Check-in is at 4:00 pm Central Standard Time. An early check-in is not typically possible because we need to give our cleaners enough time to get the house ready for you after the prior guests have checked out.

Golf Cart Troubleshooting

• The battery gauge on the digital screen of golf carts is notoriously inaccurate. For the most accurate battery reading, please refer to the red light bars on the side of the dashboard.
• The golf cart should be able to go about 25-30 miles on a full charge depending on how much weight is on the cart during operation. The cart takes a few hours to charge, so remember to always plug it in when not in use.
• If it runs out of charge and you need to push it, open the middle seat battery compartment and locate the switch on the right side. Flip the switch all the way down to put it into neutral (be careful, as this will disengage the brakes!)

🏊 Pool Information

• The pool can be heated and cooled to keep it at just the right temperature between March 1st - November 31st each year (as long as sustained outside temperatures remain above 50 degrees). Depending on the outside temperatures, it could take a couple days for the pool to get to the right temperature. If you'd like the pool to be temperature controlled, please notify us at least a couple days before your stay and we can add pool heating/cooling to your reservation for a fee.

• The pool light is automatic and cannot be turned off for safety reasons.

• Pool cleaning occurs twice per week. The pool cleaner will not need to enter the home. Guests cannot be in the pool during pool cleaning.

Rear Door Pool Alarm

• The rear door has a child safety alarm on it that should not be disabled. 

• Here is how to use the alarm:
  1. Open the door.
  2. Push the button within 7 seconds.
  3. Close the door within 14 seconds of pushing the button.
• Here is a tutorial on how to use it.
