We have a personal garage on this property so you will likely see us come in or out but our access to the living area of the house will be limited to attending to the needs of our guests. We may however use the separate entrance to access the basement if we absolutely need to during your stay. Right now that may be more necessary because we are working on finishing the basement so we can offer a washer/dryer on site in the near future, but please know that we make every effort to work on this phase of our remodel during times of vacancy. You are welcome to drop in the garage and say hi if we are there as we will surely be working on our latest project. We will do our best to respect the privacy of our guests in our coming and going. You can call our phone during your stay if needed or contact us through the app or email. We are in a neighborhood with neighbors in close proximity to the house. Please respect their privacy and know that yours will be respected in return. We have been renovating this property for nearly a year and haven’t had any problems with any of the neighbors ourselves. We have always found them helpful and kind. Convenient to 460, less than a mile from the light in Narrows. Before and during your stay you can check out “Christy’s” guidebook here in the airBNB app for some nearby highlights. During your stay there are pamphlets for local attractions in the drawer under the microwave. There is a picnic basket provided for your use during your stay…mainly because we are just romantics at heart. Hangers are available for your use in every closet. The ironing board is located in the queen bedroom closet. The iron and hairdryer as well as extra blankets and towels are in the dresser/chest drawers as labeled. There is an Xbox connected to the living room television but you will need to have your own Microsoft account to use it.
