Door Locks

The door locks have custom access codes unique to your stay. Wake the screen by touching the Yale logo. Once the numbers appear, enter your code followed by the check mark. Lock the door from outside by pressing the Yale logo again.

Check-in Procedure

Check-in is at or after 4:00 p.m. unless otherwise arranged. You will check in using your door code. Please inspect the home upon arrival and let us know if anything appears amiss.

Fireplace

Use the grey remote to control the fireplace like a thermostat. If the remote doesn’t work, open the panel at the bottom and flip the left switch to “on.” Return it to “off” when done. Always turn it off before checkout.

Heaters

Wall heaters have room thermostats. Living room has A/Cs in warmer months. Use Google voice commands like “Ok Google, set temperature to 68 degrees.” The Lounge has a dial-controlled heater.

Dogs

The backyard is fenced. Please pick up waste and dry dogs off before coming indoors. You may use our towels, but bringing your own helps avoid stains and potential fees.

Bath Essentials

We provide towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body soap.

Kitchen Basics

The kitchen includes cookware, dishes, Keurig, blender, toaster oven, and more. A water pitcher is in the fridge. Cleaning supplies are under the sink.

Lights

Most lights are voice-controlled via Google. Labels help identify names. Try “Hey Google, turn off Sea star light.” Cabinet and porch lights can also be voice or manually controlled.

Google Home Speakers

Use smart speakers for music, alarms, weather, and more. Don’t connect your account. More info: Google Nest Help.

Batteries

Remotes use rechargeable batteries. A charger and extras are in the cabinet above the stove. Don’t throw them away or use them in personal devices.
