Details
The Airbnb includes:
— Hot tub
— Fire pit
— BBQ grill
— Fully stocked kitchen
— Wi-Fi & printer
to use the BBQ grill we need to provide our own charcoal and lighter fluid and clean it well after.
House Rules
— No smoking inside the house or barn; smoking permitted outside, including the front porch and back deck where ashtrays have been provided.
- No gathering of people beyond the 9 guests maximum allowed
- No animals other than well-behaved, house-trained dogs are allowed in the house. Dogs must be leashed when outside, they must not be allowed to roam free (there is wildlife, including deer and bear, in the area, and we have neighbors).
I don't think anyone is going to break these but figured they should be included
What to bring
Weather
Google says the average high / low in Hillsville is 80° / 63° and 76% humidity. So it will be hot.
*I'll update this with the actual forecast closer to the trip :)
What To Bring
Y'all are adults and (I assume) can pack for a trip without help. That being said, a couple of extra reminders:
— Anything you need to play your character (dice, character sheet, spell descriptions, notes, etc). The Airbnb does have a printer if anyone forgets, but we shouldn't assume their printer will work.
— The Airbnb said they provide soap, shampoo, and conditioner so if you're cool with using whatever they have, don't feel like you need to bring it.
— Did I mention dice?
— A bathing suit for the hot tub people in the group.
— Hiking things if you want to hike.
Fancy Clothes !
Bring a pair of nicer clothes for a fun summer dinner party.
Nothing too fancy but something to get a little dressed up and have a nice dinner.

Fun Hillsville Facts
Hillsville Flea Market
The Hillsville Flea Market has been called the largest American flea market to the east of the Mississippi River.
Carroll County
Carroll County, the county that Hillsville is in, is named after Charles Carroll who was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
That's it. I've been all over Google and those are the only fun facts I can find. Also our Airbnb might have bears.
Emperor Zurg is in fact NOT Buzz Lightyear's father but is instead an older, alternate model of the toy.
