House Rules.
Check-in / Check-out
Check-in is from 4:00 pm and check-out is until 10:00 am. We'd really appreciate it if you could stick to these times.
If you'd like to request a late check-out, please contact Adobe Destinations or any of the contact details provided in this site. However, please be informed that we may not be able to grant your request.
Parking Instructions
We have ample parking in two driveways (one upper driveway, and one lower driveway). Please, at all times, park in one of the driveways.
Do not park on Camino Del Alba (the road), as it is narrow and is the sole access road for multiple other houses, and important to those houses for safety/access reasons.
Please do not park vehicles in the garage without permission — the garage doors are unfortunately narrow and shorter than most.
A Note About Water and Plumbing
We live in a rural area in the desert southwest. We use a shared well for water - please use water carefully, and conserve where possible.
The house is on a septic system. Please avoid flushing anything other than human waste or toilet paper in the toilets. Do not flush feminine hygiene products, “flushable wipes” or even paper towels.
Other House Rules
1. No parties or events.
2. No fire left unattended, even if the fire is dying out and embers remain. Fire grates must be used at a all times when fireplace is in use.
3. No smoking allowed inside of the house.
4. No unregistered guests overnight.
5. No more than 16 people total in house per Santa Fe Ordinance.
6. Please don’t eat or drink in the bedrooms.
7. Quiet hours start at 10 p.m. every night – the entire community has HOA rules that limit outside noise and light due to the proximity to the opera.
8. Do not use or move any of the Wirsbo Radiant round thermostat nobs (see FAQ for more on heating/cooling). It is important not to alter the settings for the heating because it is radiant heat - turning up quickly or down quickly can cause the entire house system to slow down (and heat less, ironically), or even break. Please work with Adobe Destinations to change the heat if you need help!
9. Turn off the fans, lights and any outside systems (fountain, lights, hot tub) when you go out – we try to stay energy efficient!
10. Please don’t move or rearrange the furniture.
11. No illegal substances or weapons allowed on the premises.
12. No glass on or in the hot tub (we have plastic cups / containers for outside).
13. No pets without permission.
Contact us to request permission to alter any of these rules. We want to accommodate guests where possible.
