Other things to note
The Nugget is located in a private lake community with nearby neighbors, so please be respectful of noise levels early in the morning or late in the evening.

While surrounded by nature, it is typical to see small insects such as spiders, beetles, and mosquitos around. Please also be mindful of larger animals such as deer, hawks, bobcats, foxes, and bears when exploring the area, especially at night/early morning.

We love your furry, four-legged friends! If you're bringing a pet with you, kindly let us know upon booking as an additional pet fee will be added to your stay. The fee allows us to spend extra time cleaning rugs, other soft surfaces, and the yard. This also ensures we set out the food/water bowls and a special treat for fido!

Parking is available for up to three cars, and please note that supplemental street parking is not available and would block neighboring driveways. Parties and loud noises/disturbances are not allowed.
