Arrival Ease: In my Welcome Email, I give specifics such as address, where to park and how to enter the room. There is no “check-in” process involving me as your Host. Your room will be clean and ready whenever your party arrives after 3pm, and you can arrive any time day or night. Guests are welcome to use the pool which is open from June to August, and the yard which is shared. Other things to note If you typically use a washcloth to remove makeup or mascara, I kindly request that you either bring your own washcloth for this purpose or consider using makeup remover pads. We ask that our washcloths not be used for makeup removal. It's a bit perplexing, but it appears that the makeup products nowadays contain something that no amount of SHOUT or Oxyclean can effectively remove. Additionally, it's worth noting that Ashland experiences a regular mowing and blowing of lawns every Monday. To make your stay more enjoyable, I've arranged for our gardener (who also maintains neighboring yards) to begin work after 9 am. On Tuesdays, the trash pickup can sometimes seem like an ongoing process. Furthermore, we have two older dogs, a lab, and a shepherd. They have their own designated area where they like to relax, and they are quite friendly if you ever want to enjoy some quality time with our furry companions.
