Parking: Please read through the parking description and review the picture of parking spaces to plan your parking. 1 closed parking (garage remote will be available once you enter the unit) and 2 driveway parking. There are 3 garages. You can park 1 car inside the rightmost garage and 2 cars on the driveway in front of the middle and the rightmost garage. The closed garage is a standard size garage. I used to have long term tenants who parked their minivan in it. If you are new to this space, then it will difficult to park minivan inside so it is OK to park SUV, sedan or compact car. To pull out the only the car that is inside the garage, you have to pull out your car(s) parked on the driveway first so if there is a need to frequently pull out only the car parked inside the garage then it is best not park inside; you can park either on the driveway or I can arrange for street parking permit. Please maneuver your car carefully on the driveway at all times as the space is very limited. It is still possible as my past long term tenants, friends and I have done all the times with no issues. Please do not attempt to park more than 2 cars on the driveway because it is not possible with space provided and also avoid parking on the backyard lawn grass. If you have bicycles then it is OK to park on the lawn grass. For your own safety, please do not leave any valuables inside the car and always lock your car.

Free street parking is available. Free permit is needed for weekdays overnight parking from 2 AM to 5 AM. No need of permits for weekend overnight parking. For weekday parking, we need to reserve in advance; I can do that once I receive your license plate number, state of registration, Vehicle Make and Model. For your own safety, please do not leave any valuables inside the car and always lock your car.

Staying with Children: Please ensure that they do not draw pictures on the wall or spill any ink on the carpet or any other furniture. Bring your own drawing book. If there are ink stains anywhere, then extra cleaning fee will be applied. If they play with the toys and read children's books, then please ensure that they are all back to its basket. We have had situations where the children packed the toys/ games/ books. Later, the parents mailed them back to me.

Pets: Pet fee indicated is for one pet per stay. Please do not bring a pet and expect not to pay a fee. In the past, guests have debated about it with reasons such as - we are only here 2 days, it is a very small dog, the dog will stay with our local relatives (which btw never happened; the dog stayed in the unit) etc. etc. I have always charged the fee. I usually send a payment request and if the guest does not respond then I ask support who in turn will charge the credit card of the guest. We can avoid all the awkwardness if you just pay the fee upfront during reservation and enjoy your stay with your pet(s). Also if you decide to bring a pet after you booked the place, then you can alter the reservation to add the pet. If you have more than one pet, then please contact me. You must provide details of the pets before the booking to check if it is OK to bring them. Cats and dogs are allowed. Pets must be trained. The nails must be trimmed. The pet must not harm or threaten other guests/ host on this property and neighbors. Some neighbors have pets so the guests must watch their pets to avoid conflicts. With some responsibility, you can enjoy your stay along with your pets. IMPORTANT: Please bring your own pet bed or blanket. Pets are not allowed to use the beds, couches, blankets or other furniture for sleeping.

No smoking inside the building and balconies: you can smoke 10 away from the building. Drugs are strictly prohibited. There should be no smell of weed Cannabis anywhere on the property. If smoking is done inside the building or there is smell of weed Cannabis anywhere on the property, then there is a fine of $500 and termination of your reservation.

If you are planning to have a get together party, then please inform me before the booking. There is a refundable deposit of $300. This will be refunded after you checkout. Very loud music will not be allowed. We have had issues with some loud parties in the past where the guest played loud music past midnight and between 2 AM to 3 AM. If you receive a message to lower the volume then you must comply. Lower the volume during quiet hours. Failure to inform us about your party in advance or not lowering the volume when you receive a message from me will lead to termination of your reservation. We would love our guests to have a good time and being cognizant of the house rules and the neighborhood.

About Shorewood: Shorewood is a unique and pedestrian-friendly urban village styled in the European tradition. This is the first suburb north of the city of Milwaukee on the shores of Lake Michigan - bordered by Lake Michigan on the east, the Milwaukee River on the west, and the Village of Whitefish Bay to the north. The village was originally incorporated in 1900 as the Village of East Milwaukee, making Shorewood the fourth oldest suburb in the Milwaukee area. The name of the Village was changed to Shorewood in 1917.
