Your Stay at Faithful Oaks

Everything for a Smooth Stay

House rules, how-tos, and helpful info — all in one place.

The Essentials

Check-In & Check-Out

🗝️ Check-in after 3:00 PM

Enter through the front door using the keyless entry — your door code is in the message you received with your check-in details. To lock up, pull and hold the door closed and push the lock button.

🧳 Check-out by 10:00 AM

Before you head out, please tidy up the property:

  • Place all used linens and towels in a pile
  • Turn off all lights & turn off electronic games in the game room and replace covers
  • Close and lock all exterior windows and doors
  • Replace the cover on the hot tub and lock the clips
  • Pick up all trash — especially microtrash — from the backyard, so our wildlife friends don't ingest anything harmful and debris doesn't pollute the creek
Please & Thank You

House Rules

  • No smoking, events, parties, or large gatherings allowed
  • Please be respectful of the full-time residents — our wildlife friends, especially the deer
  • Please do not allow children to chase or harass any wildlife — this is their home too
  • Please do not go into the creek due to the presence of poison oak & prickly blackberry
  • No open fires allowed anywhere on the property, except the fire table
  • Please keep outside trash cans contained within the locked enclosure — this keeps the wild critters out of the trash
  • Trash day is on Thursdays. If you're at the house on a Thursday, please bring the trash cans to the street in front of the circular shrub — trucks usually come around 11 AM
  • Keep screen doors closed and window screens in place so small outdoor critters stay outdoors
  • If you have questions about your check-out time, just message us through the Airbnb app
Soak & Relax

Hot Tub Rules

🛁 Before You Soak

  • Shower before entering the hot tub
  • Use of oils, body lotions, and minerals is prohibited
  • Water temperature limit is 104°F (40°C)
  • Open the cover by folding the left side over the right side and tilt the bar to the upward position — adjust temperature, jets, and lights from the main panel
  • When you're done, replace the cover and lock the clips

⚠️ Caution

  • Pregnant women, elderly persons, and persons with heart disease, diabetes, or high/low blood pressure should not enter without prior medical consultation
  • Do not use while under the influence of alcohol, tranquilizers, or other drugs that cause drowsiness or affect blood pressure
  • Do not use alone · Unsupervised use by children is prohibited
  • Enter and exit slowly · Keep breakable objects out of the area
  • Observe reasonable time limits (10–15 minutes), then leave the water and cool down before another brief soak — long exposure may cause nausea, dizziness, or fainting

🧰 The hot tub is professionally serviced weekly on Wednesdays, usually between 10 AM–12 PM. The technician enters the backyard and is typically finished in about 20 minutes.

🚪

Access the Property

Enter the front door using the keyless entry — your code is in your check-in message. To lock, pull and hold the door closed and push the lock button.

🌡️

Adjust the Thermostat

The thermostat is in the middle of the hall. Tap it to bring up the controls, then tap the up/down arrows to adjust. Please don't run the fan "on" while the wood stove is burning.

🧺

Use the Laundry

The laundry room is next to the garage door. Hold the washer's start button down until it beeps. Please leave the washing machine open when not in use, and set the dryer to "most dry."

📺

Living Room TV

Power on with the upper-left button on the remote. Use your personal log-ins for streaming — and remember to log out before you leave Faithful Oaks.

🔥

Wood Burning Stove Oct–Feb

Firewood is on the patio or side of the house. Never add non-burnable items such as plastics. Keep the stove door closed at all times, and keep everything — including lighters — off the top of the stove.
