House Rules

Things to note:

Whole Home - When renting 100 Maple, you will have access to the whole home and property with the exception of two closets that we use for cleaning supplies and our personal belongings. We are available to answer any questions or assist you via phone or email, and have a team available to resolve any immediate issues that may occur. We love our time at Maple and want yours to be just as enjoyable. Let us know if there is something we can do or if something during your stay is not as expected so we can get it right.

Security - There are security cameras facing away from the house for insurance purposes and to monitor activity when the property is vacant. There is an HOA Patrol that keeps the private roads of the Subdivision safe and open to vehicular traffic (downed trees, snow drifts, etc), assists motorists, and monitors the neighborhood.

Wildlife - Proximity to nature and outdoor activities is a huge draw of the home and does mean that you may encounter wildlife during your stay at Maple. You may see deer, bears, coyote, birds, rabbits, insects, and other creatures. Following house rules should minimize negative interactions with wildlife.

Snow Clearing - In the event of significant snowfall, Sky Bryce Association does a great job keeping the main roads as well as the front and back streets that the home sits on clear. Note: this does not include walkways to the home. Deicer and shovels are in the home should you need them, however, we rarely get enough snowfall to be a large issue. 

Recycling - Recycling bins are provided for your convenience, should you wish to use them, however, there is no recycling pickup available for Sky Bryce Association. Guests who wish to recycle their items can do so at Route 263 Recycling Center - East on Route 263 (Orkney Grade) going toward Mt Jackson and I-81. Unfortunately, any recycling left in the home will be discarded with the regular trash pickup.

By booking 100 Maple, you are agreeing to follow and comply with all house and HOA rules listed here and in the rental agreement. A rental agreement must be signed before access to the home will be provided. Failure to follow these rules and warnings may result in fees, fines, personal injury, damage to the property, and/or the termination of your stay.

1. Please be a considerate neighbor and observe quiet hours between 11:00 pm and 7:00 am.
2. Posted Speed Limit on the private roads in Sky Bryce Subdivision is 25 miles per hour.
3. To limit the threat of fire, outside fires are not permitted. Outside grills used for cooking are permissible but must be attended at all times when in use. Fire pits are allowed with the following rules:
   • When in use, the outdoor fire pit must be constantly attended to by a responsible person (at least eighteen (18) years of age), who remains outside and within eyesight of the pit at all times until the fire is fully extinguished. 
   • The person attending the fire must have suitable fire suppression tools such as a fire extinguisher, water, sand, or shovel available at all times until the fire is fully extinguished. (Owner's note: There is a fire extinguisher in the garage as well as in the upstairs kitchen)
   • Children must be supervised and pets kept away from a fire pit.
   • Do not operate a fire pit during windy conditions.
   • Before lighting the fire, all flammable materials such as leaves, grass, pine needles, and trash must be cleared from around the fire pit.
   • Burning of yard waste, household trash, refuse, household debris, hazardous waste, treated wood, junk, rubber, plastics, tires, hazardous materials, oil or petroleum-based products, products of salvage operations, chemicals or animal carcasses is prohibited.
   • Outdoor fire pit fires must be fully extinguished after use.
   • Ashes removed from a wood burning fire pit must be fully extinguished and deposited in a suitable container. Ashes may be disposed at the Shenandoah County Landfill or Citizen Convenience Sites. (Owner's note: There is an ash bucket under the grill outside near the fire pit)

A dog not on a leash and not on the Lot of the owner, is considered “at large” and in violation of Covenant 6.21.
7. All pet owners and those walking pets must immediately clean up the pet’s waste/feces, and then dispose of it in a closed trash container, within the owner’s regular trash, on the owner’s Lot, to help promote the overall appearance and sanitary conditions of the community.
