Enjoy the screened-in porch with a TV and mini fridge, then head to the pergola patio featuring a large outdoor TV, Traeger grill, gas grill, and a propane fire pit.

⸻
🔇 Outdoor Noise Awareness
To maintain a positive relationship with our wonderful neighbors, the home includes a small outdoor noise-monitoring device. It measures only decibel levels — not audio or video — and is designed simply to help keep outdoor activity within local noise limits.
Normal conversation, indoor sounds, or television will never trigger it. It’s there to ensure everyone can enjoy the area peacefully, and it rarely activates unless noise becomes excessive late at night.
Quiet hours begin at 10 PM, and guests are asked to keep outdoor volume respectful after that time. Unauthorized parties or loud events are not allowed and will be addressed promptly.
