1. The Barn is a full living environment therefore the continental breakfast is not included. Why? The Barn accommodates 8 to 12 people and sometimes more. This makes it difficult for our small motel to operate a continental breakfast. Some exceptions apply.
2. Upon check out we have a few simple rules …. Each room used please strip the beds leaving the sheets and blankets on top of the bed for our housekeepers to properly care of.
3. Upon check out please load the dishwasher and start it.
4. Upon check out please bag up trash and place in the dumpster.
5. Upon check out please have the used towels/washcloths placed in a pile in the respective bathrooms.
Thank you for cooperating with these simple rules!
Our housekeepers work hard to make your stay clean and comfortable. Please consider tipping there hard work. Please look for their tip envelopes.
