Settle in and soak it in—Yaya-style.<br /><br /><b>Guest access</b><br />* Guests have full access to the home, both decks, and the fully fenced backyard (with the exception of a few locked owner closets).<br /><br />* The garage is primarily used to store home amenities, but a compact vehicle may fit—clearance is tight and best suited for small cars only.<br /><br />* The driveway fits up to four vehicles and is plowed in winter. During snowstorms, guests may need to clear around their vehicles, as the driveway is plowed but not hand-shoveled. Please leave space between vehicles and the garage doors in winter, as there’s a built-in drainage system that can become icy. Take care when walking in this area, especially during snow or freezing temps.<br /><br />* Check-in is simple and contactless with a keyless smart lock.<br /><br />* There are a couple of small steps at the entrance, but the first floor is otherwise accessible and generally comfortable for older guests or those with limited mobility.<br /><br /><b>Other things to note</b><br />👶 Baby & Toddler Gear:<br />Pack ’n Play, Bob stroller, baby monitor, sound machine, highchair, life vests, toddler carrier backpack, foam bed rails, safety gate, and enclosed 36x36" play yard.
