Other Things to Note:
📒 House Notes Worth Knowing
🛁 Full how-to guides for the hot tub, sauna, cold plunge, and bikes live in your guest app — open it on day one and you'll be a pro by sundown
🌙 Quiet hours are observed after 10 PM out of respect for our wonderful Brookside neighbors
🚲 Bikes & helmets are first-come, first-served within your group — please return them to the garage at the end of each ride
A Quick Note on Hiccups:
Even when a home is dialed in, the occasional small thing can pop up mid-stay — a finicky remote, a light bulb that picks the worst moment to quit, a hot tub that needs a quick adjustment. The second something feels off, isn't working the way it should, or just isn't sitting right with you, please send us a message. A heads-up while you're still under our roof gives us the chance to send help, swap something out, or troubleshoot in real time so the rest of your stay rolls along beautifully. Hearing about an issue after you've already driven home leaves us with no way to actually solve it for you, and that's the last thing any of us want.
