House Rules and Safety Info

House Rules

Our homes are in residential communities populated by families and working professionals. We pride ourselves on being good neighbors and ask that you treat the home and our neighbors as you would your own.

As noted in your Rental Agreement, we have strict policies regarding noise, smoking, occupancy limits, property damage, and cleanliness.

By following these guidelines, you will ensure that your home stays in great condition for those who follow and that we uphold our values and our promise to our neighbors.

We strictly enforce the following rules:

  • No smoking, including vape*

  • No parties

  • No noise that can be heard from outside

  • No use of decks or outdoor space after 9 p.m.

  • No guests not named in the Rental agreement

  • No firearms

  • No drug use, including marijuana

  • No alcohol consumption by guests under 21

  • No fireworks/hazardous materials

  • No refunds for any reason

*A note about smoking: If you choose to smoke outside, please smoke away from the house and not on the decks. We ask that you respect our neighbors and not smoke near any residences. Furthermore, do not dispose of cigarette butts outside (including on the street, sidewalk or grassy medians).

Occupancy: Max occupancy of 13 is enforced. This is due to township and local regulations we must follow as a vacation home rental. Example: If there are ONLY adults and no children staying, then 11 is the maximum occupancy. If there is a mix of adults and children, then the maximum is 13 people total, with no more than 8 being adults. If more than 13 guests are found on the property, a fine of $50 per guest will be applied.

Fireplace and Grill: The indoor fireplace is currently non-functional but you're free to enjoy the outdoor fire-pit and gas grill. If you do plan on using the fire pit, firewood can be purchased at Walmart.

Pets: For a $100 per dog, per stay pet fee, dogs are welcome to come! Maximum of 2 dogs per stay. We kindly ask that dogs be kept off the furniture and off the white linens. Please take time to wipe dirty paws with the provided black make-up removal towels before they come inside. Since no one likes stepping in it, please be courteous to our next guests and pick up their poop. :) Unfortunately, we do not allow cats.

Check-in and Check-Out: Unless another agreed-upon time is discussed, check-in is at 4 pm and check-out is at 11 am. In order to ensure each guest has a clean welcoming space to come into we request that you honor the check-out time of 11 am. Each hour you are at the property after the agreed-upon check-out time will result in a $100 per hour charge.
