Other Things to Note:

House Notes Worth Knowing



Full how-to guides for the hot tub, sauna, cold plunge, and bikes live in your guest app — open it on day one and you'll be a pro by sundown

Quiet hours are observed after 10 PM out of respect for our wonderful Brookside neighbors

Bikes & helmets are first-come, first-served within your group — please return them to the garage at the end of each ride



A Quick Note on Hiccups:

Even when a home is dialed in, the occasional small thing can pop up mid-stay — a finicky remote, a light bulb that picks the worst moment to quit, a hot tub that needs a quick adjustment. The second something feels off, isn't working the way it should, or just isn't sitting right with you, please send us a message. A heads-up while you're still under our roof gives us the chance to send help, swap something out, or troubleshoot in real time so the rest of your stay rolls along beautifully. Hearing about an issue after you've already driven home leaves us with no way to actually solve it for you, and that's the last thing any of us want.



⚠️ IMPORTANT GROUND RULES ⚠️



No smoking inside

Strictly no-party, no-event property — no gatherings beyond registered guests

Respect the neighbors

Violation of no-party rule = immediate removal, forfeiture of rent, and $500 fine



Interaction with Guests:

Around If You Need Us, Out of the Way If You Don't



Your stay is fully private — self check-in with your keypad code means you can come and go on your own terms, no front-desk small talk required

We're a quick message away through the Guesty inbox or your guest app, ready to jump in with restaurant tips, hot tub questions, or anything that comes up

Our goal is simple: be invisible until the moment you'd like us to be helpful
