Parking is shared, please do not block their vehicle and please park in front of the 3rd garage stall door (you are also welcome to parking in the area to the far right of the garage if bringing more than one vehicle). Please respect their privacy and I absolutely request the same from them for you:-)
**Laundry Room**
There is a laundry room located inside of the adjacent home. On a case by case basis, we are happy to try to provide access to this potentially SHARED space during your stay as needed. We know how convenient it is to be able to utilize a WASHER and DRYER and are very happy to do our best to have this available for your use :-) Please inquire during your stay if you would like access to the laundry facility and we will coordinate (with any guests that may be occupying that home during your stay) and help make it happen for you! If needed, and pre-arranged, you would have access via a separate exterior door that leads directly into the enclosed laundry room.
