Forest Cozy Home

Please view all photos to understand my home. There is no listing category within the Airbnb template to label my place what it truly is: not the entire house because I live in the basement when guests are here. County Permit Office now requires me to say the rental is only 1 bedroom, but these photos don't lie. You have full privacy, not me sharing any of the space with you. I have to comply with County Permitting restrictions. Plz forgive the confusion. Message me directly and I will explain.
