You likely will see our neighborhood possum, squirrels, and deer family. Drive slowly and watch for them. We also have an indoor outdoor kitty cat that lives in lower level unit. Her name is Ava so don’t be surprised if you see her or if she is in her “she-shed” on side of the property ;)
Small electric grill located on back porch and with notice Weber grill in back yard available. We leave partially filled gas propane tank there but request all guests tell us when it’s being used. It is possible you’ll need to replace the tank if staying for longer than 3 days, or as needed, if you are big into grilling or barbecues.
