HOUSE RULES

(Most of this is to cover me legally in case anyone gets stupid)
GENERAL
• Leave the space as you found it.
• All guests and their visitors must follow these house rules.
• Must be 25+ to book. Under 25? Have your parents contact me—I make exceptions, especially with good reviews.
• Instant Book is for travelers, not locals
• This is not a party house.
SAFETY & CONDUCT
• You're responsible for the safety of your kids and dogs, and for respecting neighbors.
• No candles or incense indoors. Outdoor mosquito candles are okay—in the backyard only. No open flames (except a match or lighter).
• Keep noise down, especially 11pm–8am. The stairs share a wall with my bedroom—please don’t stomp.
• Drunken, disorderly conduct = immediate eviction with no refund.
ENERGY & CLEANLINESS
• Turn off lights, A/C, fans, and TVs when not in use.
• Do not leave A/C running if gone for more than 2 hours—ask and I’ll cool the place down before you return.
• Close windows if it’s raining or when you leave.
• Take out trash and recycling to backyard bins (bags are under wastebasket liners—ask for more if needed).
• Do not leave cups, cans, or cigarette butts on the front porch or backyard—it's a shared space.
OCCUPANCY & VISITORS
• Max overnight occupancy: 10 people, including children. Infants (under 2) must be added to the reservation. Port-a-crib available—bring your own baby linens.
• Youth groups may exceed max with sleeping bags—ask first.
• Max 6 visitors at a time unless pre-approved for events.
• Overnight visitors are okay, but must be reported and will incur extra fees of $25 per person per night.
• All guests are responsible for their visitors following house rules.
FURNITURE & DAMAGE
• Move furniture for comfort—return it before checkout.
• Got little kids? Move breakables out of reach. Take photos to restore layout later.
• Spills? Dog pee? Tell me ASAP. I’ve got a cleaner that might save you money.
• Pet owners are liable for damage.
• Everything is photographed—break it, lose it, steal it…you buy it.
EMERGENCY EXIT
• Kitchen back door = emergency only. Triggers automatic police dispatch.
o False alarm = $300 fine.
o Unauthorized entry into basement/home = criminal charges.
PARKING & SECURITY
• Free street parking, but watch for street-cleaning signs—they tow.
• Park close to others to maximize space. Lock your car and don’t leave valuables.
DOGS & FEES
• Dogs: $20/night per dog (limit 2—exceptions possible, ask). Not included in online totals—pay cash upon arrival if not pre-arranged.
• No fireworks—I love dogs too much.
CHECK-IN / CHECK-OUT
• Early check-in allowed if ready—no fee.
• Late check-in is fine—just coordinate this with me.
• One towel set every 2 weeks:
• Dyed hair? I’ve got special towels and pillowcases—just ask, or you'll be charged for stains.
GRILLING
• No pots or pans on the gas grill. I have the tools—just ask.
CLEANLINESS & ISSUES
• On arrival, if something isn’t clean—call or text me right away. I’ll fix it. Don’t leave it in a review. And please forgive me….it was an oversight.
LEGAL STUFF
• Breaking these rules = breach of rental agreement and may result in eviction, charges, or police involvement.
• Booking through Airbnb, VRBO, Bookingdotcom, etc., confirms your agreement to these terms—no signature required.

I'm confused why you rated 3 stars on cleanliness when the first comment you made was how clean the place was. I wish you would have pointed out what didn't meet your expectations as I always strive for 5 stars.

We were a group of five and the apartment was comfortable hosting the group. Everything you need was there and Jamie, the host, was very helpful, friendly and always available. As a host ourselves we appreciate her attention to detail like checking on us during our stay. The only 'downside' to our booking were the high hostess fees and mandotory non-refundable insurance. Our stay was comfortable and we can recommend it to other guests.

Your higher fees included the additional 3 guests plus your cleaning fee. These charges are often typical with rentals that are not one flat fee. I am glad you enjoyed your stay.

Jamie's place provided us with everything & more! We couldn't be happier with our stay & we definitely plan on making this location our home away from home when we visit our northern family. We were thankful for a room to play with toys & books; our granddaughter kept us busy playing every time they visited us. Thank you Jamie! It was so nice meeting you & also meeting Jim. We felt safe & at home.
