Car Rental

It’s best to rent a car to be able to fully enjoy the area as there are no Uber or Lyft services here
What to pack

Bring comfortable shoes & Bathing Suit! (summer)

We’re in the country so heels are not needed! Would suggest a comfortable pair of hiking shoes (waterproof if you want to enjoy some of the creeks on hiking trails), as well as a pair of water shoes or crocs and a bathing suit if you want to enjoy swimming in the pond in the summer (it’s a natural pond and the floor has moss and rocks)
What to pack

Screenshot directions and house entry instructions

Wifi is spotty in the area, please screen shot directions and all necessary information ahead of time. You’ll be able to log in and have strong wifi once inside the house. If you’re out walking the property wifi is spotty
