USE OF BASSETT PLACE The entirety of our home is included in your stay, including the use of our back yard. Our detached garage and driveway are private, and access is not included in the stay. All entrances have video monitoring for accurate guest count and compliance with pet policy. GUEST & VISITOR POLICY Maximum occupancy is 10 guests (6 adults maximum, up to 4 children). Only registered guests are allowed on-site unless approved in advance. All guests or guests of guests (ie: visitors) must be approved in advance and will need to check in with your concierge. This is a cherished family home and is not suited for events or gatherings beyond the registered guests. Bassett Place is not suitable for events, parties, or group gatherings beyond those listed on the reservation. Unapproved visitors or activities will result in immediate removal without refund. PETS POLICY Bassett Place is our cherished family home, and for health reasons we must maintain a strict no-pets policy. We deeply respect the importance of service animals, but in this case we respectfully ask that guests who require one book alternative accommodations better suited to their needs. Our child has severe allergies, and for this reason, we are unable to host guests with pets or assistance animals of any kind. This also applies to pets visiting with approved visitors. Because Bassett Place is a private residence, service animal regulations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) do not apply. This is supported by ADA Title III, 28 CFR § 36.104, which defines what constitutes a “public accommodation.” As a private home, Bassett Place does not fall under this category. Airbnb has also provided us with a written exemption recognizing this policy. Any violation of this policy will result in early termination of the reservation without refund and a full sterilization cleaning fee. Thank you for understanding and for helping us keep our home safe and comfortable for our family and for all future guests. Other things to note AIR CONDITIONING (UPSTAIRS ONLY) Petaluma cools down nicely in the evenings thanks to our coastal location, and ocean breezes help keep the home naturally comfortable, particularly on the first floor (light jackets are often welcome at night). Because of this, the downstairs remains cool without the need for air conditioning. For added comfort during warmer days, air conditioning is provided in the upstairs bedrooms. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, concerns, or accommodation requests — we’re always happy to help ensure a comfortable stay. HEATING Our home features dual-zone heating for the cooler months, with smart thermostats that allow us to maintain a comfortable temperature in each area while ensuring the systems operate efficiently.

Our concierge ensures that every room is spotless and guest-ready, with fresh linens, fully sanitized surfaces, and carefully maintained systems throughout the home. All appliances and systems are professionally maintained and tested between stays. Please notify us immediately if anything isn’t functioning properly so we can address it in real time. We conduct a full physical and photo audit and inventory between each guest to insure the integrity of your experience as guests and ours as hosts.

DAILY CLEANING Daily cleaning of Bassett Place during your stay is available for an additional fee. Please inquire before booking. HISTORIC CHARM & WINDOW NOTES As our home is quite old, several windows in the formal living room and dining room have been sealed shut to preserve the integrity of the antique window frames and wavy glass panes. While these particular windows are non-operational, the rest of the home offers ample ventilation and natural light, with fully functional windows and doors that open to the gardens and porches. Old homes can be 'quirky' - it's part of their inherent charm. We hope you enjoy getting to know our home's idiosyncrasies, which she has earned through her age and storied past. FIREPLACE Our wood burning fireplace in the formal living room is NON-FUNCTIONAL and strictly decorative. It is not to be used under any circumstances.
