• Prior to booking, please review and ensure you are comfortable with the House Rules and Safety & Property information section of this listing.

—Children and Infants—

• We are parents ourselves and understand how fast children (especially young) can get into trouble and danger and have taken measures to make the home safer for children and infants. Our “childproofing” measures and advertising of “suitable for children and infants” does not mean you can leave your children and infants unattended and unsupervised without risk. Please do not leave children unattended and without adult supervision.

• Safety notes:

~ Bedroom 3 has outlet covers on all outlets not covered up by furniture. Additional outlet covers are stored in the bedroom 3 dresser.

~ Bedrooms 2 and 3 have safety devices to help prevent an unlocked window from opening wide enough for a toddler to get through. Please note—no other windows in the home have this protection.

—Housekeeping—

• We trust that you will be responsible guests and treat us, our property, and our neighbors with respect.

• Please try to remember to remove your outdoor shoes at the main entryway while knowing that we understand shoes may be worn for medical or comfort reasons.

• We do not charge a cleaning fee and clean the house ourselves to pass the savings onto you so it is very helpful if you can at least help with pickup in these three main areas—
1) Please wash the dishes that you use,
2) note that food left out (not in containers) or uncleaned food messes will attract ants, and
3) throw excess trash and recyclables into trash bins (black lid trash, blue lid recyclables) located out front on the side of the garage.

• Don't worry about laundering your bedding or used towels before you leave. Used towels can be left hanging or on the ground and know that bedding can just stay on the beds.

• Please keep the bedding and other linens at the home. We provide outdoor-use towels located on the main entryway shelf for outside use so please feel free to take these outside with you. You can hang any that you use up on the entryway coat rack when you bring them back inside.

• Our operating license allows for two passenger vehicles to be parked in the driveway. No RVs or trailers are permitted to be parked in the driveway or private road. Usually there is free parking along the nearby city street, but this is not guaranteed and we can not officially offer you this parking.

Also about parking, the trash pickup is on Tuesdays, so if you can remember to park to leave enough room for the trash collector worker to get through to take the bin down to the road and back up the driveway that would be appreciated.

• Spaces may need to be inspected or serviced. Minimum 24 hour notice will be provided to guest(s) unless emergency access is required.

—Children and Infants—

• Please do not not leave children unattended or without adult supervision.

—Animals—

• $200 pet fee (maximum two dogs).

• Well behaved dogs only, maximum two (no cats allowed please). No dogs <1 yr old and we prefer them spayed/neutered.

• Please crate pets if you need to leave unattended. Crate available upon request. Leaving them locked in a room or on patio but free to run around is not crating your pet. Also, please supervise if not crated.

• Proof of shots and updated shot record may be required.

• Pets must be leashed when outside.

• Please try to keep pets off furniture and/or bed.

• Loud or unruly pets may be asked to leave.

• Located at the end of the lane, about 200 feet to the south, is a common grassy area for pets to do their business. Please pick up after your pet immediately. To help us maintain the "No Cleaning Fee" policy, please ensure the yard is free of pet waste upon checkout.

• Vacuum/sweep after your pet if it sheds excessively.

• The dog paw towels are provided for drying your dogs after a bath or when coming in wet. These are located on the main entryway shelf.
