wow, this sounds fun - so what is the catch?”
there is no catch, we strive to be pretty awesome! however, there are the things you will need to know-
security cameras: for the safety of our guests and to maintain a safe environment, we have exterior security cameras with audio and video capabilities installed and active This statement is required by this platform, we very much respect the privacy of our guests while in an active reservation. It also is critical to us to monitor the home throughout all seasons, specifically when the home is not occupied. Thus, we have four cameras installed. We have one camera facing the front of the home from the front door, one over the garage, one facing the rear driveway and one facing the north side of the lot. There are no cameras inside the home.
important information for summer home maintenance: we take pride in our landscaping and have a service come to the home once a week for maintenance This will include mowing and anything else as needed. This typically is done within 30 minutes and will not be too early in the morning.
cleaning fee: 100% of our cleaning fee goes directly to our amazing cleaning crew who helps us keep the property to the highest standards we are lucky to have them, they are pretty awesome!
security deposit: upon booking we will ask for a $30000 security deposit in form of a HOLD. We have not had to use this as our guests have been amazing! We don't cry over spilled milk, this is only if something significant happened such as a broken t.v or major appliances as an example. Deposit to be processed by host on guest's credit card. We understand things will be lost and broken, we don't sweat the small stuff. The security deposit is automatically released after 48 hours of departure.
occupancy: maximum occupancy of 17 must be adhered to, this includes all ages in order to comply with our insurance We welcome family reunions and get-togethers, but please no "parties" - loud music, excessive alcohol, etc. Sometimes you may want to have visitors outside of the guests on the reservation, if so please let us know in advance.
check out instructions -
we love to be transparent! upon checkout, here is what we ask for:
1 Please dispose kitchen trash and any extra food in the garbage bins. (If your stay is over a Monday night, can we trouble you to pull the garbage cans to the street or bring them in.)
2 If you have time, we would greatly appreciate the grills (BBQ or Blackstone) to be burned\scraped off. We don't need this spotless, but it would greatly help our small cleaning crew move through the home quicker.
3 Please make sure that any amenities that use propane is off (outdoor deck heater & BBQ's).
4 Please make sure that all doors and windows are shut and locked up.
that is it, we take care of the rest!
house rules - these guidelines help us maintain the integrity of the home so we can share it for years to come in general, we ask that you treat the home with care!
1 Please do not wear shoes inside.
2 If you visit the beach, please wash off all sand prior to entering the home.
3 no smoking indoor or outdoors (vaping ok outdoors)
4 We often run our sprinklers in the early morning during the summer, please do not leave items on the lawn overnight.
5 Please use the counters and table space with care, specifically no hot containers or pots on counters or table tops. (Trivets are provided.)
