The house is all one level. There are no stairs to get inside. To help give your mind a walkthrough of how the house is set up, here’s a brief description of each area of the house.

➤ The living room is large enough for 4 sofas. Two sofas are set up around the TV and fireplace while the other two sofas are off to the side, a great setup for a chill zone. The sofas in the chill zone fold out into sleeper beds, which is what allows us to sleep up to 10 overnight guests.
➤ All 4 bedrooms have a queen-sized bed to accommodate up to 2 guests per room. In the Master bedroom, there is a designated workspace for anyone needing to get some work done.
➤ The dining room is fitted with a large table and seating for 8, and the bar has 2 stools which allow us to accommodate up to 10 people for meals.
➤ The patio has an outdoor wooden table, 6 chairs, and 4 more lawn chairs. Hanging patio lights help set a relaxing mood in the evening.
➤ There’s a fire pit for gathering around the fire. Firewood is sold separately for $12 a bundle.
➤ There are 2 full bathrooms with tubs and showers. One in the master bedroom and one in the hallway.

➤ Guests will have access to the entire home except for the garage which is set aside as our maid and maintenance closet.

➤ The Front door has an electronic smart lock, so no physical keys are needed to get checked in! We will provide the 4-digit code with the check-in instructions before arrival, If there are any issues, we'll be able to unlock or lock it remotely.
