Because many guests have severe pet allergies & in order to preserve furnishings in the home, please do not allow dogs on the furniture. Extra damages due to pets will result in charging the $1000 security deposit in order to cover the costs it would require to repair/replace them.

GARBAGES We have carry-out service, so guests do not need to place cans on the curb. Collect all garbages from the kitchen and bathrooms and place in the cans outside, located behind the garage. If there is more garbage than what fits in the two bins outside, please take it with you.

ENTERTAINMENT The kitchen has an Apple Sound Pod to make meal prep more enjoyable--connect via bluetooth.
