FIRST TIME STAYING IN A SHIPPING CONTAINER HOME? You're not alone! We get tons of questions - Many asking, "Is this a 'normal' home?" - The answer is, yes! The outside looks extremely unique, but we imagine that once you're inside, you'll forget you're in a shipping container because of the comfortable design and luxe touches added throughout the home. Split units keep our home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Please note, all of the bedrooms are single containers and therefore, are narrow. The photos show this as the containers are the width of queen/king size beds. Additionally, this is still a cabin in the woods! It is an upscale cabin, yet imperfect. If you are looking for hotel quality perfection, please consider booking elsewhere.
PET AMENITIES
1. Fenced in area for the pups!
2. Paw Wiping Towels
3. 'Poo Bags'
4. Dog Waste Trash Cans
Pet Fee: $125 for first pet, $75 dollars per additional pets. Please add your pet to the listing prior to booking. We ask for $125 for the convenience of having your fur baby on vacation and for the extra clean up of waste and fur. No breed restrictions, maximum of 4 pets. Rovers in our area are 30-40 dollars per night if you prefer to have a pet free vacation!
CRITTERS: We have regular pest control for a variety of critters & regularly treat for snakes. However, you might see them anyway as we are on 5 acres of wooded forest. We do our best to prevent it, but sometimes bugs find their way inside. If this will ruin your stay, you might consider booking elsewhere.
WINTER BOOKINGS:
Please note, there are several outdoor spaces including the theatre shed and boathouse that will be the temperature of the outdoors. Therefore, if not using these spaces during a cold winter stay would ruin your time here, please consider booking elsewhere. Additionally, in Tennessee, pipes are traditionally under the home not fully protected from the elements and this is true with our as well. If temperatures are consistently below freezing during your trip, we will ask that you drip the faucets to prevent freezing pipes. This will likely only apply to select December, January and February bookings. It typically occurs once per year in Tennessee. While it is unlikely, it's possible. Please do not book if you are not willing and able to assist!
CANCELLATIONS: We will not provide any refunds for weather unless there is a government issued evacuation. Please protect yourself by purchasing travel insurance. We will occasionally experience winter weather and snow. While we are not in a true mountainous area, there are steep hills in parts of our neighborhood. Please plan ahead, check the weather and use a 4 wheel drive vehicle when necessary.
When booking our home using certain sites that use a payment processor, we incur fees that cannot be recouped if you cancel. We will not refund any booking site or credit card processing fees. Please ensure that all members of your party have fully confirmed these dates prior to booking. Holding our home 'just in case' hurts us as small business owners and home owners as this blocks our calendar, making it harder to rebook those days.
