Cutting Boards Provided
Please use the provided cutting boards and avoid cutting directly on the countertops. They may look like wood cutting boards, but they are not designed for direct use.
Cooking with Induction
Please note that the induction stovetop heats up extremely fast, so be mindful to avoid burning your food. Also, induction cookware must be placed directly on the element for it to activate—otherwise, the burners will not heat up.

Washroom and Laundry
The washroom features a grand 5' x 3' full height shower with rain head, elegant toilet, and beautifully vanity with lighted mirror. Here you will also find full laundry facilities with stacked washer and dryer.
Heating and Cooling
The Barn Studio is heated by radiant in-floor heating, which provides steady warmth but takes time to heat up. We ensure the heat is turned up on the morning of your booking, and for last-minute reservations, we adjust it as soon as possible. In the summer, two in-window air conditioners keep the space cool and comfortable.
Hot Water
Our water is heated by a boiler located on the other side of the barn, so it may take a few minutes for hot water to reach the shower and kitchen sink. A helpful tip: if the kitchen sink takes a bit longer to warm up, turning on the shower to hot can speed up the process. If you ever have any concerns, just let us know—we’re happy to help!
