I want you to have an amazing stay and enjoy my home, but I do have a few rules!

FIRST, THE DEAL-BREAKERS (you could lose your deposit)

– Quiet hours are between 11pm and 7am. Our home is in a quiet neighborhood and we love our neighbors. Please respect our neighbors by adhering to our quiet hours.
– Absolutely NO smoking in or near the house
– Absolutely NO illegal drugs of any kind.
– Absolutely NO unregistered guests without prior approval.
– All overnight guests must be approved in advance through the booking process and are subject to an additional fee, as noted in our booking price.
– Limit of two pets are ONLY allowed if you have received pre-approval and have paid the one-time pet fee ($125 for one or two pets).
– Any significant damage or by not following these rules will result in the loss of your deposit.

OTHER HOUSE RULES

– Park in the garage/on the driveway/or on the other side of the road, but NOT on the road side closest to the house since it's a towing zone. (I don't want you to get towed if you park on the street next to the house).
– I have provided black make-up removal hand cloths to be used for removing makeup. Please do not use other towels, washcloths, hand towels or linens for makeup removal (the stains are permanent and you will be charged for stained linen).
– Please always lock all doors and close windows prior to your departure (front door should lock automatically every 30 seconds, but please make sure it does).
– I expect that you will respect my home and that you will generally pick up after yourself.

PETS: DOGS ALLOWED BY PRE-APPROVAL ONLY and ADDITIONAL PET FEE.
– Pet fee ($125 for one or two pets) must be paid prior to check-in or your dog(s) will not be allowed on the property.
– Your dog should be friendly and house trained. Dogs that utilize pee pads are NOT allowed.
– Pets are NOT allowed on the couch, beds, or any of the furniture.
– Guests must clean up any pet waste in the backyard to prevent future guests
from finding any surprises.
– Your dog must be supervised by you at all times or crated in the room if left alone.
– Any dog that becomes disruptive will need to be removed immediately.
– You will be charged for any damage caused by your dog
– Limit of two dogs. An additional dog may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

CHECK OUT INSTRUCTIONS
- Checkout is at 10am. (Late check out will inquire an extra charge of $45 and there is no guarantee the cleaning team can accommodate. We do apologize, however, please request any late checkout before the day of check in).
- Put all used towels on the floor so we know the ones that were used.
- Press the lock button to lock the front door after leaving.
- Send me a message that you have left.

KITCHEN INSTRUCTIONS:
– Please do not put knives in the dishwasher (hand wash only).
– Please Rinse and Remove all food from dishes prior to putting them in the
dishwasher.
– Please ensure that all dishes are thoroughly cleaned before putting any and all
dishes away.

GRILL INSTRUCTIONS:
-Please make sure to clean the grill grates with the scraper after each use. Please do not leave the grill unclean.

GARBAGE & RECYCLING PICK UP INSTRUCTIONS:
– Please bring out the garbage and recycling bins (should be inside the garage)
to the curb anytime on WEDNESDAY since garbage will be picked up by the city
early every Thursday morning.


GAS FIRE PIT AND OUTDOOR LIGHTS RULES/INSTRUCTIONS:
- If you choose to use the gas fire pit, DO NOT leave the gas fire pit unattended.
- DO NOT put/burn any items within the flames.
- When finished using the fire pit, turn knob to the off position and allow the fire pit to cool off first, and then please make sure to put the COVER BACK ON to protect it from weathering.
- To IGNITE the gas fire pit, it needs the propane to first be let out by holding the knob in for 10 seconds and then it should be able to successfully ignite after doing that (Please refer to the fire pit instructions that are on the label inside the door of the base of the firepit OR refer to the paper instructions left inside the small room).
- If you choose to use the outdoor lights, please remember to unplug them before leaving the lights and going back inside.
