Question 8

What is the check-in procedure?

Accepted Answer

All cottages have a lock box on the property for an easy self check-in.

The location of the box and the code to open it for the key will be given when the house is ready for you to check-in. 
If check-in is guaranteed for 3pm you will not receive the code until almost 3pm once the cleaning and final check has been completed.

How to open the lock box to get the key : 
- Manually spin number to line up code along the middle line
- Press down small black button to the left of the numbers
- Pressing down the button will release the box to open - pull the box open towards you.
- The easiest approach is to use two hands - one to press the black button and the other to pull the box open via the ledge under the numbers.
- The lock box is to store the key only
