Frequently Asked Questions!

𝟏) 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬? 𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲? 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤?
All rates, availabilities, and bookings are handled through our Airbnb. The link to our page is: https://www.airbnb.com/users/show/354143844. From our page you can navigate to the rental you are interested in

𝟐) 𝐀𝐢𝐫𝐛𝐧𝐛? 𝐖𝐡𝐲?
Convenience! For both you and us. It’s just like booking a hotel room. No need to wonder about availability. No need to mail a deposit check. It’s all at your fingertips from your phone or computer!

𝟑) 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐟𝐚𝐫 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮?
The Independence Trail is accessed directly from the property. No need to ride on the road to get to the trails!

𝟒) 𝐖𝐚𝐢𝐭! 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐭 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬? 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧?!
That’s correct! Bring one person, or the maximum available for that property. You pay the same total amount!

𝟓) 𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐦 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲?
For the small cabins, no. Stay 1 night or 5 – up to you! When larger rentals become available, there will likely be a minimum - TBD

𝟔) 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐈 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐠?
Sorry, at this time we cannot allow dogs on the property

𝟕) 𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐮𝐩𝐬?
Unfortunately, due to insurance restrictions, we cannot currently provide trailer hookups. If you have an LQ trailer with a generator and want to stay with us, please reach out and we can work something out

𝟖) 𝐌𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫. 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐈 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐞’𝐬 𝐂𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐧? 𝐀𝐢𝐫𝐛𝐧𝐛 𝐰𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐦𝐞!
This year we dedicated the potty and shower to the Dancing Bear, so Kate’s Cabin is blocked out. But, if the other half of your party doesn’t mind walking down to use the facilities, we can certainly offer both cabins. Reach out ahead of time with your dates and we can open Kate’s Cabin for you to book.

𝟗) 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞?
We are currently working on improvements in the Sweet Retreat and hope to have it available for the Fall season. We are not currently accepting reservations for it, as we don’t want to run into issues and potentially let you down!

𝟏𝟎) 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲?
We always strive to have one of us onsite to support our guests! Unless life bites us, we’ll be there!

Adam piloted the Manestay Stables at Otter Creek #13 Hobby Stock to his first career victory at Fulton Speedway last night!

We’re battling for the points championship every Saturday night at Fulton. Come on out and experience a different kind of horsepower!

See you on the trails and at the track!

We have had numerous inquiries over the last several days regarding availability of the Sweet Retreat, so we wanted to give a quick update. Our long term tenant moved out last week. We are currently in the process of cleaning and fixing. There are several improvements that must be made and many more that we would like to make. We are trying to find the right balance between expediency and quality. As many of you that have stayed with us probably realize, we tend to be a little OCD with cleanliness, organization, and comfort! The last thing we want to do is make it available too soon and disappoint one of our guests - we always want to exceed your expectations. We will update the FB page when we know a date, so keep checking back. Thanks to all for your interest and your support!

The new sign is hung. The shower is now moved over to the Dancing Bear, along with the porta-potty. And a Keurig is now available in the cabin! Ready for our first guests of the season next week!

Hard to believe it’s been a year 😔. We can think of no better way to honor Dad than show what we’ve done with his woodpile. Those that were close will understand.

Whoa!!! With the freezing temps upon us, that concludes our season at Manestay.

We cannot thank you all enough! It was such a pleasure meeting everyone that stayed with us. We really appreciated getting to know you and your ponies, and especially hearing all your Jerry stories!

We look forward to next year, and continuing to improve the camp. All suggestions are always welcome! Drop a thought below or PM us with suggestions.

The Airbnb calendar for next season is open for bookings. We’d be honored to have your continued support.

Thank you again!

Kate and Adam
