OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
If you are bringing kayaks, paddleboards, or canoes, please note that the Fox River is prone to strong currents that may make it challenging to paddle upstream. Due to the shallow nature of the river, we do not advise the use of motorized watercraft.
If you plan to bring a pet we do charge a fee. To avoid fines, please ensure your pet has been added to your reservation. Notify our team to include this information if your pet was not added during the booking process. It`s $300 per pet per stay to bring them along.
For the safety and security of our guests and the neighborhood, there are external security cameras in the following locations on this home:
