Our house rules
- Check in from 4 PM and check out by 10 AM. Minimum stay is two nights on most dates (three on some dates; the calendar shows the minimum for your dates); maximum stay is 29 nights.
- Stay within your booked occupancy at all times: Crossing House sleeps eight, Cozy Cottage six and Magnolia Mini three; Crossing Collective (all three homes) sleeps 17. Only registered guests may stay overnight.
- No parties, receptions or events on site. Registered guests may get ready and spend time together within occupancy and the noise limits below.
- Noise limits: no outdoor noise or gatherings 10 PM–8 AM. Daytime noise must stay below 60 dBA. Keep outdoor voices and music respectful at all times. No outdoor amplification or instruments audible outside, day or night. No outdoor music after 10 PM.
- The fire pit and string lights must be off between 11 PM and 8 AM. Noise limits still start at 10 PM.
- No smoking, vaping or drugs on the property, anywhere at Crossing Collective. The smoking-related fine is $1,000.
- No pets. A $500 fine per pet applies.
- Parking: The three homes have 5 parking spots in total: Crossing House 2 (one covered with the EV charger and one gravel spot behind it), Cozy Cottage 2 (gravel, on the left side of the driveway) and Magnolia Mini 1 (on the concrete pad at the back of the property, at the end of the cul-de-sac). There's no street parking; extra cars can use the free public parking downtown. Exact details are shared after booking. Park only in your home's spots.
- Keep the property and furnishings in good order. Do not move furniture or make changes without written agreement from the hosts. Use appliances only as intended.
- Walk through the home on arrival and promptly report damage. Our cleaners and property manager check and video the property before check-in.
- If staying Tuesday night, take the bins by the main house’s side deck to the curb for Wednesday collection, then return them on Wednesday.
- The person booking must stay for the full visit. For an employer-booked business trip, responsibility and communication transfer to the staying guest after confirmation. The primary renter is responsible for all guests.
- Parties, disruptive noise and disturbance may result in departure without a refund and a $500 fine.
Shared outdoor space & trains
The yard, fire pit and hammock are shared by the three homes unless you book Crossing Collective. Private indoor spaces and each home’s own outdoor seating remain for that home’s guests.
Trains pass through the historic downtown, about three houses away. You may hear them during your stay; sound machines are provided in every bedroom.
Monitoring
An exterior-only noise (decibel) and smoke sensor sends a text if noise limits are exceeded or smoke is detected. It does not record conversations.
