​

We hope your time at the Farmhouse is immersive, restorative, and filled with much merrymaking. But, if things take a turn to the destructive, then we adhere to the adage ‘you break it, you buy it’. Property damages or missing items will be charged to your deposit at market value.

​

When booking, please keep maximum occupancy rules in mind. Six people maximum in the house unless previously arranged between the two parties. Additional guest may stay at the Farmhouse for an extra fee of $75. We would accommodate a queen air mattress in one of the bedrooms.

​

Pre-existing damages or issues with the lodge must be reported to us by email (farmhousebroadbrook@gmail.com) immediately after check-in to avoid responsibility and potential charges.

• Any of our terms and conditions are violated

This applies to both traditional smoking methods and all electronic delivery systems, including vapes, vaporizers, vape pens, hookah pens, electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes or e-cigs), e-pipes, and any variations of the foregoing regardless of the product’s name.

 

Any smoking in the rooms or strong lingering smoking scents in rooms will result in a disappointed expression and an incidental charge. Smoking is permitted outdoors, but no trace should be left behind, or again, you may risk losing your deposit.

Fireplaces and Fire Pit

There’s just something about the crackle and smell of a campfire…we agree. Fires are welcome in any functioning and clearly designated fireplace or outdoor fire pit. We have provided some wood for burning. Cutting wood from the forest is strictly prohibited (and will result in a smoky fire). You are liable for any damages caused by indoor or outdoor fires.

​

Indoor fires: For fireplaces please use provided fire starter logs or wood to start indoor fires and not papers/cardboard/garbage as these can start chimney fires.
