PROPANE GAS USAGE:
GRILLS - The terrace grill...someone stole igniter, but renters have told me they can manually start it.
The lower grill has toggle switch.
There are tanks under/on the Veranda. If empty, take to the MEADOWBROOK MARKET at Greenwald and Hwy 74 for the least refill price.
JACUZZI/SPA - So as not to waste gas, HEATER OFF button must be immediately pressed after spa use. Spa use is averaged at 2 hours maximum use per day. Guest's requests for the pool to be heated will be given the current cost of propane, and Host will arrange for the extra deliveries of propane to heat pool (average 16 hours) each day guest requests and pays for a heated pool.
Remember...

2) Canyon Lake has community Noise Ordinance. Quiet outside once it's after 8pm and dark.
Yellow button in spa...press in good once for 3 pool fountains to come on or to turn them off.
POOL HEATING REQUESTS:
Guests may request pool heating...pricing of propane gas to heat pool an average 16 hours per day is pricey because the propane gas is pricey. Contact Host for details.

About the host
Hosted by Dani
Emptynester having had a secretarial, then Computer Programmer/Analyst career, raised 5 wonderful children, becomes vacation renter.  Having fun with it.  
The eldest of three daughters, I grew up on Chicago's South side in a home my Mom purchased and co-owned with my Grandmother. I have resided here in Southern California approaching two decades.
I enjoy traveling, and have been outside the U.S. to the Islands, Canada and Southern Europe. Too, I have traveled much of the United States. Behind Chicago, I love going to Washington, D.C., especially in Winter, because among many things this traveling gives me a reason to wear my wool, wool-blends, corduroys, leathers and furs. Though I have resided in So Cal sometime now, I will always be a mid-western, Chicago lady.
