What should I bring on my trip? Shelley suggests bringing drinking water, oil/ butter for cooking on stainless steel, slippers/ loafers, and campfire wood if using the firepit (or you can buy ours and have it delivered to your doorstep.) If you plan on doing "Chores N' Tour with Shelley and feeding all the farm animals, bring closed-toe shoes such as sneakers or boots. No flip-flops or sandals are allowed for animal experiences. (Quick Note: Please leave home any bubble baths, bath bombs or salts as these are harmful on jacuzzis. Using plain water is best.) 2. Can I wander around the ranch, unattended? Keep in mind we are a small ranch and while 1/2 of our property is open, the other 1/2 is livestock pastures and other Airbnb's. You can walk to the glampground, play a round of corn hole or the new horseshoe pit (opening spring 2024.) 3. Can I access the all animals? The barndominium has its own, fenced barnyard that consists of a wooly sheep, a miniature horse, and an entire chicken coop where you can feed the chickens anytime while admiring our beautiful Indian peacock. You will also be able to see (but not touch) the turkeys, a mini pig, and an alpaca close by! 4. What other Airbnbs are at the ranch? There is a tiny house, two bell tent yurts, mini-huts, and an entire Old West-themed glampground at the ranch. YES! You can have friends and family rent other units and make this a group experience. You can also see all of our listings if you click our name (logo.) 5. What's the history of the ranch? The property was a horse rescue for two decades. Some students take horse lessons here and the public books guided educational tours and paint parties. The ranch also produces a small amount of alpaca fiber and sheep wool that's sold yearly. 6. Can friends and family visit me while I'm at the ranch? No. The only people permitted to enter the property are registered guests. The public cannot access the property and we have a coded entrance gate. As a guest, you can expect to see other guests here, not people walking in off the street. 7. Can I catch a UBER or LYFT? Yes! You can easily catch a ride to Ocean City, Maryland, or beyond. You'll need to be picked up at the entrance gate, not at the barndominium. How about food delivery? Yes! Order Doordash or pizza delivery. Just plan to meet your driver at the entrance gate, not the barndominium. 8. Is there an option for early check-ins and late check-outs? No. Because this property has multiple rentals, we do not allow early check-ins or late check-outs. All cleans are performed on time and this keeps us on schedule for the next guest. Thank you for your understanding. 9. Are activities for children a different price than adults? All of our on-site activities are the same price for everyone. While you're here, you can choose from Chores N' Tour, Brush N' Bond, Painting w/ Shelley and unique Horse Whispering lessons. 10. Can I bring my pet or service animals? No. We do not allow any guest animals or pets to stay with us due to regulations and safety issues. We are also service animal exempt due to safety issues with nearby guardian livestock. 11. What is the smoking/ vaping policy? We operate a strict no-smoking and no-vaping policy at all times inside all of our rentals. The Swedish Cowboy space is located inside a barn and smoking of any kind is strictly prohibited while inside the barn house or directly outside. The best place to smoke is by walking down the driveway or inside your car (away from the stable.) 12. How secure is the ranch? The property has six outdoor security cameras running and in use at all times. These outdoor security cameras help protect humans and animals alike. There's a coded entrance gate upon your arrival to the ranch and there is on-site management that is available during your stay. You cannot enter the property without a code and we ask that you do not give it out while you're here. 13. This home sleeps 4 guests *including* babies & children. Have more than 4? Add 5th, and 6th guests for $25.00 for each additional person for your stay. We do not accommodate more than 6 guests max. 14. What are the checkout procedures? We have a 5-step checkout process and ask that our guests leave the barn house the way they found it, (neat and tidy.) We love to brag about super clean guests who leave our home well cared for. You will see our checkout procedures on the refrigerator. Guest access - This cozy Barndominium and fenced yard are yours to enjoy! However, going inside animal enclosures is off-limits. - Guests will have access to a small fenced yard with access to their barnyard of animals, fire pit and BBQ grill - Plan to see animal caretaking or people strolling by. This is not a secluded spot- (we have a tiny house on Airbnb that is more secluded though!) At night, the yard has more privacy. - Children of all ages MUST be accompanied by an adult at ALL TIMES on the farm. Please do not open latched/closed gates, go inside, or climb into animal enclosures. Other things to note Accurate Headcount: This home allows 4 people to stay including babies and children. It has 1 full bathroom and 2 bedrooms. You can add up to two (2) extra guests for $25.00 each person. Booking Authenticity: We only accept guests using their own Airbnb profile accounts. We do not accept parents booking for children, friends booking for other friends, or anybody booking for somebody else. We look at guest reviews and expect to know who we are booking with by reading your guest reviews from other hosts. The person booking is who we expect to see checking into the farm and opening our doors. The Space: We are a working ranch. There's a good chance you'll see farm projects being completed, farm chores being done, and animals being moved around. The Swedish Cowboy space IS NOT isolated, but is at the heart of the ranch- in the middle, with activities and barnyard animals surrounding it. No Smoking Policy: A $250.00 fee will apply if a smoke odor is found. Extra cleaning of furniture may induce a second fee. Thank you for not smoking or vaping inside or outside of the barn house. Security: Several outdoor security cameras are on 24-7 and recording. These protect our guests and animals at all times. No Parties: We live on-site and cater to families and couples. This is not a party place and we do not permit parties. Airbnb will terminate your stay immediately for a party. Dangerous Animal: Livestock can be dangerous. Children under 18yo must be with an adult if walking around. Please do not climb on fences and keep out of animal pens/ enclosures.

Cabins in Delaware guide

Overview

What it lacks in size—this is the nation’s second-smallest state, after all—Delaware makes up for in easily accessible adventures. White sandy beaches stretch along the Atlantic coast, while inland lakes, forests, and wetlands provide ample terrain for fishing, biking, and fall foliage walks. Several Delaware state parks have cabin rentals available, whether you want to cool off at the water park in Killens Pond State Park, or fish, kayak, and canoe in the wetlands of Trap Pond State Park. When the mercury rises in summer, head to the coast to cool off. Rent a camper cabin amid the sand dunes at Cape Henlopen State Park or check into a luxury cottage along the Indian River Inlet at Delaware Seashore State Park—just make sure to book well in advance, as this is peak camping season. Through the colder months, opt for a heated log cabin or glampsite in the woods.
