Treeside Retreat with Hot tub

You will love this one story cottage nestled among the trees. Treeside Retreat is a great place for any season. There is a screened in porch to BBQ and dine on and a hot tub to relax in after a skiing or hiking in the cooler months.

Falls Lake Resort is in the small rural town of Vaughan, just south of Windsor, NS.
It is a quiet, private community located on Falls Lake. Only owners and their guests are allowed into the resort. There is a community beach just north of our cabin which is great for small children and dogs to play on. The roads within the resort are ideal for walking around to explore the community. There is also a boat launch just a few meters south of our property if you wish to bring your own watercraft. The dock has cleats to attach watercraft to so you can park them right in front of the cabin.
The area is also is a great location for road tripping to many places in the Nova Scotia.

You will need you own car to get around. There are no public transportation or taxi services nearby.
Absolutely no parties or events. This is a beautiful, quiet part of the world, so please be respectful towards the neighbors and keep the noise down, especially between 10 pm and 7 am. There are noise monitors inside and outside (these record noise levels, not dialogue) as well as a security camera overlooking the driveway.

This is a smoke-free home. Please do not smoke or vape in the house, hot tub, decks, or on the outside furniture. If you smoke or vape outside, please clean up after yourself and make sure all butts etc. are fully extinguished before disposal. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Firewood is not included but is available for purchase the store nearby. Do not take wood from neighbouring properties. My neighbours have cameras installed to monitor their properties.

Before the firepit is used, the burn restrictions must be checked. No fires are allowed before 2pm on any day.

No extra guests without prior consent from host.

All adults staying at the property must read the house rules and manual prior to their stay.

It is essential that all waste is sorted, bagged and disposed in the proper location. There is camera surveillance of the garbage disposal area to ensure it is done correctly. Detailed instructions are given and must be adhered to to avoid wildlife getting into the bags and to avoid rejection by the waste management company.

Since the property is on a septic system, please be mindful of what you put down the drains and toilets. Generally speaking, only stuff that comes out of you and toilet paper is safe to flush (do not dispose of any hazardous chemicals, plastics or wet wipes as they will either clog or mess with the chemistry of the system). Also make sure that any toilet paper you have is septic safe (usually labelled on the package). Failure to do so could result in a backup of sewage into the house.

Do not use the wash clothes to remove makeup or mascara. Use disposable pads for this and please dispose of these in the garbage.

Please remove shoes upon entering.

Pets are allowed for a fee of $50 per stay. Guests are responsible for keeping their pets under control at all times and to clean up after them. When you bring your pet along I kindly ask that you adhere to a few simple rules during your visit. This way, I can continue to operate as a pet-friendly retreat in the future.
1)Please keep your pets off the furniture at all times, so that other visitors coming after you won’t have to contend with potential pet odors. If, however, your pet insists on hopping up, please make sure you cover all bedding and furniture with blankets and sheets brought from home.
2)Pets must be under the care and control of their owners at all times. Per the Falls Lake Resort bylaws all pets must be on leash when outdoors.
3)Pets must not be left alone inside the cottage for extended periods.
4)Per Falls Lake Resort bylaws you must keep your pet from barking or making noise incessantly.
5)Please clean up after your pets.
6)All pets must be up-to-date with all necessary shots, flea, and tick treatments.
