We always clean and disinfect the home using extra cleaning recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The extra cleaning will include (but is not limited to) airing and ventilating the property during and after cleaning, cleaning and disinfecting high-touch surfaces after each stay such as tables, hard-backed chairs, doorknobs, handrails, light switches, remotes, wardrobe and cabinet handles, desks, toilets, sinks, bedside tables, and kitchen and bathroom surfaces. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns. We pride ourselves on keeping the home very neat and clean.
From mid-June through August we only rent from Saturday to Saturday (7 day rentals). Check-in is 4 pm and check-out is 10 am. Summer is fantastic here and very popular!
