A couple of ground rules to take note of that will make your stay more enjoyable and keep the neighbors and wildlife happy. • Check-in time is generally 4:00 pm. Early check-in is not allowed unless otherwise pre-arranged and may involve a fee.. When you arrive, please inspect the home for cleanliness. If ANYTHING is not acceptable, do not hesitate to call us. • Please observe an outdoor quiet time from 10pm to 8am each day. Our neighbor relationships are very important to us. If you do plan to be outside during the quiet hours, please be respectful and keep the noise level such that the neighbors will not be disturbed. • As the only occupants of the home, there are no shared spaces. Every area in the home is for your use. The only other exceptions will be any locked owners closets you may find in the home and the north garage area. The south garage of the home has been converted into a small game room with ping pong, etc. Cars cannot be parked in the garage. • Our grounds maintenance crew is responsible for both warm weather landscaping and cold weather snow and ice removal. After 4 inches of snow, our snow removal crew will come out and plow the uncovered areas of the driveway and walkways as well as any stairs or porch areas. If you need to leave before our snow removal team arrives, you may have to do your own snow removal. Some deck areas may not be shoveled by our crew. If you choose to use outside areas in the winter, you may need to shovel it yourself. Please use caution during cold weather conditions. Ice / Snow may be underfoot and may also shed from the roof. Front porch steps can be particularly treacherous. If you feel there is an unsafe condition with the snow on the ground or roof, please advise us immediately! • Please only use the keypad deadbolt locks to lock the doors. PLEASE DO NOT USE THE DOOR HANDLE LOCKS OR YOU MAY LOCK YOURSELF OUT OF THE HOME! • Checkout time is strictly at 10am. Late checkout is not allowed unless otherwise pre-arranged and may involve additional fees. • Upon departure, please wash all dishes and load/start the dishwasher. Please bring all dirty towels to the laundry room but please DO NOT start the washing machine. Leave bed linens on the beds. Generally, please leave the house in order. If the cleaning crew has to do any sort of damage control or extra work, you may be charged an additional fee. • Trash day is early Monday so we ask that you take the trash to the curb by Sunday evening. You will receive reminders about this during your stay. Please bring them back to where you found them once empty. If large amounts of trash or overflowing trash cans are found at checkout, you may be charged for trash disposal. • As your arrival date approaches you will receive a digital home guide via email and text with arrival information, door codes, details about the home and its systems, local attractions, restaurants, shops, etc. • The digital home guide will also contain house rules, driving directions, and other useful info for your arrival.
