Check-in time is 4:00 p.m. Arrivals before 4 p.m. are generally not permitted. Check out time is 11 a.m. Departures after 11 a.m. are generally not permitted.  Early arrival or late departure without prior consent will result in an automatic $100 fine applied to your reservation balance.  This restriction sometimes comes as a surprise to people who are used to staying in hotels, motels, and resorts. Please try to appreciate the stark difference between the work involved in properly cleaning a private residential home and the time required to clean a much smaller hotel room. It can take up to 5 hours to clean a private residential home (hence the reason for the 5-hour gap between check-out and check-in time). Moreover, our homes require routine and special maintenance which must be completed between occupancies. The only way to be certain of an early check in is to purchase the night prior to your arrival. The only way to secure a late check-out is to purchase the night after your scheduled departure.
