Before you leave

Other than generally straightening up, there are a few things we’d greatly appreciate you doing before you leave (if you’re here without Matt or Andrea).

PLEASE MAKE SURE THE COMPOST BIN AND GARBAGE ARE EMPTY!!

We made this mistake once…holy hell the smell is powerful if things marinate for a couple weeks. Please make sure the compost and garbage bins in the kitchen are empty.

Laundry

Please wash any sheets and towels you’ve used. You can leave them dried in the dryer if you don’t have time before you leave.

Dishes

Please have all dishes and utensils cleaned and put back.

food

Please take any food you brought back home with you. We don’t know when we’ll be at the Lodge after you, so things might go bad sitting unattended.

Garbage/Compost/recycle

Please take everything with you when you leave, including any bags or boxes you might have picked up during your trip. Also please check the bathroom garbage cans.

Lights

Please make sure you’ve turned off all the lights. The holiday lights inside and outside the Lodge are on timers, so don’t worry about them.

Bathrooms

Please double-check if anything needs to be wiped down before you go.

vacuum

If needed, please sweep the floors and vacuum the carpet. The vacuum can be found in the closet by the backdoor on the main level.

countertops and tables

Please make sure countertops and tables have been cleaned.

Cleaning supplies

The broom is in the pantry near the kitchen, there are dish cleaning supplies under the kitchen sink, and there are lots of other cleaning supplies above the washer/dryer. Toilet cleaning supplies are under the bathroom sinks.
