The space
Our 2-car garage is made into game room where you can spend hours playing games together, or sit out by the patio overlooking the grassy area watching as your children squeal with excitement on the swing set. As the sunsets you can find yourself around the campfire reminiscing about the "good ole days" or sitting in the hot tub relaxing with those you love.

We've got folding tables you can use to serve food outside along with some folding chairs.

1. General Rules
Respect the Property: Please treat our home with the same care and respect you would your own.

No Smoking: Smoking of any kind (including cigarettes, cigars, vapes, and e-cigarettes) is strictly prohibited inside the house. No smoking of any kind outside the home and all evidence must be taken with you. Imagine, a child picking up a butt or vape dispenser and putting it in their mouth. GROSS!

Maximum Occupancy: The maximum number of guests is [number] people. Only registered guests are permitted to stay overnight. Please inform us of any additional day visitors.

Conservation: To help protect the environment and keep our costs down, please turn off lights and the air conditioner when you leave the house.

2. Service Animals (Important Legal Information)
This section must be handled with care to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Airbnb's policies. In Florida, Airbnb rentals are considered "public accommodations" and are subject to ADA laws.

Service Animals are Welcome: We are required to accommodate service animals. Service animals are not considered pets.

What is a Service Animal? A service animal is a dog (or in Florida, a miniature horse) that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability.

Disclosure is Appreciated, but Not Required: While you are not required to disclose that you are bringing a service animal prior to your stay, we appreciate a heads-up to help us prepare for your visit.

What We Can Ask: We are legally permitted to ask only two questions:

Is the service animal required because of a disability?

What work or task has the animal been trained to perform?
We cannot ask about the guest's disability, require documentation, or ask the animal to demonstrate its task.

Responsibility of the Guest: The service animal must be harnessed, leashed, or tethered unless these devices interfere with the animal's work or the individual's disability prevents their use. The animal must be under the control of the handler at all times.

Removal of a Service Animal: A host may ask a guest to remove a service animal if:

The animal is out of control and the handler does not take effective action to control it.

The animal is not housebroken.

The animal's behavior poses a direct threat to the health or safety of others.

Damages: The guest is financially responsible for any damage caused by their service animal that is beyond normal wear and tear. This includes damage to furniture, floors, or other property.

3. Insect & Wildlife Interactions (Essential for Florida)
A Fact of Life: Welcome to Pennsylvania! It's a beautiful state, but it is also home to a diverse population of insects and wildlife. We take every precaution to keep our home pest-free, but it's not possible to eliminate all insects, especially during certain times of the year.

Pest Control: Our property is professionally treated on a regular basis to prevent pests. Please do not leave doors or windows open for extended periods without a screen, as this is the primary way insects can enter the home.

Food and Waste: To avoid attracting unwanted guests (both critters and insects), please ensure all food is properly stored in sealed containers and any food waste is disposed of in the sealed kitchen trash can. Please take the trash out regularly, especially before you leave.

Reporting Concerns: If you encounter a significant insect or pest issue, please notify us immediately. We will do our best to address the problem as quickly as possible. Please note that while we will address the issue, a few ants or a stray cockroach is not an automatic reason for a refund.

4. Rules for Extended Stays & Work Crews
Weekly Check-ins: For all stays over seven nights, we require a quick weekly check-in. This is a non-intrusive way for us to ensure the property remains in good condition and that you have everything you need for a comfortable stay. We will contact you via the Airbnb app to schedule a convenient time. This is not a formal inspection, but a chance for us to say hello, see how things are going, and address any potential maintenance issues.

Additional Cleaning Fee: For stays longer than seven nights, an additional cleaning fee of $100 will be added to your reservation. This fee covers the cost of a mid-stay or post-stay deep clean, which is often necessary to maintain the property's high standards during extended use. This is separate from the standard cleaning fee.

Respectful Use: Please be mindful that our home is in a residential neighborhood. We ask that all work crew members respect the property and our neighbors by observing quiet hours and keeping noise to a minimum. Please do not store work-related materials, equipment, or vehicles in the yard or on the street. All company vehicles must be parked in the designated driveway.

5. Rental Agreement and Guest Requirements
Rental Agreement Required: To ensure the safety and security of our property, we require all guests with fewer than three completed stays on Airbnb, or a rating of less than 5 stars, to sign a separate rental agreement.

Process: Upon booking, you will receive a digital copy of our rental agreement via the Airbnb messaging platform. This document outlines the same house rules you have read here, along with liability and property protection clauses.

Timeline: We ask that the agreement be signed within 48 hours of your reservation confirmation. If you are not comfortable with the terms of the agreement, you may decline to sign, and we will work with you to cancel the reservation for a full refund, as per Airbnb's policy.

Purpose: This agreement is in place to protect our property and provides a clear, legally binding understanding of our house rules. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and well-cared-for home for all guests.

6. Pool and Hot Tub Usage Rules
No Diving or Horseplay: The pool and hot tub are for your enjoyment, but please do not dive or engage in any roughhousing. The pool is not deep enough for diving.

Supervise Children: Children must be supervised by an adult at all times while in the pool or hot tub area. There is no lifeguard on duty.

No Food or Glassware: Please do not bring food, drinks in glass containers, or sharp objects into the pool or hot tub area. Accidents with broken glass can be very dangerous and require the pool to be drained, which will result in a significant charge to the guest.

Rinse Before Entry: Please rinse off lotions and oils before entry. This helps keep the water clean and balanced.

Absolutely No Soaps, Lotions, or Oils: Do not add any soaps, bubble baths, lotions, oils, or any other foreign substances to the pool or hot tub. These substances can damage the filtration system, cause chemical imbalances, and require extensive cleaning and repairs. This will result in a minimum fee of $[amount, e.g., $500] to cover the costs of a full drain, cleaning, and chemical rebalancing.

Hot Tub Specifics:

Do not tamper with the hot tub settings or temperature controls.

Please limit hot tub usage to a reasonable time and noise level, especially during quiet hours.

The hot tub is for adult use only.

Cover When Not in Use: For safety and to keep the water clean, please replace the pool and hot tub covers when you are finished using them. (if applicable)

Damage Clause: Guests will be held responsible for any damage to the pool or hot tub, including filters, pumps, and liners, that is caused by misuse or negligence.

Please respect our space. If you do not know how something works, please reach out and ask!
