House Guidelines

  1. Due to allergies, we DO NOT ALLOW PETS! Also, a few guests have snuck them and have left stains that we’ve had to cover or replace entire carpets. Accidents happen, so house rule is NO PETS.
  2. This is a NON SMOKING cabin! If you need to smoke, please do so outside and throw butts in a can or bottle. Please do not throw them on ground or over railings. Help us keep the place classy and pretty. We also don’t want to risk Forest fires.
  3. Second floor bed is a Select Comfort, air chamber mattress. It has air chambers that can be controlled with a remote. However, we do ask not to make large adjustments at a time. To make adjustments, lie on the bed and use remote to make small adjustments. (I like sleeping on slightly firmer and use the number 45, Kevin likes it softer, using 30.)
  4. Extra blankets are in Bear room (second floor) dresser, or Trout Room (third floor) dresser.
  5. There are SIX TV’s in the cabin. One in each bedroom, one in gaming room, one in living room.
  6. There should be 1 TV remote for every bedroom. They work both TV and cable.
  7. Fire pit is in yard below. There should be plenty of dead wood lying around to build the kindling. Please make sure you put the fire out before leaving area.
  8. Salt to dissolve ice when the driveway and deck are icy, is in ‘outdoor’ box back of cabin, second floor cabin deck.
  9. There is a full sized washer and dryer on second floor. Use only HE detergent.
  10. Please do not remove our towels if go to a water park. Also do not use for outside cleanup or to work on a vehicle. Do not wash towels with fabrics that will dye them, or you could be charged for replacement.
  11. Please Place towels in tub of your bathroom when leaving.
  12. I do not expect you to clean before you leave. We do however, expect you to take care of our home like it was yours or your mother’s. It is our personal home, and we come here to relax too, sometimes in between friend’s visits.
  13. Washer and dryer are simple to use, however please always leave washer cracked open (you can close closet doors and washer will remain cracked). The washer will mildew quickly since cabin is not used daily, and this helps prevent that from happening.
  14. Coffee pot is under counter in kitchen. However, you have the single pod Keurig in the kitchen.
  15. At the time of departure set Central air for 65 degrees for winter on all three floors. For the summer time please set at 75 degrees.
  16. Please cover pool table with vinyl cover to keep bugs off and keep clean.
  17. Hot Tub can be turned up to your desired level (but they say not advisable above 104*) but turn down to 80 degrees at the time of departure.
  18. Please cover hot tub every time exit. Make sure you UNLATCH it before removing cover! Make sure its covered when exiting. Latch the 4 hooks so will not blow over railings, because it will. UNLATCH, because if they snap, I must find a new way to keep cover on, and I’m sorry, but we will have to keep part of your damage fee.
  19. Please close all blinds on all three floors when final departure.
  20. Outside lights are yellow, low voltage, so you can leave them on when leaving. We have outdoor security cameras that use the lighting.
  21. Please check all doors to be sure they are locked. There are 11.
  22. When departing, GROOVY CLEAN will be cleaning and making sure no damage has been done. Once get OK it is all fine, your deposit will be mailed back. We appreciate you taking such good care of it, and we hope you come back!
