Designed from the studs up for groups, families, and getaways, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat pairs a striking floor-to-ceiling window wall and soaring cathedral ceilings with everything you need to unwind: a fire pit under the stars, a classic arcade cabinet, and the woods at your doorstep. 🌲
🛋️ The Space
The main level is a true open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, anchored by a stacked-stone gas fireplace, a smart TV, and a dramatic wall of triangular windows that pulls the forest right into the room. ☀️ Cathedral ceilings and modern light fixtures keep things bright and airy, and a large sectional plus a loveseat give everyone a comfortable place to land.
🍳 The Kitchen
The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for everything from morning coffee to a full Thanksgiving spread:

🪨 Brand-new granite countertops and a granite breakfast bar with seating for four
❄️ Stainless steel Samsung French-door refrigerator with water dispenser
🔥 Electric range and oven, microwave, dishwasher, toaster oven
☕ Keurig coffee maker plus a standard drip kettle
🍽️ Full set of cookware, bakeware, dishes, glassware, and utensils

The dining table seats six comfortably, with additional seating at the breakfast bar — so you can host the whole crew without anyone eating off their lap.

Smart TVs in the main living area and bedrooms.
🔥 Outdoor Living
The lot is private, wooded, and feels secluded — but the outdoor space is built for entertaining. 🌳

🚣 Kayaks on site, free for guests to use — carry them down to the Locust Lake Village community lake and paddle for the day. Please rinse them and return them to the house when you're done.

‼️Important House & HOA Rules:‼️

⚠️ Locust Lake Village (LLV) Registation Fees⚠️ (Collected separately from the reservation)
🔴 $35 per reservation. Paid prior to the reservation.
📌 Please note that the $35 HOA registration fee only covers your registration with the community.

⚠️ This is an HOA community requiring us to submit guest's info THREE (3) DAYS prior to arrival.
⚠️ Any changes to reservation details including number of occupants, additional vehicle, swapping of vehicle, and additional guests cannot be made within THREE (3) DAYS of arrival date as HOA is very strict on this. (No exemptions)
⚠️ Guest(s) of a Renter count towards your property's occupancy limit
⚠️ HOA late fee will apply if registration is not completed at least THREE (3) DAYS prior to arrival
📌*Car/Trash Pass: After completing HOA registration, guests will receive a confirmation email with a copy of their car/trash permit. Please PRINT the permit prior to arrival, as this will allow you to proceed directly to the house.
📌*Wristbands: Wristbands are mandatory for all individuals 12 years old and above. These are used for identification and access to the community, amenities, or facilities and must be worn. DO NOT DISCARD and please make sure that all wristbands are left at the property after each stay. If wristbands are lost or stolen while staying at our home, there is a $25 replacement fee per band.
⚠️ Trash Disposal: Locust Lake Village (LLV) uses a centralized gated trash compactor, not individual house pick-up — please display your Trash/Parking pass for easy access. Due to active bear activity, trash may never be left outside.
📌 Guests are fully responsible for bagging and removing all trash and recycling from the property. Failure to properly dispose of or remove garbage may result in an additional fee or fine.
📌 All trash must go in a bag before it's placed in the compactor — no loose trash allowed (except recycling).
📌 Recycling (paper, metal, glass) goes in the separate recycling compactor. ❌ Plastic bags are not allowed in recycling — they can jam the compactor.
📌 Trash facility: 202 Martha's Lane. Hours: Mon/Fri/Sat 7:30am–3:30pm, Wed/Sun 9am–5pm, Holiday Mon 9:30am–5:30pm — closed Tue/Thu and on Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas & New Year's Day.
📌 If checkout falls on a closed day, take your trash to the compactor the day before.
⚠️ Disposing of trash anywhere else — including community trash cans or private dumpsters — is prohibited.

⚠️ We do our best to ensure there is propane available for grills and/or fire pits, but cannot guarantee there will be propane for use throughout your stay. If all available tanks are empty, we ask that you refill a tank and provide a receipt for reimbursement. Note: be sure to refill/replace the existing tanks - do not purchase a brand new tank.
⚠️ Given our property's rural setting, you might occasionally notice small, non-harmful insects. Rest assured, we have comprehensive, year-round pest control measures in place and work hard to minimize these encounters. Thank you for your understanding, and please let us know if you have any concerns!
⚠️ Friendly Note: 🐻 Since our home is tucked in nature, you may spot a black bear in the area from time to time. No worries - they're generally well-behaved and prefer to keep their distance from people. As long as food and trash are secured, they'll simply wander by and continue on their way.
⚠️Winter Driving Note❄️: During winter months, 4WD/AWD is strongly recommended for safe and comfortable access, as mountain roads can be snowy or icy. We do our best to have the driveway plowed, but weather can change quickly and conditions may vary. If a vehicle becomes stuck, guests are responsible for arranging and covering any towing or assistance needed.
⚠️ Lost & Found Shipping Policy: If personal items are left behind, we're happy to arrange return shipping 📦 — please note a $50 handling fee will apply for retrieval and coordination, separate from and in addition to all shipping and delivery costs 🚚 (shipping/delivery fees are not included in the $50 fee).

‼️ Important Notes
📌 Submitting a valid ID and signing our rental agreement after your reservation is confirmed is required for this property. If these steps are not completed, your reservation will be cancelled.
📌 A refundable security deposit is required for all one-night reservations and for any bookings made outside of Airbnb. For reservations booked through Airbnb, the security deposit is offered only as an optional add-on that guests may choose to include at the time of booking for extra damage insurance.
📌 For Airbnb reservations with a one-night stay, an additional damage waiver of $100–$200 is required. This waiver is requested through the Airbnb Resolution Center and provides coverage up to the amount paid. If any damage exceeds this coverage, the terms and conditions outlined in your rental agreement will apply.

♨️ Hot Tub Notice – Please Read 😊

📌 We strive to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene. Occasionally, if a previous guest hasn’t followed proper usage guidelines, we may need to drain, clean, and refill the hot tub before your stay for health and safety reasons 🧼🦠. If this happens, please note that it may take until the evening of your first night (or slightly longer, depending on the weather) for the water to fully heat back up 🔥🌙. We totally get that guests look forward to relaxing in the hot tub, and we only perform this maintenance when absolutely necessary to ensure a clean and safe experience for everyone 💧👍.
📌For transparency, please know that our hot tub is professionally serviced after every reservation, and our tech team sends us time-stamped photos once the cleaning and servicing is completed — we keep those photos on file to confirm it’s been properly cleaned and ready for each new guest. Lastly, if you request any additional hot tub cleaning/service during your stay (outside of our standard post-checkout service), it will come with an additional fee and will be billed to the guest.
📌 A note on water appearance: To keep the hot tub looking and feeling its best throughout your visit, we recommend rinsing off before each use — lotions, sunscreen, and natural body oils can affect water color and clarity, especially with larger groups. This is completely normal and not a sign of poor maintenance. A quick rinse goes a long way toward keeping the water crystal clear for everyone to enjoy!
