We sincerely appreciate all of our guests and do not see this happening, but we have been hosts for a while and some have a knack for breaking rules even though they are clearly stated.

Guests will have access to the whole house and drive way. Ensure no cars are blocking sidewalks/walkways in the neighborhood. Also, no parking on small street curbs. Please ensure all cars are adequately parked so it doesn’t become “the Air Bnb” home in the neighborhood with a bad rap. We love our neighbors and want to ensure their homeownership experience is not affected negatively in any way.
TRASH
If a large gathering creates excess trash within a one week time period. There will be a $100 excess trash charge. We really don't anticipate this happening.

We encourage all guests to be respectful of the space so the house doesn’t fill up with excess trash. This will be assessed during check out.
