CHECK IN INSTRUCTIONS & HOUSE/FARM RULES


CHECK IN (5:00PM-9:00PM):  Please enter the door code sent to you that will work on front entry.   Walk through Guest House upon arrival and let us know if you have any questions.  Early Check In @ 1:00PM or 3:00PM can be requested upto 7 days prior to check in date for a pre-determined rate. Fee for late requests are increased by 50%.  You are only eligible for Early Check In after verifying property availability, cleaning staff availability, early checkin fee payment, and owner approval.

HOUSE RULES:  No smoking.  No pets.  No loud music.  No parties.  No theft. No damages.  No unregistered guests are allowed on the property.  Respect other guests and neighbors privacy. Keep personal items in your room all common areas clean. Keep the outside doors/windows and suite/room doors locked at all times. Quiet Hours 9:00PM to 9:00AM daily.  If rules are broken, neighbors complain, other guests complain, police/fire dispatched, you could be subject to immediate eviction plus financial and legal penalties.  Breaking rules could result in loss of deposit, additional cleaning fees, replacement/repair cost, loss of full cost of reservation, property theft, and reimbursement of owners legal fees.

PARKING:  Use crushed rock parking lot in front of guest house.  Do not park or block the neighbors driveways, gates or garage doors.

SECURITY SYSTEM: Do not unplug or touch unless there is a medical, fire, or police emergency.  First responders will be immediately be dispatched.  Cameras are monitoring common areas for your protection.

WIFI:  Network and password information will be sent via text after checkin.

THERMOSTAT:  Temperature is difficult to regulate in a large open room; therefore, the thermostat is locked and on a seasonal daily schedule.  The Heating/Cooling system is preset to adjust temp based on outside temp, season, and activity.  If doors/windows are left open, the Heating/Cooling system will automatically bump up/down temperature then eventually shut off if doors or windows are left open for an extended period of time.  This is done when it is warm and humid to protect Heating/Cooling system from damage due to system overload.  Doors/Windows left open in the cooler months will lead to excessive heating costs and freezing/breaking pipes.  Leaving windows or doors open is explicitly against house rules. 

TV & MUSIC:    Roku TV's will be in Guest Mode which will allow you to sign into your personal streaming accounts (Netflix, Hulu, Sling TV, Spotify, Pandora, Sirus XM, etc).  Live TV available via Roku Channel.  Make sure to logout of your streaming accounts prior to checkout. We do not support additional devices connected to provided Roku TV.

Please clean return any kitchen dishes where you got them from.
