Perfect for groups or large families. 4 bunk beds and 3 futons have 11 mattresses, or sleep 16 for singles and couples. Full kitchen, dining area, living room can be a meeting room also. Most enjoy the outdoors with the 3 acre pasture next door, the large lawn for star gazing and perhaps the 3 acre pond and firepit will be available; call for availability. Your own private large yard and huge veranda for gatherings.

So much to experience for lasting memories. Experience the night sky, the stars, the Milky Way without light pollution. With the guide book inside your rental, experience a self guided tour to the Stars and beyond! If you want to get closer to the ground, take a self guided walking “scavenger hunt” around the property and learn about the animals, fish, pond and trees. Very informative and thought provoking. Looking for relaxation, make a picnic at the spool tables near the pasture and watch the alpacas, goats and pigs eat and play. Some of them will come right up to the fence and watch you too.

There are privacy curtains between the bunk beds if desired, also privacy curtains between the living room and dining area in case someone sleeps on the futons.
There are other tourist homes on the property, but the nearest is about 1000 ft away and can hardly been seen from the Bunkhouse. While the bunkhouse has its own yard and veranda; there is a possibility the acres and acres of pasture, lawn and Iris Pond might be common area with other tourists. It is more like a park than a campground. No crowding but we do ask that you do no upset the neighborhood with loud noises..
The main house where your hosts live is about 1/4 mile from the bunkhouse. We will wave as we drive by, but otherwise respect your privacy. We are within text message if you need us. However, we are not on the property 24/7, so if you want to reserve an activity or need something additional, it's best to give 24 hours notice.





We also remind you that you are responsible for your guests' behavior. Please make them aware of the house rules and that any children must be accompanied by an adult when outside; especially near the 16 foot deep Iris Pond.

HOUSE RULES
* Please leave the house as you found it. For example, if you move furniture, bedding, cookware, etc please put it back. Otherwise there will be a $100/hour labor charge, with a minimum of $300.
* Please leave the key where you found it.
* Smoking is NOT permitted indoors. However, it is allowed outside as long as butts are policed and fowl will not eat them.
* We are on a septic system so, please put only liquids down the sink drains and flush nothing but toilet paper down the toilet.
* This is a certified “Virginia Green” establishment and we offer the option of re-cycling. If you choose to do so, use a separate garbage bag for re-cyclables, eg. plastic, glass, cans, cardboard.
* To help conserve energy, when you go out, please turn down the heat. In summer, turn off the air-conditioners.
* Please respect our neighbors and the privacy of other visitors to the property and avoid noisy activities.
* Please do not feed anything to the goats or alpacas.
* If music is used it must be acoustic and the Culpeper County noise ordinance requires a 10 pm cut off for outside noisy activities.

Additional guests must be approved by us. We aren't talking about people coming for just a few minutes to meet up to go somewhere else, for example. Additional guest are people coming to spend the afternoon or share a meal with you. There have been times when visitors took advantage and had large, noisy parties, so we cannot discriminate and must ask all guests:
How many additional guests? Adults and/or children?
How many additional cars will be on the property?
How long do you expect your guests to be with you? Specific times would be appreciated, or a good approximation.

Because of the septic system, we cannot allow more than 16 overnight guests in the Bunkhouse. If you would like to have more join, we would have to rent a porto potty to be used at $100/night, 2 night minimum.

We respect our guests' privacy and will leave you alone to enjoy yourself. You may see us coming and going or engaged in the on-going work around the place.
