Amenities available at the fully furnished guest house

Full kitchen: Includes a stove and oven, microwave, toaster oven, and full refrigerator/freezer. Also a hot water kettle and drip coffee maker.

Television:  We have a large TV on the wall, but with a fully adjustable wall mount to turn the TV in any direction. We have a Roku system set up that, in addition to regular a large number television stations, also has many streaming channels, including Netflix, HBO Max, PBS, and other premium channels.  There is a remote control that is relatively intuitive, but check with us if you need some instruction on it.

Large Walk-In Closet: A closet big enough for many items, with mirrored doors.

Air Conditioning/Heat:  There is a remote control that is also relatively intuitive, but as with some of the other things, feel free to have us show you anything that isn’t immediately obvious.

Internet:  We have as high a speed internet as we can get and it’s very pretty stable (we rarely have any interruptions).  On the occasion that it goes out please call or text us.  Often, rebooting the router takes care of the problem.  Please check with us for the password as it gets changed regularly.

Laundry:  There is a washer and dryer below the apartment in the garage.  The washing machine is a High Efficiency one, so if you are not familiar with those please ask.  The main issue is that you have to use HE detergent.  Also, it’s important to make sure that your clothes are not bundled up inside each other when you put them in the wash. 

Cleaning Supplies: We have put a “starter kit” of cleaning supplies, paper towels and toilet paper in the guest house.  Please feel free to use them but then please provide your own when this runs out.  (Feel free to grab a paper product in an “emergency”.)

Iron and Ironing Board:  These are also in the garage.  Please use only distilled water in the iron to keep it clean.  There is some on the shelf over the washing machine.  Feel free to use it in the garage if you don’t want to schlep everything up the stairs.

Vacuum:  We have a Shark vacuum in the garage.  It’s very light and easy to carry upstairs.  There is also a smaller vacuum that you can use to vacuum things that the bigger vacuum can’t get to.  We have replacement vacuum bags for that vacuum (the upright doesn’t need bags).  There are all types of attachments in garage as well.

The Patio: There is an outside dining table and bench, along with items below in case you want to entertain.

Barbecue:  We have a four burner Weber BBQ for your use which gets to 700 degrees (in case you want to make pizzas).

Heater and Fire Pit:  We have a outdoor patio heater if you want to sit outside and it gets chilly.  We also have a fire pit that you and your guests can sit around.

Outside Lights:  There are many proximity lights to light your way if you’re coming home after dark. There are lights on our patio for entertaining after dark.

Parking:  We live in a restricted parking area.  People can park on the street for 2 hours during the weekdays, but you need a pass for at night and on the weekends and on holidays.  We have a plastic temporary parking pass you can borrow for occasional use.  If you’re going to be parking a car regularly, you’ll have to purchase a parking pass.  If needed, ask us for more information.  If there is a need for another car to stay at one of the “restricted” times/days, check with us for options.
