This means it has great character and unique charm, but it also means there is only one bathroom (on the second floor), and stairs that creak near the top. Sound machines are provided in every bedroom for light sleepers. WHAT WE PROVIDE • Shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash are available in refillable containers as we do our part to help the environment. Guests are welcome to supply their own toiletries if desired. • Laundry detergent. • Coffee, creamer, and sugar are available, however we highly recommend checking out one of Appleton's local coffee shops like Copper Rock Coffee Company while you are in town. LONG TERM STAYS • Interested in staying for more than 30 days? Reach out for long-term pricing. Note that a separate lease may be required through our company, Home Base Rentals, to protect both of us. Stays of 30 days or more also have a cleaning fee of $225. Guest access Guests will have access to the entire house. Check-in is super simple with the keypad located on the side door. You will receive your private door code approximately 24 hours before check-in. Other things to note Off-street parking is available for 2 vehicles. This house is located in a family neighborhood so noise level must be kept to a minimum. We also stay here often with our own children when we are visiting family in town. If you are looking for a party home or are disrespectful to other people's property, this is not the right place for you.
