Other things to note
No UNAUTHORIZED Pets allowed - Donkeys are very protective and territorial, and many of the donkeys on property will kill domestic pets, as they consider them intruders. We love animals and definitely want to keep both the donkeys and your animals safe. Therefore, we ask that you disclose your pet upon booking so that we can make sure that a) the protective electric fencing is on to protect both pets and donkeys and b) we know that a pet is on site. This is a rural area and sadly enough, unexpected domesticated animals can meet untimely ends out here if they are perceived as strays or a threat to other pets and livestock. Understand that there is no closed front entrance gate and it is your responsibility to not let your animal run off. Absolutely do not leave your animal unattended or uncrated in the cabin! Clorox cleanup wipes are provided in cabin to wipe up any accident. And please, no pets in the bed.
