Please take a moment to read everything on this listing page. If everything is agreeable, great! When you complete your reservation you’ll receive our check-in form which is required to be filled out and signed prior to check-in, or else your entrance code will not be generated. For your safety and ours, the check-in form requires you to upload an ID, take a selfie and sign the house rules. If you do not agree with the house rules, you are welcome to cancel your reservation within 24 hours of booking without penalty.

The property requires one step for access and the fireplace is for decorative purposes only. Your safety matters, so this property features one exterior security camera located on the front porch and facing the front outdoor entry. The camera faces outward and does not look into interior spaces. The camera records video and sound when activated by motion and will be on for the duration of your stay. Additionally, the home is equipped with an Ecobee Smart Thermostat with sensors installed in the walls of each room. Ecobee sensors help regulate the temperature. The sensors are beige, one inch in diameter, and have an image of a bee on them. Please do not touch the sensors.

For stays longer than 30 days, please contact the host prior to booking.

While our first priority is ensuring our guests enjoy their stay, we have an equally important commitment to the safety and well-being of our neighbors and community. Please review all the house rules listed below prior to confirming your reservation.

We are equally committed to making sure the house is ready for your arrival as well.

GUEST
You must be at least 25 years old to reserve our property.

Guests who wish to make a reservation must have a completed profile on the booking platform, including an email, phone number, and a clear photograph of your face (so we know the person booking is in fact the person checking in).

Our NoiseAware technology monitors noise levels and occupancy to help us maintain a respectful atmosphere.
