Other things to note
CLEANING FEE
So there's no miscommunication, we collect a cleaning fee to get the house ready for your stay; it is NOT to clean up during or after your stay. If this is an automatic negative in your book, then sadly perhaps this isn't the right stay for you. Otherwise, prior to checkout, we do ask you to take care of the following to-do list:

1) start the dishwasher

2) throw trash (including opened personal food items from the fridge) in bins located inside the garage*

3) Put used towels, bath mats, and kitchen towels in the laundry baskets found inside the bedroom closets

That’s it! :)

* If Sunday night falls within your stay, please roll bins out to the edge of the driveway for early Monday waste pickup.
