Check-out instructions

The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Remove personal items
Turn off the lights
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.
There are two parking pads in front of the house and one spot to parallel park. Please do not block the driveway. That is for the apartment.
We live in wilderness with a septic system. Please do not flush anything except toilet paper down the toilets even if it says it’s flushable.
