Check-In:
The house is available for self check-in 4:00 p.m. There may be occasions that an earlier check in can be arranged. Please contact us should you need an earlier check in and we’ll see what we can do. Feel free to park in the garage, the door will be open and the button to open the garage door is on the right.

Parking:
We have ample parking in the circular driveway, garage and by the woodshop. Please DO NOT park on the grass.

Check-Out:
Check-out time is 10:00 a.m. unless prior arrangements are made. This is to allow our cleaners to prepare for the next guests. On departure, please lock all the doors, turn off all the lights and turn down the heat to 56 degrees.

Littering:
As in all communities, we take pride not only in our property but in the entire neighborhood. Ample trash receptacles are provided at our residence. Littering is against our policies and the local laws and ordinances. Thank you for your compliance.

Fires:
All open flame fires must be attended at all times. This specifically includes use of the provided fire pit. Also, if the gas fireplace is not being enjoyed inside, please turn that off as well. Please note the locations of the provided fire extinguishers in the kitchen.

Local Noise Ordinance
HUGE FYI! The next door neighbors can hear everything that comes from the back porch. Not just voices, they can actually hear conversations! We wanted you to be aware for your privacy. “The Neighborhood also sets strict limits on noise levels between 9:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Nearby towns like Lake Placid have put in place new regulations to limit short-term rentals due to guests not respecting noise ordinances. So far, there aren’t any restrictions here and if we all play nice in the sandbox, then we can keep it that way!

TRASH PICK-UP:
Please put all trash in bags provided and then in the toters in the garage. (loose trash is a no no). Trash pick up is on Wednesday mornings, so do be surprised if you see a truck in the driveway.

Please put used towels in the provided laundry baskets
Beds → leave them unmade (yes, really—vacation rules!)
