Please note this is our personal home away from home. We are a family of six and sports keeps us from enjoying the condo more often. We ask that you treat the house as if it was yours. We also have neighbors we need to get along with for the foreseeable future and so keeping respectful hours, cleaning up trash and being a generally nice person would be appreciated. We are very close by and will do everything we can to keep you comfortable. We do have some personal items clearly labeled as such and we ask that you please let them undisturbed.
We are in a bottom floor condominium, so access is easier, but on a rare occasion we do hear our neighbors upstairs. It’s never disturbed us, but in important to note.
The crawl space for the entire unit is behind one of the doors in our place, so if there was an emergency the property manager would need access.
You will use a personal code sent 1-2 days prior to your arrival to the August Lock to open the door.
We have four kids so we understand accidental things and wear and tear, but negligence or theft is different. You are limited to two cars in the parking lot of the condo and will have parking permits provided for you upon opening the condo. These are a $10 replacement charge each if you take them or lose them (we have to purchase more from our property association).
We will provide a list of house rules, amenities and further information on booking.
