Remove personal items, remove leftover food and drinks and take out the rubbish
Lock the doors

Those who my cleaning people report have done an exceptional job of leaving the cottage and surroundings neat and clean will likely get a refund of $50 sent to them in the mail.

About the host
Hosted by David Garvelink

If you think the property is beautiful now, you should have seen it before the erosion took half of it away (Check out "Lake Michigan Escape," on youtube).
Have owned and loved the; "Garvelink Cottage," (my 2nd home) for over 25 years now and have made very many memories there.
I hope the same for my cottage guests as well.
