House Rules:

- Leave your fancy footwear at the door, Cinderella.

- Ah, the squeegee dance! Please grace our shower glass doors with a squeegee serenade after each shower. They love it!

- Lean, mean, fighting machines only! Absolutely no leaning on the railing. It's a balancing act we'd rather not witness.

- Sorry, folks, no parties or events allowed. We're all about tranquility & serenity here, not wild shenanigans.

- Attention all aspiring chemists: no drugs or SMOKING allowed. Trust us, we're not bluffing. Violators will face the wrath of their deposit being devoured, and potential fees that could make your wallet weep—up to a whopping $500 for smoke removal. Think twice before lighting up!

- Unregistered guests or visitors? Sorry, we're not running a secret underground hotel here. The maximum capacity is four, so keep it cozy.

- We kindly request that you resist the temptation to turn your bedroom into a dining hall. Let's keep the crumbs out of the sheets.

- Time to silence the party animals! Respect the noise curfew starting at 10 PM. Let the night owls have their beauty sleep.

- Dirty dishes and garbage bags, beware! Before you bid us farewell, wash those plates and take out the trash like a responsible superhero.

- Accidents happen, we get it. But if you break something, please channel your inner speedster & report it to us in a reasonably timely manner. Damages exceeding the security deposit will require some financial responsibility on your part. Oopsie daisy!

Pet Rules:

- We warmly welcome your furry friends at our pet-friendly accommodations.
Please note that a per-pet fee $35 per day will be added to your reservation when you book.

- Keep those four-legged explorers on a leash. The neighbors' yard is off-limits for impromptu pet Olympics. Sorry, no gold medals for trespassing.

- Calling all pet groomers: excessive pet hair on furniture or blankets will result in an impromptu cleaning session & an additional fee. Let's keep things fur-free & fabulous.

If you have any burning questions or concerns, feel free to contact us. We're here to make your stay as amusing as possible.

Best regards,
Gerardo & Patty

Perfect spot for parks
So peaceful! We originally picked Hurricane to stay, but realized it would be a little too warm so I looked for a place higher in elevation and am so happy to find this one! Our first day we explored around Cedar City and the next day went to Zion. After we returned each day we sat in the shade of the beautiful yard. We cooked all our meals in the home and nothing is missing. Thank you Gerardo for a perfect place to stay !

Great place to stay
This is a newly remodeled, clean space with plenty of room. We stayed just one night, so we didn’t have a chance to use the well equipped kitchen. The bathroom is spacious with a very nice shower. The bed was comfortable with nice linens. The location is great and there’s a lovely view. I look forward to staying here again.
