CHECK OUT CHECK LIST

Check out time is 11am unless you have made prior arrangements. Early check in and late check out options are available whenever possible. Message us through your booking site to make arrangements.
• Make sure all doors and windows are locked and the entire house is secure before leaving the home. Upon check out our alarm system is set automatically when there is no movement in the house for a specific period of time. There is a $500 security alert fine for leaving the home open and unsecure. If anything is missing from the home after your departure you will be responsible for its replacement cost. We have an inventory check list of every item to insure each guest has the best experience possible. After each check out a physical count is taken for your peace of mind. If you like our furnishings or anything in the home send us an email we would be happy to help you find out where you can purchase it.

• Turn Heat and/or A/C OFF. Turn OFF all lights, appliances, and the gas to the BBQ. If you opted for the fire pit, fireplace and pool heater upgrade, please be sure to turn the pool heat 5to the OFF position, as well as the fire pit. The fire pit and fireplace keys should be returned to its original location.

• Dishware and cookware must be cleaned and put away OR placed neatly in the dishwasher. Please do not run the dishwasher if it wont be finished before you depart. Our cleaning crew will take care of that.

• PLASTIC/ACRYLIC CUPS AND PLATES MUST BE WASHED BY HAND (the outside items)

• Place all garbage in bags (provided under the sink and in laundry room) and in the containers outside. The containers are located by the large gate on the Sunrise side of the property. No need to move the containers. They are picked up every Monday by our local Palm Springs disposal company in the morning.

• Lower all sun umbrellas to the down position when not in use and upon departure and place back in the covered area. I am sure you noticed the windmills as you drive around town. Palm Springs is known for severe winds on occasion and the umbrellas will break if left open.

IMPORTANT HOUSE INFORMATION:
POOL SERVICE AND GARDENERS:
For your comfort and convenience we have the pool serviced between 2-4 times a week and the gardener weekly. The pool man usually comes Mondays and Thursday. Both the pool man and the gardener have access to the property, not to the inside of the home. Please be aware, so you are not startled or caught off guard as they come in unannounced.

TRASH AND RECYCLING:
Pick up is every Monday. For your convenience we pay the town extra for a walk in service. This means that the garbage service will take the two bins from inside the gate and place it outside the gate for pick up Monday morning. Monday evening they will return the bins to their original location.

SPA:

If you opted for the heater option for the pool and spa the pool will be set to 85 degrees on your behalf so that it is always warm for you day and night! Please do not touch any other pool equipment. Pool equipment is very expensive and any damage will result in service being billed back to you. Please use the remote left for you on the counter.

SPA HEATER:
You can set the heater as high as 102 degrees. This is a 400,000 BTU pool heater which is extremely strong. You only need the heater on for about 25 minutes to achieve a very high temperature. When finished PLEASE PLEASE remember to turn off the heater with the remote
POOL & SPA LIGHTS:
Pool and Spa Lights are operated from the remote as well.

TV:
The house has Time Warner Cable (Spectrum) and the TVs are smart TVs for Netflix, Roku Etc.
CHILDREN:
CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 17 ARE NOT ALLOWED IN THE POOL AND YARD UNATTENDED AT ANY TIME. ADULT SUPERVISION IS REQUIRED AT ALL TIMES. Of course swim at your own risk.

PETS:
I am one of the biggest animal lovers around. We want to keep your pets safe 100% of the time. Please DO NOT under any circumstance leave your animals outside unattended. You are in the desert. Your animal will become pray to one of our local and normally harmless mountain animals that come down looking for food. Not to mention it gets VERY HOT in the sun year round. Your pet belongs inside. Unfortunately, we do not allow any other animal besides dogs at this property. There is a fee of $250 for animal waste left on the property and a $250 excessive cleaning fee if there is dog hair on the furniture. Please be responsible and ask your pet to stay off the furniture and enjoy his or her dog bed. Please no pups in the pool...

Please be sure to let us know before you arrive if you will have any pups with you (maximum 1 unless otherwise noted). Our gardeners and pool guys come on specific days but sometimes they adjust their days to accommodate the rental schedule, holidays and weather. We are not responsible for any issues while your pets are on property.

BBQ:
The BBQ has a refillable propane tank. If you run out of propane and need it replaced before we can get a new one to you, please send us the receipt and we will reimburse you for the gas.

WATERFALL:
Our waterfall is an amazing 25’ wall of tranquil water. The lights are automated and come on between 730pm and 2am every day.
