All we ask is that you treat this residence the exact same way that you would want a guest to treat your own home :)
Please also acknowledge the following:
1. Based on past experiences, we do not host groups who are all 21 years of age or younger. If your group is 21 years of age or younger, please do not place a reservation without written pre-approval from us. Failure to do so will result in termination of your reservation.
2. Locals are not allowed to place a booking without pre-approval from us. This is to prevent locals from using our residence as a party house.
3. Please note that we only release door codes to the person who booked the reservation, and you may be asked to provide valid, government issued photo ID before check in.
4. All guests must be accounted for in the reservation. This means all guests entering the residence/building at any point in time counts as a guest. In other words, the definition of a guest is not limited to only those people planning on sleeping inside the unit, but to all guests planning to be inside the unit at any given time. For example, if 6 people are going to “hang out” inside the unit, but only 2 people plan to sleep over, then the guest count selected during the booking should be “6” not “2.” Any extra guests not disclosed before arrival will lead to an immediate termination of the reservation and/or a fee per extra guest, this decision is up to the property management discretion. We will also seek compensation for any damages that are found upon our subsequent inspection of the property. We do have a camera at the front door for safety.
5. No parties/events. We have close relationships with our neighbors, and we respect their rights as homeowners. Therefore, we will know if parties are being held. If this rule is not followed, your reservation will be terminated, and we will seek compensation for any damages that are found upon our subsequent inspection of the property.
6. Not for commercial use or special occasions without pre-approval (weddings, bachelor parties, birthdays, commercials, bridal showers, photoshoots, etc.). We will consider your request if you notify us in advance. Failure to inform us in advance will lead to termination of your reservation.
7. Please note that this is a smoke-free/drug free environment. If any smoking/vaping/drugs are detected either within the unit or in the common areas of the property, we will immediately terminate the reservation and/or apply a fee of $500 for smoking/vaping/drugs, this will be up to the management's discretion. There will also be an added charge to remove any odors remaining. We will seek compensation for any damages that are found upon our subsequent inspection of the property.
8. Pets are welcome in this rental unit for an additional fee but must be approved prior to arrival. To maintain cleanliness, pets are not permitted on beds or furniture. Guests are responsible for cleaning up after their pets and disposing of waste properly. Any damage caused by pets will be the guest's financial responsibility.

We do have a noise level monitor in the home to ensure safety.
10. Please ensure to check-out on-time. We need to have our cleaners clean the unit on-time for the next guest to check-in. If you require an earlier check-in or a later check-out please request it in advance and we will do our best to accommodate you.

By accepting this reservation, it is agreed that all guests are expressly assuming the risk of any harm arising from their use of the premises. Guests recognize that they may personally purchase insurance to protect themselves in such events.
13. Nature is part of the charm of this location, but that also means you may share your stay with some local wildlife—including the tiny, crawly kind! Depending on the season and weather, you might see mosquitoes, bees, gnats, moths, lovebugs, ants, spiders, beetles, roaches, ladybugs, stink bugs, and more around the property. We do have regular pest control, but we can’t guarantee you won’t see a bug or two, and we are unable to provide refunds for natural encounters. To help keep critters outside where they belong, please keep doors closed, store food properly, and dispose of trash in a timely manner. If you come across anything concerning, please contact us through your booking platform’s messaging system, and we’ll respond as quickly as possible.
