Owners closets will be locked but you'll have plenty of storage space for your own items. Washer and dryer are only available to guests who stay more than 5 nights. Other things to note Please read house rules before booking. The house is located on a main road so there is some traffic noise. However, majority of the outdoor space is behind the house and away from the road. We provide sound machines in all bedrooms for guests for light sleepers. All the bedrooms are on the second floor. Please note, to access bedroom four (queen bed), you will have to go through the second floor bathroom. Guests will have access to the propane grill in the spring and summer months. Please scrape and clean the grill before and after using and leave in fair condition. Guests are responsible for filling up the propane tank at the local super market/gas station if it's empty. Up to 2 house trained dogs are allowed ($50 pet fee per dog). We provide water and food bowls, treats and wipes for paws. Please let us know before booking as only pre approved dogs are allowed.
