  DIRECTIONS AND PARKING:
  We live on a narrow one-lane road through a rural and wooded neighborhood. Please drive slowly and with care through our neighborhood and be prepared to pull over for oncoming traffic. Once off Beach Mill Road, follow the green neighborhood signs to 10900 Thimbleberry Lane. Don't miss the last sign (on a tree) to turn left where Thimbleberry Lane splits.

  Parking is available in our circular driveway: enter drive from the left ( west) side and pull in clockwise to allow as many cars as possible in the driveway. Once the driveway fills up, parking is also available along the east access road on the side opposite the fence. If additional space is needed, a parking guide will be available at the end of our driveway for assistance.

  We recommend that our guests park facing out to avoid turn arounds in the dark. When exiting, you will need to return the way you came in.

  For your safety, please appoint a designated driver to ensure your safe ride home.
