Load and start the dishwasher

Turn off the lights, lock the doors and return the keys
Please set all four of the thermostats to 50 degrees, check both faucets, they leak! A simple adjustment of the handle should do the trick.

Awesome property, especially for our 2 dogs. The fully fenced yard and canal view were exactly what we were looking for. The neighborhood was super quiet and relaxing. The house is not huge but it was well appointed with everything we needed and the host was very responsive and nice..
The host was quick for communication and so kind. The place is exactly as advertised. Close enough to everything but also removed enough to be very peaceful. Loved watching and listening to the birds on the canal. Would definitely stay again and recommend.
