SMOKING:
This is a Smoke-Free Home, but do have a smoking area located in the back yard under the cabin’s awning, where you’ll find shade, chairs, and a 10-can for cigarette butts.
HOMES ADDITIONAL RENTALS:
The home has two other rentals (above garage and basement); each with their own private entrance. These renters keep to themselves, but you may see them when they walk from their car to their home. They park on the street, and have two spaces on the left side of the driveway. We do ask that you be mindful of excessive noise or running/jumping around on the main floor, since our basement renters have work and school in the morning, Our floors are thick and keep most noise out, but jumping and running generally carry through into the basement. If you can, please remind everyone of the 10pm courtesy quiet hours.
CHECK OUT PROCEDURE:
Check-Out is at 11am. This is your vacation time, and we want you to be able to relax and enjoy your stay with us! In return, we do ask for a few simple check-out tasks to help us prepare the home in time for the next guests, as well as to help us keep our costs down so that we can continue to offer the home at a budget-friendly rate! In preparation for your departure, please do the following:
• Bedding: Help us identify which beds were used by folding your top sheet and comforters halfway down on the beds that were slept in. There is no need to fully strip the sheets off the bed; we will take care of that for you!
• Towels: Place all used towels on the floor of the laundry room.
• Re-Set Furniture Placement: Replace any furniture or beds, that were moved during your stay, to their original location. Be sure to lift the furniture when you move them; don’t drag them across the floor.
• Dishes: Load all dirty dishes into the dishwasher and start a cycle (even if it’s not a full load). Hand-wash any dirty large items, and place them on the drying rack.
• Check Refrigerators and Pantry: Remove food from both fridges and wipe the shelves where food was kept. Feel free to leave any non-perishable food items in our community pantry for the next guests to enjoy!
• Check for Personal Items: Double-check all drawers, closets, under the beds, and the washer/dryer for personal items. Phone chargers, toiletries, and socks are the items most often left behind.
• Reset TVs: Place each TV’s remote back onto the table below the TV. If you used a personal account to log into a TV app (i.e. Netflix, Disney+), be sure to sign out of the app unless you wish to share it with the next guests!
• Garbage: Pick up all garbage in and around the home and place in one of the trash bins located in the home. Please take stinky bags, or bags with food, to the outside bin located by the garage.
• Final Shut-Downs: Turn off lights, and shut and lock all windows and exterior doors. The thermostats will adjust automatically, so there is no need to do anything with them, but be sure the window ACs and fireplaces are turned of.
• Report any broken items: Occasionally things break, please notify us of any broken items during your stay, this way we can make sure the next guest has the same things you enjoyed.
• Text when you’ve left: This will help our staff know if they can get an early start in preparing the home for the next guests. Do you need more time to check out? Or wish to stay a day or more longer at a discount rate? We will be happy to discuss what options we can give you, depending on the planned check-in time of our next guests.
