Accessibility Statement
Our Commitment to Accessibility
Gilded Fern Estates is committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive online experience. We want guests, couples, families, vendors, and visitors of all abilities to be able to learn about our properties, explore our offerings, and contact us as easily as possible.
​
Accessibility is an ongoing part of how we care for the people who visit our website and the meaningful experiences they are planning with us.
Accessibility Standards
We work toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and consider newer guidance contained in WCAG 2.2 where reasonably possible. These guidelines provide recommendations for making online content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities and assistive-technology needs.
​
Because accessibility practices, technologies, and website content continue to evolve, full accessibility cannot be guaranteed in every circumstance. We remain committed to identifying barriers and making reasonable improvements over time.
Our Ongoing Efforts
As part of our continuing accessibility efforts, we aim to:
-
Use clear and consistent page structures
-
Provide alternative text for meaningful images
-
Organize content with logical headings
-
Support keyboard-based website navigation
-
Maintain readable text and appropriate color contrast
-
Label forms and interactive elements clearly
-
Review new website content and features with accessibility in mind
-
Correct identified accessibility barriers when reasonably possible
Third-Party Platforms and Content
Our website may connect visitors to third-party services, including booking platforms, maps, social media websites, payment services, and other external tools. Gilded Fern Estates does not control the accessibility or functionality of these independent platforms.
​
If you experience difficulty using a third-party feature connected to our website, please contact us. We will make a reasonable effort to help you access the information you need or provide an available alternative.
Property Accessibility
Digital accessibility does not necessarily indicate that every physical area, accommodation, outdoor space, or event setting at Gilded Fern Estates is accessible to every individual.
​
Our properties include natural terrain, lawns, wooded areas, outdoor gathering spaces, and privately owned accommodations. Accessibility may differ by property and may be affected by seasonal or weather conditions. If you have questions about mobility, lodging access, parking, terrain, or other accommodation needs, please contact us before booking or visiting. We will provide the available information and discuss reasonable options whenever possible.
