Please let us know and keep parking limited to the 2 spaces in the driveway. *You are limited to parking in two designated parking spots on the right side of the driveway. The driveway does need to stay clear at all times! Any extra cars can park down the street at the park during the day only. **Right now there is construction going on behind the house. The gate is closed and you will see construction workers coming and going during the day. The back deck is usable at all times but is more peaceful during the evenings. There may be some noise during the day due to this. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Interaction with Guests: We are available via messenger or phone/text to help with anything you need, we're located across town so you likely won't actually see us.
