🏡 House Rules – AKA How to Be an Awesome Guest Welcome! We love sharing our home with great guests like you. To keep things running smoothly (and to stay friends with our neighbors 😉), here are some simple house rules. We promise we’re not strict—but we do care about keeping things nice for everyone! --- 1️⃣ Be a Good Human – Respect the House & Neighbors - Treat this home like it’s your own (unless you leave dishes in the sink at home… then treat it better 😉). - Be cool with our neighbors—no late-night karaoke battles or surprise drum solos. - If something breaks, let us know. We’re nice, we promise! --- 2️⃣ Booking & Stay Requirements - Minimum Age: Guests must be 21+ to book. - Rental Agreement: A rental agreement must be signed before check-in. - Extended Stays: Stays over 28 days require additional approval. --- 3️⃣ Pets & Smoking 🐾🚭 - Pets: Up to 2 dogs allowed with a $50 pet fee per pet. Just clean up after them—even if they give you sad puppy eyes. - No smoking indoors. If you light up inside, we’ll charge you a cleaning fee so high you’ll think you bought a new couch. 🚭 --- 4️⃣ No Parties, But Have Fun! 🎉 (Within Reason) - We want you to have a great time, but this isn’t a frat house. No wild parties or extra guests without permission. -Quiet-ish Hours: We get it—you’re on vacation! Just keep things chill between 11 PM - 8 AM so we don’t get angry texts from the neighbors. --- 5️⃣ Parking 🚗 (Don’t Be That Guest Who Parks Like a Maniac) - Park only in the 2 driveways provided. - 🚫 No parking on the street, in neighbors' driveways, or on the lawn. We love our neighbors and don’t want them calling us at 2 AM about random cars in their yard. --- 6️⃣ Firepit & Grill Rules – Let’s Keep It Safe & Fun! 🔥🍔 - Firepit Use: - Feel free to enjoy the firepit, but never leave a fire unattended. - Fully extinguish the fire before leaving or going to bed. - Firewood is not provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own or use any leftovers from previous guests. -*Burn bans may apply during dry seasons—if there’s a restriction, we’ll notify you. - Grill Use: - Clean up after grilling—no one likes a greasy surprise! - Turn off the propane after use (if using a gas grill). - Let the grill cool completely before covering it. --- 7️⃣ WiFi & Tech Stuff 📶 - Do NOT unplug the WiFi—it runs through 3 Netgear routers so you can stream, work, and TikTok in peace. - If there’s a WiFi issue, message us before unplugging anything! --- 8️⃣ Safety & Security 🔒 - Lock all doors & windows when leaving. - Outdoor Cameras: - Security cameras are located at the front entrance & parking area for safety (and because the insurance company likes them). - The back deck camera is OFF during guest stays for privacy. - There are NO cameras inside the home or in private guest spaces. - If you see the cameras, don’t worry—we’re probably just snoozing **100 Ring notifications about a squirrel**. 🐿️😂 --- 9️⃣ Cleanliness & Property Care 🧹 - Leave the place how you found it—or at least close. We don’t expect military-level tidiness, but no one likes coming home to a mess. - Dishes: If you use it, wash it. - Trash Take it to the bins before check-out. --- 🔟 Check-Out = Time to Say Goodbye 😢 - Check-out is by 11:00 AM unless we approve otherwise. - Before you go: ✅ Tidy up ✅ Put towels in the bathroom ✅ Take out the trash ✅ Start the dishwasher - Late check-outs without approval may result in extra fees. --- ⚠️ Fees & Serious Stuff - If something major happens (**damage, excessive mess, unapproved extra guests**), we may charge a fee. But hey, just **communicate with us, and we’ll work with you!** --- 💬 Need Anything? Message Us! We want you to have an amazing stay. If you need anything or have a question, just reach out via Airbnb messaging—we’re happy to help! By booking this home, you agree to follow these house rules. Breaking them may result in additional fees, a canceled reservation, or us sending a really disappointed GIF. Thanks for staying, and enjoy your time! 🎉🏡
