Other Things to Note:
At the Pond House on the Plains we offer fun, wholesome, special touches to make your stay an experience to remember for the whole family! Where else can you get a 30-60 minute scenic ride through the lovely adjoining woods and fields on a vintage firetruck?! This is also the perfect prop for taking unique photos. A full mini tea set is provided for your use plus a picnic basket set. There is a fun tiny playroom for the little ones built in under the stairs with books, props, and fairy lights for imaginative play. Fishing poles and a paddleboat will be provided upon prior written request so you can more fully enjoy the pond. You are welcome to bring your own additional non-motorized boats such as kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. The Pond House is the only brick, two-story home in the small, surrounding "Whatley Farms" neighborhood.

Interaction with Guests:
In most cases, I will meet you on arrival to give you a quick tour of the space and answer any questions. After that you can contact me at any time if you need something. I live close by with my husband and two daughters and thus will be readily available! My family loves learning together and serving in our church. This is my hometown and I love the area so much. I will be more than happy to help you with any local questions or recommendations!
