Please let us know the time you plan to check out so we can pass this information on to the housekeepers. We do a thorough cleaning between guests and we kindly ask that before leaving, you place dishes in the dishwasher and start it, and take out the trash. Please leave the home generally as you found it.

Restrooms: Please do not flush anything other than toilet paper down the toilet, including wet wipes and flushable wet wipes.

Lost Items: Please do not forget anything in the home. We can not package and ship things that are left behind.

Noise: Please respect the neighbors by keeping sound down after 10:00 pm. Please be mindful as you move about the home that there might be someone trying to sleep next door.

Parking: Street parking only. This street is not patrolled so there are no restrictions but please do not block any driveways.

Utilities: We kindly ask that you switch off lights and turn off heater when not in the home.

Please do not unplug anything in the home. It is difficult for the next guest if lamps are unplugged, and there are items in the home that operate the door lock and doorbell. If you don’t know what it is, do not unplug it. Do not unplug the wireless router or modem or it will shut down the door lock and you may get locked out.

The neighbors have asthma and the little patio in front of the door should not be used used to smoke. It is actually the neighbors' property & they open their windows above that area. The bigger downstairs patio and yard are great places to smoke.
