HOUSE RULES
Please read these rules in their entirety before booking to make sure this is the right place for you.
No parties or events. A Ring doorbell security camera on-site (records the exterior only) can alert us to extra guests and party supplies coming into the home. Guests in violation risk immediate cancellation plus a claim on the deposit to cover extra cleaning and any damage. We also have a noise monitor that does not record. Consistently high noise levels will be flagged and you will be asked to turn down the volume. Both of these policies help us keep the neighborhood peaceful and enjoyable for your stay.
This historic home has very old plumbing pipes. Please only flush toilet paper to be kind to our plumbing system. As above, any need for us to call a plumber to fix a damaged or clogged pipe may result in a claim on your deposit.

This is a no shoes house, so please bring your comfy slippers! All shoes must be taken off at entry. There is a shoe and coat storage unit in the mudroom entry. We charge a $10 fee per rug stain left in the home to compensate our cleaners for the extra work.
