Parking at the house is on the driveway only - no street parking. This house has a large space for cars and you can also block the driveway so that the kids can ride their bikes safely in the paved parking area. You may also use the garage. There is one taxi company in Sisters and some Uber or Lift drivers. If coming in the winter, we will need to add a snow removal fee to the reservation separately for access to your vehicle(S)

The "Trip House" Certificate of Authority to collect Transient Room Tax is #1437.

There are a few housekeeping items we ask you to do prior to departure to help with the turnover of the home. (especially in the Summer) One being that you have the pool towels washed and dried and put back in the closet. Housekeeping suggests you do that the night prior to departure. If you'd like to bring your own towels you are welcome to do that also.

The house use to sleep 10 but we added a bed in the bunk room and now have sleeping for 12. The only people that should be in the house are the ones that are registered and on the reservation. For example, if you have 6 guests, only 6 guests are allowed at the house. If you are interested in having others at the house that are vacationing with you, but at other homes, it is important that you first contact the hosts to let them know.

We have security cameras on the front door of the house (golf course side) and the driveway.

Again, Black Butte Ranch Resort fee as of January 1, 2024 for 12% of your nightly rate. If you book for 2026 before January 1, 2026, we will need to add an additonal 1.5% to your reservation for the 2026 increase they are implementing. We are hoping it adds this to your reservation. If it does not show up, we will collect via the resolution center on Airbnb or by credit card on the other platforms or if you book directly with Avacationexperience.
