Feel free to use the umbrellas on the property but you must turn the handles and collapse them each time after your use to avoid them being damaged by storms and wind when no one is outside to notice that they were left open. If they are damaged because you left them open and unattended, then you will be charged for a new umbrella.

To purchase travel protection or CFAR, please go to this link: StayInTn.RentalGuardian.com and use the "Purchase Coverage Now!" button to buy either Travel Insurance or Cancel for Any Reason (CFAR) insurance under "Select Type of Coverage" dropdown.
Please Note: Travel Insurance must be purchased at the time of booking and/or 30 or more days from the scheduled trip departure date (ie. usually the same as the Check In Date).
Note that if you buy CFAR you get regular Travel Insurance included, so no need to buy both.
CFAR restrictions:
Inside noise is generally not an issue. Outside for the most part is not an issue either usually. That being said, any outside activities need to be planned between the hours of 8 am And 10 pm in relation to noise. Outside quiet hours are enforced outside of this time frame, excluding the private hot-tub patio area on the side of the house.
Also, note that our kitchen is on the other side of the door to the game room. At times you may hear our children through that door/wall - especially in the morning or at mealtimes. To keep from being woken up by that noise, please shut the door between your living area and hallway, shut your bedroom doors, and as an extra precaution we've provided a fan in your room that you can use for white noise.
If we can hear your music or noise 100 feet away in our bedroom, then it is too loud and we will ask you to lower the volume and/or cut down the bass.
Violations of this policy could result in the loss of any security deposit you have with us and may result in us asking your group to leave at the time of the violation.
We have White Noise Generator Devices in some of the Room Ceilings to help you have a better experience. If the devices are bothering you and you’d rather have 1 or more of them turned off, please just send us a message and we’ll turn them off for you.
Two times the number of beds.
Sofa counts as 1 unless pulled out as a sleeper sofa - then it counts as 2 - i.e. 10 (plus 4 extra - i.e. 14).
For any number of people over 10 on the property (inside or out) (day or night), we require our pre-approval and your booking/event likely will fall under our Large Event Policy (please reach out to us before your check-in, if this is the case) (we do allow large events with prior approval).
We do monitor how many are on the property by several video devices around the property (not within the building).
The maximum occupancy that we ever allow (with exception) for inside the building (at any given time) is 14, and we charge $25 per person per night over 10 people.

Select MAININTERNET-2.4GHZ open wireless (no passcode needed).
For most short stays (less than 3 days) trash doesn't accumulate too much before check-out so don't worry about it taking it out to the trash cans.
Please note that we have limited trash service so we ask that you separate out cardboard, paper, and burnable items (not plastic). There should be a burnable trash receptacle in your villa.
For all stays, we take care of the trash when we clean, after you've checked out. If your trash is getting out of hand before your check-out, or you just want to dump it, please note that non-burnable trash can be put in the trash cans in the NorthEast corner of the main building structure - East side of the garage.
Please do not put the trash into the two cans in such a way that the lids will not close, as this encourages critters to get into it, and the next morning your trash will be all over the property.
Please place burnable trash into one of the two long beige rectangular plastic bins that are against the house adjacent to the garage parking area in the back.
Trash pickup is on Mondays in the morning.
We recommend Kroger and googling or using a gps/map function on your smart phone to get there.

SMOKING is NOT allowed anywhere inside the property!

Then turn left (South) and walk over the creek. Then go left (East) again and you will see a fire pit area. This is the designated smoking area. You can put any cigarette remains in the fire pit.
No smoking in the house, on deck or near the house. Our kids have asthma and can’t have the smoke smell wafting around the property, especially to the back part of the property where they play. Respect us and our guests desire to not smell smoke on the property.

Realize that bites may come from chiggars, or other pests.

We wash all linens and bed covers each time and dry with high heat to kill any pest that my be living there.
We treat your bed as if it were our own. If you suspect a bed bug problem, keep any evidence of them and notify us immediately.
