Pets are not allowed on furniture nor on or in the beds. Guests will be charged an additional cleaning fee of not less than $150 if pet fur causes a delay in cleaning services.

For the most part we have excellent guests and rarely have an issue with any of the above mentioned (smoking, vaping, pet policy, messes, etc). However, on the occasion, we have guests that completely disrespect our property, therefore, we needed to institute stricter policies. We love sharing our home on the beautiful Penns Creek and we want to continue sharing the wonders of the wildlife and the beauty of the mountains. If you have any questions regarding the policies please do not hesitate to send us an inquiry before booking your stay.
We look forward to having you stay at Trout Run Cottage.
