We’ll give you plenty of space and keep our interactions to a minimum—unless you need us! If you do, we’re happy to help out and make sure you have an awesome stay. Enjoy! Other things to note Heads up: The ground around the house can get a bit soft, so watch your step when taking out the trash! The external cans are located being the a/c unit between the houses. Enjoy the neighborhood: Feel free to explore—it’s a favorite pastime for many. You can also relax on the front porch (it’s covered) or the back porch (it has an umbrella). Smoking policy: If you smoke, please do it off the property (starting at the sidewalk). Make sure to fully extinguish and properly dispose of cigarette butts and any other trash using the exterior bins provided between the houses. Pet-friendly housekeeping: We shampoo the carpets between pet stays to keep things fresh and allergy-friendly for our guests. We also ask that you don’t let your furry friends sleep on the beds or get up on the couches. If they’re small enough to cuddle, feel free to keep them on your lap while seated.
