Other things to note
CLEANING FEE:
So there is no miscommunication, we collect a cleaning fee to get the house ready for your stay; it is NOT to clean up during or after your stay. If this is an automatic negative in your book, then sadly this place may not be right for you. So prior to checkout, we do ask you to take care of the following TO-DO LIST:
-start the dishwasher
-throw trash (including personal items from the fridge) in trash bins located outside by the driveway.
-put all used bath, beach, and kitchen towels in the laundry baskets inside the garage, next to the washer & dryer.
That’s it! :)
Please let us know if there are any damaged, stained, or lost item(s) to report, or if something was problematic. It helps us be prepared for the next guests.
