⚠️ Safety, Accessibility Notes, & House Rules
--Homes are NOT baby-proofed (no outlet covers, no cabinet locks, furniture is not secured to walls, no cribs provided, etc). Guests are responsible for their safety.
--No parties, or events – we value the relationship with our neighbors, and strive to keep the home in top condition.
--🚭 No smoking inside or within 50 ft (violations = $300 cleaning fee)
--Train tracks nearby: Michigan City is a “quiet zone,” but you may hear crossing bells. Sound machines provided.
--Historic home = funky layout (limited kitchen counters, quirky game room bathroom). Adds to the charm, but worth noting.
--Duplex home = possible sound transfer between upper & lower units.
--Many stairs to enter + steep steps to the game room—best for able-bodied guests.
🔔 Important Location Notes
--Neighborhood is eclectic & transitional – safe but mixed; police station less than 1 mile away
⏰ Check-In / Check-Out
--Check-In: 4:00 PM – 9:00 PM

--Note: We always try to provide early check-in and late check-out opportunities when possible. (It is simply dependent on whether or not it’s a same day check-in/out, the condition in which the previous guest left the home, and our cleaners’ schedules.) Please notify us if you would like early/late check-in/out, and we will do our best to make it work! 🕚
