Good to know
The first impression that you get when driving up to the Ellison House Manor is the quiet, flat and easy going street the house resides on. You should typically be able to park directly in front of the house and walk right up to the door. If you arrive as the sun goes down, the string lights and censored lights should illuminate your welcome. On the porch you will see your insta moment on our swinging bench. Sit, swing, relax, and take a selfie to share with family and friends. Once inside the house you will be greeted with the living room to the left and the dining room to your right. The living room is the perfect room to sit, relax, watch tv, have a drink, and catch up with your friends and family. The dining room is perfect for 6 but you can certainly have a couple more. The french doors can be closed to keep the sounds of happy chatter a bit quieter for people trying to sleep. As you go down the hallway you will see the first bedroom to the left which includes 2 full sized beds. There is a 32 inch TV with Roku. The second bedroom includes 2 twin beds, also with a 32 inch TV with Roku. In between the 2 rooms is a full bathroom. Further down the hallway is the primary bedroom which includes a KING bed, a desk and chair for work, as well as a 32 inch TV and Roku. Through the dining room you enter the Game Room / Movie Room. This is perfect for the kids and adults of all ages. Go back in time and play Pac-Man on our arcade style game. Play board games if you would like, and with the 60 inch TV, entertainment can go on for hours. As you go through the Game Room / Movie Room, you will then enter the kitchen and dining area. The dining area nook includes seating for 2 with its french bistro feel. Since this is a southern charmer home, we decorated the cabinets with that inspiration in mind. The kitchen should be a great place to gather and cook. The island provides a great space to cook and the kitchen amenities should allow for different cooking experiences. To the left of the kitchen is the coffee bar....most of us need this in the morning so enjoy the coffee options. As you go past the kitchen you will see the laundry room which includes a washing machine and dryer. The door past the laundry room is the back door to the deck. The deck is an amazing space to relax, grill on the BBQ, have dinner, chat with friends, and take in the view at night. The steps on the deck will then take you to our backyard. You will see a space for a firepit and chairs. The path takes you around the backyard and to the Hot Tub where you enjoy the warmth of the water while watching the sunset off in the distance. The Ellison House has 2 levels of living spaces. As our guests at the Ellison Manor (main floor), you will have access to everything upstairs and the backyard with the hot tub. Keep in mind that the downstairs is a separate studio and may have guests staying at the same time. Please remember to be considerate to other guests who may be staying in the studio below. All in all the Ellison House brings the nostalgia of the old south and includes the modern amenities that we all enjoy. We hope you enjoy your stay with us. :) ***** PLEASE READ******* This house is not designed to have parties or gatherings.

As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $39 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional. To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.
