Additional Rules:
Please do not block the driveway gate.
Please do not park by mailbox - USPS has made this request and will not deliver mail if cars are parked too close to it.
Please remove your shoes once you've entered the house.
Please no shoes on the carpet.
Keep bathroom fan running during bath. Please keep running for at least 15 mins after bath. Be sure to remember to shut fan off after - especially when exiting the house.
We will keep guests informed of any existing burn-bans that may be in place, as this will dictate whether or not the fire pit may be used.
No smoking by any of the house entrances and windows. Dispose of any cigarette butts.
Please be sure that both windows and doors are locked when leaving the house.
No parties.
Please keep volume at a reasonable level as we do work from home.
Quiet hours begin at 10pm. Our neighbors are great so we would love to keep it that way by showing respect for their space too.
Space allows for two adults and a small animal, comfortably. If brining a pet, you must pick up after them and dispose of their poops. As we also do have a dog, we ask that you please keep your dog on leash in the yard. If you would like your animal to have some exercise in the yard, no worries, just let us know so that we can be sure our pup is in doors at that time. Also, be sure remember to close the driveway gate beforehand so your pup doesn't run off!
If you would like to have a small gathering in the backyard, please ask beforehand so that we may gather further information to make help us make a better determination. This also helps to avoid us from being startled by unexpected guests walking onto our property. Again, the actual suit itself really is only suitable for two adults and one small animal. The backyard area is a shared space so please be comfortable with knowing that we too may be out there having fire or laying in a hammock reading a book, etc.
Prompt 10am checkout time. This allows for just enough time for our cleaners to enter the space and clean/prepare for next guests.
Please be sure that all windows and doors are locked/shut when exiting the room.
As the home is 100 years only, please only flush toilet paper down the toilet. Anything else should be disposed of in the trash bin.
THANK YOU!!
