that embraces a "pay it forward" attitude maintaining the loveliness of the house for the next century.

-Wipe your shoes on the door mats and take your shoes off when you enter the house. The floors are the original long-leaf pine and are over 120 years old.
-Please only use the cleaning products provided. They work great and wont scratch or damage any parts of the house or the contents in it.
-Please recycle. The recycling bin is on the east side of the house near the deck. We are thoughtful about how we use our natural resources and want to be good stewards of the house and of the planet. Recycling Day is Monday. If your stay includes a weekend and/or a Monday, please put the recycling out on the street for the city to collect it.
-Please use the pullout trash container in the kitchen for waste. The pullout trash is located to the left of the sink in the kitchen. Once the bag is full, please put it in the large waste bin on the east side of the house near the deck. Trash pick-up is Wednesday. If your stay includes a Monday, please put the trash bin out in the street for the city to collect it.
-Please know that the lawn company may come to mow, weed, and rake up the property during your stay. If this is the case, we will let you know when they expect to take care of the property.
-Please enjoy the house! We hope that The Nickerson House is a place for you and your family to make memories.

-Please do not move the furniture or the TVs. There is a TV in every room with an exception of the dining room and kitchen, laundry room, and deck.
-Please do not use any steel wool pads or heavy scouring pads on the cookware, appliances, flatware, or plates. We've provided excellent non-scratch cleaners for use that are also environmentally friendly. Use these and feel good that you'll be helping the planet and paying it forward to the next guest when you use what's been provided for you.
-Please do not use cooking spray on the bronze-colored cookware. The manufacturer's instructions explicitly say not to use cooking spray on the surfaces. Oil and butter are just fine.
