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. If your listing does not include the Garage, please do not enter or use the Garage. The only other exceptions will be any locked owners closets you may find in the home. Any vehicles entering a garage need to be clean and free of mud and snow before entering. Melting snow or dripping mud makes a huge mess in the garage and may result in a forfeiture of your security deposit if we are forced to spend extra time cleaning up after you. • 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. Deck areas will not be shoveled by our crew. If you choose to use outside areas in the winter, you will 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. Please DO NOT start the laundry. 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 indicated in the house manual and/or the touch screen kiosk in the home, please take the trash cans out to the street the evening before the indicated trash day, please bring them back to where you found them once empty. •We provide a link to our digital home guide with information on the house, the area, restaurants, attractions, etc. • A final notice will be sent to you on check in day with arrival instructions, driving directions, door codes and other useful info for your arrival.
