Other Things to Note: The outdoor areas of the Little House are shared with a long term tenant in the main house and 2 dogs. They are well behaved but may bark upon first meeting a new person. Also, please allow a bit of room for the Montago Coffee trailer next door to pull in and out of their driveway as needed. Thanks! Interaction with Guests: The Little House shares a yard with a long term tenant occupying the main house next door. You may run into the tenant during your stay (in the yard, etc), but if you have any questions or concerns please contact us as the tenant probably won't be able to assist you!
