All surfaces are sanitized, and dishes and linens are washed between guests. My dogs and I live upstairs, so you will hear us occasionally, but I try to minimize any noise as much as I can. Because of this, it's unsuitable for working remotely full time.
Service dogs are welcome and Guests must agree to rules and regulations (instant booking not available.)

We share the backyard patio which has a wooden table and chairs with cushions, four adirondack chairs, two zero gravity chairs, and two barbecues. In the summer there is fresh produce from the garden and herbs to cook with.
- My dogs are not allowed downstairs. I'll give you treats to facilitate your meetings. Even so, Chèvre will still bark at you. She is Drew Barrymore in "50 first dates." Fauci is my Covid puppy and is very shy.
- The upstairs wood floors of this 70-year-old house do squeak in some rooms.
- There is no smoking or vaping of any kind inside, so use the back patio and or front deck.
