Our property is designed for effortless winter travel with a fully heated exterior infrastructure. The driveway, parking area, steps, courtyard, and even the city sidewalk are heated to ensure a safe, ice-free experience. One parking space is provided in the driveway right outside your door. The area is shared and may be tight for two large vehicles. If an oversized vehicle does not fit, metered street parking and city ramps are available nearby. Guests can choose between the grand main entrance on Jefferson Avenue or the convenient back door located by the parking space.



To maintain the quality and peace of our historic neighborhood, we observe a strict non-smoking policy and quiet hours from 11 PM to 8 AM.



Please note: The Maple Suite is on the second floor of the house.



Guest Access:

You will have full private access to the entire Maple Suite and one assigned parking space located in our heated driveway. Arrival is effortless with secure keyless entry using your provided code. For the most convenient entry, especially when unloading luggage, we recommend using the back door situated directly next to the parking area. Alternatively, you may use the main grand entrance at the yellow door located off Jefferson Ave. on the front of the building.
